Low Moments for Small Samples: A Comparative Study of Order Statistics
Open accessAbstract
The means, variances, and covariances for samples of size $\leq 10$ from the normal distribution, a selected long-tailed distribution, and the uniform distribution are tabled and compared with the usual asymptotic approximations. The methods of computation used and the accuracy expected are discussed. Use is made of the representation of an arbitrarily distributed variate as a monotone function of a uniformly (rectangularly) distributed variate. It is hoped that these tables will encourage experimentation with new statistical procedures.

Outliers in linear models may strongly impact linear estimators, and some studies may therefore adopt a modeling strategy wherein values are winsorized.
“For example, outliers in linear models may strongly impact linear estimators, and some studies may therefore adopt a modeling strategy wherein values are winsorized (e.g., extreme values can be truncated at the 2.5th and 97.5th quantiles56).”

“Although trimming 1 % of the sample is one possibility, a more appropriate approach for this analysis is to Winsor the data, thereby retaining the small sample size for the D/S category and maintaining statistical power (Hastings et al. 1947; Tukey 1962; Salkind 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
