The meaeuree of dispersion for ungrouped data proposed by Gini and Lienert, which are defined as the mean of the rangee of paire and triplets of n valuee, are generalieed. A family of measure8 of diepereion emerges with weights based on r a n b inetead of the measuremente themselves.
## Abstract A nonparametric test to detect a pulse in monthly data is presented. This test is a maximum rankβsum test. The test statistic can be computed from frequencies or rates. The exact null distribution of the test statistic is tabulated for pulses that last 3, 4, 5, or 6 months. Estimates fr
