Logistic Analysis of Bruceton Data

Abstract

A detailed study of the Bruceton test is presented when the logistic distribution rather than the Gaussian is assumed. Included are: Recapitulation of underlying statistical concepts; discussion of the strategy and technique for performing logit Bruceton tests; details of logit Bruceton data analysis; Monte Carlo tests which show good agreement with theory for very large samples, but considerable differences when ordinary sample sizes are used.
