| Abstract | ||
| The parametric family of transformation suggested by Box and Cox (1964) for construction of a transformation of the dependent variable to produce normality in the analysis of variance problem is considered. A computer program is developed to find the most suitable values of the vector of parameters for this family of transformation. This program is used to transform a data from the literature. | ||
