On the Accuracy of the Normal Approximation for Quantiles

open access: yesAnnals of Probability, 1974
It is well known that the sample $p$-quantile is asymptotically normally distributed. This paper presents an estimate for the accuracy of the normal approximation. The special intention of this paper is to obtain favorable bounds for moderate samples.

A Cosine Approximation to the Normal Distribution

Psychometrika, 1961
A cosine function is suggested to approximate the normal distribution as a device for simplifying algebraic manipulations of the latter. Numerical evaluations remain straightforward and employ only the commonly available trigonometric tables. A method of visual curve fitting requiring only an oscilloscope is also described.
