Percentile Study of χ Distribution. Application to Response Time Data

Mathematics, 2020
As a continuation of our previous work, where a Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution was found to model a collective’s reaction times, in this work we will carry out a percentile study of the χ distribution for some freedom ranging from k = 2 to k = 10.
