What I can propose is rather simple, so it may well be completely wrong (especially as no true expert has posted anything on the topic so far), but perhaps it will be of some use: why not pool data for an individual over time-periods - say, months, or to preserve more information, weeks? (Perhaps

Would there be some cases which the p-value are so difficult to find that it's nearly impossible? Is this a kind of limitation to the hypothesis testing using p-value? Is there any substitute for the p-value? Thx for ur reply. Jerry Dallal wrote: > > I wrote: > > > (1) statistical significan

I´m not sure of how to calculate the R and S-statistic. If I have a timeserie like this: 10-20-25-30-40 =X(t) The first R/S: - just two values. avg of X(1) and X(2) = 15 S= of X(1) and X(2) =(10-15)+(20-15) =sqrt(50)=7.1 R=max deviation from mean - min deviation from mean = 5-(-5)
