Influence diagnostics on the coefficient of variation of elliptically contoured distributions
, 2011 In this article, we study the behavior of the coefficient of variation (CV) of a random variable that follows a symmetric distribution in the real line. Specifically, we estimate this coefficient using the maximum-likelihood (ML) method.

Psychonomic Science, 1970 Seventy-two rats were given 0, 5, 10, or 15 small rewarded trials prior to being shifted to large reward for the remainder of 45 trials. Each of the groups which experienced an upward shift in reward magnitude rapidly approximated the performance of a consistently large rewarded control group, and in no case was a positive contrast effect observed. The
