An Objective Study of the Allison Magneto-Optic Method of Analysis

Abstract
Objective methods have been used to investigate the reliability of the Allison magneto-optic method of analysis. Readings have been taken by a large number of unbiased observers to reduce the personal factor. Probability theory has been introduced to determine how much of the data can be explained as random. Minima in fair agreement with Allison's results have been obtained with the usual set-up, but just as good agreement has been obtained with wrong solutions in the cells, or none at all. This indicates that the minima are not a function of the chemical solutions used.
