Abstract
The distrubution of the reciprocal of von Neumann's ratio is considered under the random walk model, x(t+1) rwis;d xt + et, and it is shown how this quantity can be used to test for density dependence in animal populations. Another test is described which is robust under superimposed errors of measurement. The methods are used to analyze data on Canadian fur-bearing mammals.
