Since the two-sample t-test presupposes equality of variances, often a preliminary F-test is advised to check this assumption. However, very large sample sizes are necessary before this procedure behaves in a satisfactory manner. In the present note this phenomenon is explained using second-order as

In this paper, we address the problem of estimating Γ‚1 when Yj ∼ ind N(Γ‚j; 2 j ); j = 1; 2, are observed, the j are known and |Γ‚1 -Γ‚2|6c for a known constant c. Assuming the loss is squared error, we derive a generalized Bayes estimator which is admissible. It uses Y2 to achieve a uniformly smaller

Sequential two-sample tests when the sample size for one of the two populations is fixed is discussed. Two tests. one for comparing the means and the other for comparing variances of two normal distributions, are presented together with the test boundaries. The numerical approach of determining the
