摘要
Young's C statistic (1941) makes it possible to compare the randomization of a set of sequentially organized data and constitutes an alternative of appropriate analysis in short time series designs. On the other hand, models based on the randomization of stimuli are also very important within the behavioral content applied. For this reason, a comparison is established between the C statistic and the Edgington model. The data analyzed in the comparative study have been obtained from graphs in studies published in behavioral journals. According to the results obtained, it is concluded that the Edgington model in experimental designs AB involves many measurements while the C statistic requires fewer observations to reach the conventional significance level.
