A New Test For Normality, Richard Leroy Roller
A New Test For Normality, Richard Leroy Roller
All Master's Theses
This paper presents a new test for normality which is based on a complete characterization of the normal distribution. Motivation for the test is given in terms of a proof of this characterization. The test is derived and evaluated by computer-simulated sampling from alternative distributions. The empirical powers of the test generated from such samplings are tabled and compared to nine commonly used tests. Evaluation of the proposed test is discussed and further avenues of investigation are suggested.
A Comparative Investigation Of The Effects Of Frequent Testing Upon Achievement In Secondary Advanced Algebra, John Thomas Fullerton
A Comparative Investigation Of The Effects Of Frequent Testing Upon Achievement In Secondary Advanced Algebra, John Thomas Fullerton
All Master's Theses
Relatively speaking, few studies have concerned themselves with the problem of frequent testing, and as Keys pointed out, empirical evidence, uncomplicated by differences in the amount of testing material employed, on the effects of frequent testing is, at best, scarce (14:427). Also many studies used tests and test results for direct instruction, thus introducing additional variables. Furthermore, the choice of subjects and disciplines has been limited, the better part being taken from college psychology and sociology classes or high school science classes. This investigation was not an attempt to modify previous experiments, nor was it an attempt to identify which …
Orthogonality In Normed Spaces, Martin R. Mccarthy
Orthogonality In Normed Spaces, Martin R. Mccarthy
All Master's Theses
This paper presents three definitions of orthogonality in normed spaces. Each definition is shown equivalent to the inner product being zero when restricted to an inner product space. The definitions arise from such properties in two space as the diagonals of a rectangle being equal and the Pythagorean Theorem. The third definition shows that the idea of an inner product can be generalized under certain conditions.

Relationships Between Reversible And Connected Automata, Robert Michael Johnson
All Master's Theses
The present investigation explores some of the relationships among special classes of automata defined by Bavel and Muller (1:231-240), Trauth (6:170-175), and Cutlip (2).

Graph thoory has becone such a well Imown and widely applicd subject with nuncrous applications in operations rescarch, coding thoory, gone thoory, physical and so oial sciences (to montion only a few), that it is not neccasary to give a goneral introduction to 1t. Instead wo give below a Burnary of the reaults containod in thia thosis chapterwisc.This thesis contains five chapters which are, morc or loss, indopendent of cach. other. In Chaptcr 1, we study the existence of locally restricted graphs, that is graphs having a proscribod property with given dogrecs. In Section 1.1, wc obtain necossary and sufficient …
