Referee's report by George Udny Yule, on a paper 'An experimental determination of the distribution of the partial correlation coefficient in samples of thirty' by J W Bispham

Reference number: RR/26/12

Date: 29 January 1922

Description

Sectional Committee: Mathematics

Not recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. The paper is very good, but presents no new method or results. Suggests the paper might be more suited for Biometrika or Metron journals. Refers to a letter from James Hopwood Jeans.
