CONVENTION. To prevent the tables becoming too dense with figures, the convention has been adopted of omitting the leading figure when this does not change
too often, only including it at the beginning of a set of five entries, or when it
changes. (Table 23 provides an example.)

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION


The raison d'etre of this set of tables is the same as that of the set
it replaces, the Cambridge Elementary Statistical Tables (Lindley
and Miller, 1953), and is described in the first paragraph of their
preface.
This set of tables is concerned only with the commoner and
more familiar and elementary of the many statistical functions and tests of significance now available. It is hoped that
the values provided will meet the majority of the needs of
many users of statistical methods in scientific research, technology and industry in a compact and handy form, and that
the collection will provide a convenient set of tables for the
teaching and study of statistics in schools and universities.
The concept of what constitutes a familiar or elementary
statistical procedure has changed in 30 years and, as a result,
many statistical tables not in the earlier set have been included,
together with tables of the binomial, hypergeometric and
Poisson distributions. A large part of the earlier set of tables
consisted of functions of the integers. These are now readily
available elsewhere, or can be found using even the simplest of
pocket calculators, and have therefore been omitted.
The binomial, Poisson, hypergeometric, normal, X2 and t
distributions have been fully tabulated so that all values within
the ranges of the arguments chosen can be found. Linear, and
in some cases quadratic or harmonic, interpolation will sometimes be necessary and a note on this has been provided. Most
of the other tables give only the percentage points of distributions, sufficient to carry out significance tests at the usual 5 per
cent and i per cent levels, both one- and two-sided, and there
are also some io per cent, 2.5 per cent and 01 per cent points.
Limitation of space has forced the number of levels to be
reduced in some cases. Besides distributions, there are tables
of binomial coefficients, random sampling numbers, random
normal deviates and logarithms of factorials.
Each table is accompanied by a brief description of what is
tabulated and, where the table is for a specific usage, a
description of that is given. With the exception of Table 26,
no attempt has been made to provide accounts of other statistical procedures that use the tables or to illustate their use with
numerical examples, it being felt that these are more appropriate
in an accompanying text or otherwise provided by the teacher.
The choice of which tables to include has been influenced
by the student's need to follow prescribed syllabuses and to
pass the associated examinations. The inclusion of a table does
not therefore imply the authors' endorsement of the technique
associated with it. This is true of some significance tests, which
could be more informatively replaced by robust estimates of the
parameter being tested, together with a standard error.

All significance tests are dubious because the interpretation to be placed on the phrase 'significant at 5%' depends on
the sample size: it is more indicative of the falsity of the null
hypothesis with a small sample than with a large one. In
addition, any test of the hypothesis that a parameter takes a
specified value is dubious because significance at a prescribed
level can generally be achieved by taking a large enough
sample (cf. M. H. DeGroot, Probability and Statistics (1975),
Addison-Wesley, p. 421).
All the values here are exact to the number of places given,
except that in Table 14 the values for n > 17 were calculated by
an Edgeworth series approximation described in 'Critical values
of the coefficient of rank correlation for testing the hypothesis
of independence' by G. J. Glasser and R. F. Winter, Biometrika
48 (1961), pp. 444-8.
Nearly all the tables have been newly computed for this
publication and compared with existing compilations: the
exceptions, in which we have used material from other sources,
are listed below:
Table 14, n = 12 to 16, is taken from 'The null distribution
of Spearman's S when n = 13(1)16', by A. Otten, Statistica Neerlandica, 27 (1973), pp. 19-20, by permission of the
editor.
Table 24, k = 6, n = 5 and 6, is taken from 'Extended
tables of the distribution of Friedman's S-statistic in the
two-way layout', by Robert E. Odeh, Commun. Statist.
Simula Computa., B6 (I), 29-48 (1977), by permission of
Marcel Dekker, Inc., and from Table 39 of The Pocket Book
of Statistical Tables, by Robert E. Odeh, Donald B. Owen,
Z. W. Birnbaum and Lloyd Fisher, Marcel Dekker (1977),
by permission of Marcel Dekker, Inc.
Table 25, k = 3, 4, 5, is partly taken from 'Exact probability levels for the KruskalWallis test', by Ronald L. Iman,
Dana Quade and Douglas A. Alexander, Selected Tables in
Mathematical Statistics, Vol. 3 (1975), by permission of the
American Mathematical Society; k = 3 is also partly taken
from the MS thesis of Douglas A. Alexander, University
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1968), by permission of
Douglas A. Alexander.
We should like to thank the staff of the University Press for
their helpful advice and co-operation during the printing of the
tables. We should also like to thank the staff of Heriot-Watt
University's Computer Centre and Mr Ian Sweeney for help
with some computing aspects.

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION


The only change from the first edition is the inclusion of
tables of Bayesian confidence intervals for the binomial and
Poisson distributions and for the square of a multiple correlation coefficient.

The probability of exactly r occurrences, Pr {X = r}, is


equal to
-

F(r

1ln, p ) = (nr) Pr(I

Linear interpolation in p is satisfactory over much of the


table but there are places where quadratic interpolation
is necessary for high accuracy. When r = o, x or n-1 a
direct calculation is to be preferred:

F(o1n, p) = (i - p)n ,
F(1 In, p) = (1 -p)"-1[1 + (n- 1)p]

F(n- iln, p) = 1 -p".

and

For n > 20 the number of occurrences X is approximately normally distributed with mean np and variance
np(1 p); hence, including for continuity, we have

improved by using the formula

An alternative approximation for n > zo when p is


small and np is of moderate size is to use the Poisson
distribution:
F(rIn, p) * F(rI#)
where # = np and F(r1,a) is the Poisson distribution
function (see Table 2). If 1 p is small and n(i p) is
of moderate size a similar approximation gives
-

F(rin, p) *

TABLE 4. THE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION


The function tabulated is 0(x) =

fx
.V2it

dt. 0(x) is

-00

the probability that a random variable, normally distributed


with zero mean and unit variance, will be less than or equal
to x. When x < o use 40(x) = i -0( - x), as the normal
distribution with zero mean and unit variance is symmetric
about zero.

TABLE 7. THE x'-DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION


F,(x)

The function tabulated is


FAx)

jo

tiv-le-igdt
0
(The above shape applies for v > 3 only. When v < 3 the mode is
at the origin.)

for integer v < 25. Fp(x) is the probability that a random


variable X, distributed as X2 with v degrees of freedom, will
be less than or equal to x. Note that F,(x) = 20(xi) - (cf.
Table 4). For certain values of x and v > 25 use may be made
of the following relation between the X2 and Poisson
distributions :

with mean v and variance 2v. A better approximation is


usually obtained by using the formula

Fv(x) * (1)(V-z; - zy -

Fv(x) = 1 - F(iv - x I ix)

where 4(s) is the normal distribution function (see Table 4)


Omitted entries to the left and right of tabulated values are
r and o respectively (to four decimal places).

where F(rlit) is the Poisson distribution function (see


Table z). If v > 25, X is approximately normally distributed

If X is a variable distributed as X2 with v degrees of freedom,


Phoo is the probability that X 26(P).
For v > loo, 2X is approximately normally distributed
with mean 2v-1 and unit variance.

TABLE 9. THE t-DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION


The function tabulated is

- co k I m

ds
svoi(v+i) .

F(t) is the probability that a random variable, distributed as


t with v degrees of freedom, will be less than or equal to t.
When t < o use F(t) = i F( t), the t distribution being
symmetric about zero.
The limiting distribution of t as v tends to infinity is the
normal distribution with zero mean and unit variance (see
Table 4). When v is large interpolation in v should be
harmonic.

Let Xi and Xz be independent random variables having a


normal distribution with zero mean and unit variance and a
X'-distribution with v degrees of freedom respectively; then
t = XJVX2/P has Student's t-distribution with v degrees of
freedom, and the probability that t t (P)is P/Ioo. The
lower percentage points are given by symmetry as - t (P),
and the probability that Iti

If t1and t2 are two independent random variables distributed as t with v1, 1/2 degrees of freedom respectively, the
random variable d = t1sin 0 t2 cos 0 has Behrens' distribution with parameters VI, V2 and 0. The function tabulated
in Table II is dp = dP(vi, v2 0) such that

v2. When v1 < V2 use the result that

dp(vi , 1/2, 0) = dP(P2,

90 - 0)

Behrens' distribution is symmetric about zero, so


Pr (1d1 > dP) = zP/Ioo.

Pr (d > dp) = Phoo

Notice that in this table 0 is measured in degrees rather than


radians.

If

variables distributed as X2 with v1and v2 degrees of freedom


respectively, then the probabilities that F F(P) and that
F < F'(P) are both equal to Nioo. Linear interpolation in
vi or v2 will generally be sufficiently accurate except when
either v1 > 12 or v2 > 4o, when harmonic interpolation
should be used.

(1 - r2) 2 dr = P

Let r be a partial correlation coefficient, after s variables have


been eliminated, in a sample of size n from a multivariate
normal population with corresponding true partial correlation
coefficient p = o, and let v = n - s. This table gives upper
P per cent points of r; the corresponding lower P per cent
points are given by - r(P), and the tabulated values are also
upper 2P per cent points of For s = o we have v = n and
r is the ordinary correlation coefficient. When v > 130 use
the results that r is approximately normally distributed with

TABLE 14. PERCENTAGE POINTS OF SPEARMAN'S S


TABLE 15. PERCENTAGE POINTS OF KENDALL'S K
Spearman's S and Kendall's K are both used to measure the
degree of association between two rankings of n objects. Let
di (1 5 i n) be the difference in the ranks of the ith object;

-51-02(n+ 1)2(n I) for S and ,72,1-n(n t)(2n + 5) for K, and


when n > 4o both statistics are approximately normally distributed; more accurately, the distribution function of X =
[S n)]I[]n(n +1)'

.17---1]
-- is approximately equal to

Spearman's S is defined as E 4. To define Kendall's K, re-

(130 (x)

order the pairs of ranks so that the first set is in natural


order from left to right, and let mi (1 5 i
n) be the number
of ranks greater than i in the second ranking which are to the

A test of the null hypothesis of independent rankings is
provided by rejecting at the P per cent level if S x(P), or
K x(P), when the alternative is contrary rankings. The
other points are similarly used when the alternative is
similar rankings. To cover both alternatives reject at the 2P
per cent level if S, or K, lies in either tail. Spearman's rank
correlation coefficient rsis defined as 1 6S/(n3 n), and has
upper and lower P per cent points I 6x(P)/(n3 n) and
[1 6x(P)/(n3 n)] respectively. Kendall's rank correlation
coefficient ric is defined as 4K I[n(n

For Table 14 the tabulated value x(P) is the lower percentage point, i.e. the largest value x such that, in independent
rankings, Pr(S < x) P/ loo; in Table 15, K replaces S and
the upper percentage point is given. A dash indicates that
there is no value with the required property. The distributions are symmetric about means (n3 n) for S and in(n-1)
for K, with maxima equal to twice the means; hence the
upper percentage points of S are -i(n3 n) x(P) and the lower
percentage points of K are in(n-1) x(P). The variances are

TABLE 16. THE z-TRANSFORMATION OF THE


CORRELATION COEFFICIENT
The function tabulated is

coefficient p, and let v = n-s. Then z is approximately


normally distributed with mean tanh-1p+plz(v I) (or, less
accurately, tanh-1p) and variance - 3). If s = o we have
v = n and r is the ordinary correlation coefficient. For p = o
the exact percentage points are given in Table 13.

z = tanh-1 r = loge (I

. If
r < o use the negative of the value of z for -r. Let r be a
partial correlation coefficient, after s variables have been
eliminated, in a sample of size n from a multivariate normal
population with the corresponding true partial correlation

This table gives percentage points of

D(ni, n2) = sup I Fi(x) F2(x)I,


where F1(x) and F2(x) are the empirical distribution functions
of two independent random samples of sizes n, and n2
respectively, nI < n2 < 20 and n, = n2 loo, from the same
population with a continuous distribution function; the
function tabulated d(P) is the smallest d such that Pr
{nin2 D(ni, n2) d} Phoo. A dash indicates that there is
no value with the required property. A test of the hypothesis
that two random samples of sizes n, and n2 respectively have
the same continuous distribution function is provided by

TABLE 20. PERCENTAGE POINTS OF WILCOXON'S


SIGNED-RANK DISTRIBUTION
cent level if W+
x(P); a similar test against u > o is provided by rejecting at the P per cent level if W- 5x(P), and,
against # o, one rejects at the 2/:' per cent level if W, the
smaller of W+ and W-, is less than or equal to x(P). When
n > 85, W-F is approximately normally distributed.
Formulae for the calculation of this table are given by
F. Wilcoxon, S. K. Katti and R. A. Wilcox, ' Critical values
and probability levels for the Wilcoxon rank sum test and
the Wilcoxon signed rank test', Selected Tables in Mathematical Statistics, Vol. I (1973), American Mathematical
Society, Providence, R.I.

This table gives lower percentage points of W+, the sum of the
ranks of the positive observations in a ranking in order of increasing absolute magnitude of a random sample of size n from
a continuous distribution, symmetric about zero. The function tabulated x(P) is the largest x such that Pr {W+ < x}
P/Ioo. A dash indicates that there is no value with the required property. W-, the sum of the ranks of the negative
observations, has the same distribution as W+, with mean
ln(n+ 1) and variance -Nn(n + 1) (n + ). A test of the hypothesis that a random sample of size n has arisen from a continuous distribution symmetric about p = o against the
alternative that j < o is provided by rejecting at the P per
P

x(P), and a similar test against
level P per cent if UB
/LA < ,I.tB is provided by rejecting at the P per cent level if
UA x(P). For a test against both alternatives one rejects
at the 2P per cent level if U, the smaller of UA and UB, is less
than or equal to x(P). If n1and n2 are large UA is approximately normally distributed. Note also that UA +UB = n1n2.

Consider two independent random samples of sizes n1and n2


respectively (n1 < n2) from two continuous populations, A
and B. Let all n, + n2 observations be ranked in increasing
order and let RA and RB denote the sums of the ranks of the
observations in samples A and B respectively. This table gives
lower percentage points of UA = RA -ini(ni+ 1); the
function tabulated x(P) is the largest x such that, on the
assumption that populations A and B are identical,
Pr {UA
x} < P/too. A dash indicates that there is no
value with the required property. On the same assumption,
UB = RB in2(n2+ t) has the same distribution as UA, with
mean ini n2 and variance 12-n1n2(n1+ n2 + 1). A test of the
hypothesis that the two populations are identical, and in
particular that their respective means /tit, itB are equal,
against the alternative itA > AB is provided by rejecting at

also referred to as the Wilcoxon ranksum or Wilcoxon/
MannWhitney distribution) are given by F. Wilcoxon,

TABLE 22A. EXPECTED VALUES OF NORMAL


ORDER STATISTICS (NORMAL SCORES)
The values E(n, r) are often referred to as normal scores;
they have a number of applications in statistics. In carrying
out calculations for some of these applications the sums of
squares of normal scores are often required: they are provided in Table 22 B.

Suppose that n independent observations, normally distributed with zero mean and unit variance, are arranged in
decreasing order, and let the rth value in this ordering be
denoted by Z(r). This table gives expected values E(n, r) of
Z(r) for r 5 En+ r); when r > En+ I) use

E(n, r) = - E(n, n+ 1- r).

TABLE 23. UPPER PERCENTAGE POINTS OF THE ONE-SAMPLE


KOLMOGOROV-SMIRNOV DISTRIBUTION
n'D(n) d(P). The distribution of n1D(n) tends to a limit
as n tends to infinity and the percentage points of this
distribution are given under n = co. This table was calculated
using formulae given by J. Durbin, Distribution Theory for
Tests Based on the Sample Distribution Function (1973), Society
for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, Philadelphia, Pa.,
Section 2.4.

If F(x) is the empirical distribution function of a random


sample of size n from a population with continuous distribution function F(x), the table gives percentage points of
D(n) = sup IFn(X)-F(X)1;the function tabulated is d(P)
such that the probability that niD(n) exceeds d(P) is P/Ioo.
A test of the hypothesis that the sample has arisen from
F(x) is provided by rejecting at the P per cent level if

TABLE 26. HYPERGEOMETRIC PROBABILITIES
Suppose that of N objects, R are of type A and N R of
type B, with R NR. Suppose that n of the objects,
n < Nn, are selected at random without replacement and
X are found to be of type A. Then X follows a hypergeometric distribution with the probability that X = r given by

Here the rows correspond to types A and B and the columns


to ' selected' and not selected' respectively, and the marginal
totals are given.
Fisher's exact test of no association between rows and
columns, or of homogeneity of types A and B, is provided by
rejecting the null hypothesis at the P per cent level if the sum
of the probabilities for all tables with at least as extreme
values of X as that observed is less than or equal to Pj roo.
More extreme' means having smaller probability than the
observed value r of X, given the same marginal totals. This
test may be either one- or two-sided, as shown below.

p(rjN, R, n) =

(':)(Nn T(Nn)
This table gives these probabilities for N < 57 and n < R
(if not, use the result that p(rIN, R, n) = p(rIN, n, R)). For
N > 57 these probabilities may be calculated by using
binomial coefficients (Table 3) or logarithms of factorials
(Table 6). When N is large and RI N < cr, X is approximately binomially distributed with index R and parameter
p = n/N (see Table r); similarly, if N is large and n/N < o1,
X is approximately binomially distributed with index n and
parameter p = R/N. If N is large and neither R/N nor n/N

is approximately normally distributed with zero mean and
unit variance; a continuity correction of 2 , as with the binomial distribution, has been used.
A representation of the data in the form of a 2 x z contingency table is useful:

From the tables p(1114, 6, 5) = 2098. A more extreme onesided value is r = o, giving a total probability of 2378, not
significant evidence of association or of inhomogeneity. If a
two-sided test is required, r = 4 and r = 5 have probabilities
0599 and 003o respectively, less than 2098; the total is
now .3007.
When N > 17 and nR/N is not too small, a (two-sided)
test of the hypothesis of no association, or of homogeneity, is
provided by rejecting at the P per cent level approximately
if x2 = N[rN nR] 21[R(N R) n(N n)] exceeds A(P) (see
Table 8). (Cf. H. Cramer, Mathematical Methods of Statistics
(1946), Princeton University Press, Princeton, N.J., Sections
30.5 and 30.6.)

TABLE 29. BAYESIAN CONFIDENCE LIMITS FOR A BINOMIAL


PARAMETER
If r is an observation from a binomial distribution
(Table 1) of known index n and unknown parameter p,
then, for an assigned probability C per cent, the pair of
entries gives a C per cent Bayesian confidence interval
for p. That is, there is C per cent probability that p lies
between the values given. The intervals are the shortest
possible, compatible with the requirement on probability.
The tabulation is restricted to r < Zn. If r > Zn replace r
by n - r and take 1 minus the tabulated entries, in reverse
order.
Example 1. r = 7,n = 12. Use n = 12 and r = 5 in the
Table, which at a confidence level of 95 per cent gives
0.1856 and 06768, yielding the interval 0.3232 to 0-8144.
The intervals have been calculated using the reference
prior which is uniform over the entire range (0,1) of p.
The entries can be used for any beta prior with density
proportional to pa(1-p)b , where a and b are non-negative
integers, by replacing r with r + a and n with n + a + b.
If r + a is outside the tabulated range, replace r + a with
n - r + b and n with n + a+ b, and take 1 minus the entries,
in reverse order.
Example 2. r = 7, n = 12. If the prior has a = 2, b = 1,
then r +a = 9, n+ a + b = 15 and n - r + b = 6. Use n = 15

posterior
probability
density
of p

(This shape applies only when 0 < r < n. When r = 0 or

r = n, the intervals are one-sided.)


and r = 6 in the Table, which at a confidence level of
95 per cent gives 0.1909 and 0.6381, yielding the interval
0.3619 to 0.8091.
When n exceeds 30, C per cent limits for p are given
approximately by

x(P)[i(1 - P)/n]1
where /5 = r/n, P = 1(100 C) and x(P) is the P percentage point of the normal distribution (Table 5).

TABLE 30. BAYESIAN CONFIDENCE LIMITS FOR A POISSON MEAN


If xi , x2,... ,
is a random sample of size n from a
Poisson distribution (Table 2) of unknown mean kt, and
r = xi, then, for an assigned probability C per cent,
the pair of entries when divided by n gives a C per cent
Bayesian confidence interval for lt. That is, there is C
per cent probability that /2 lies between the values given.
The intervals are the shortest possible, compatible with
the requirement on probability.
Example. r = 30, n = 10. With a confidence level of 95
per cent, the Table at r = 30 gives 19.66 and 40.91. On
division by n = 10, the required interval is 1.966 to 4-091.
The intervals have been calculated using the reference
prior with density proportional to 12-1, and the posterior
density is such that nit= 1A, (Table 8). The entries can
be used for any gamma prior with density

posterior
probability
density
of p

0
(This shape applies only when r > 2. When r 1, the
intervals are one-sided.)

When r exceeds 45, C per cent limits for it are given


approximately by

exp(-m)s-i ms /(s - 1)!,

r2
x(P)-

where m and s are non-negative integers, by replacing n


with m + n and r with r + s. No limits are available in the where P = z (100 - C) and x(P) is the P percentage point
of the normal distribution (Table 5).

TABLE 31. BAYESIAN CONFIDENCE LIMITS FOR THE SQUARE OF A


MULTIPLE CORRELATION COEFFICIENT
For a normal distribution of (k + 1) quantities, let p2
be the square of the true multiple correlation coefficient
between the first quantity and the remaining k (sometimes called 'explanatory variables'). p2 is the proportion
of the variance of the first quantity that is accounted for
by the remaining k. If R2 denotes the square of the corresponding sample multiple correlation coefficient from a
random sample of size n (n > k + 1), then, for an assigned
probability C per cent, the pair of entries gives a C per
cent Bayesian confidence interval for p2. That is, there
is C per cent probability that p2 lies between the values
given. The entries have been calculated using a reference
prior which is uniform over the entire range (0, 1) of p2.
The intervals are the shortest possible, compatible with
the requirement on probability. When R2 = 1, both the
upper and lower limits may be taken to be 1.
Interpolation in n and R2 will often be needed. When
n is large, C per cent limits for p2are given approximately
by
R2 2x(P)(1 - R2)(R2I n) 1

posterior
probability
density
of p2

(In some cases this shape does not apply, and the intervals
are one-sided.)

where P = (100
C) and x(P) is the P percentage
point of the normal distribution (Table 5). More accurate
upper limits are found by harmonic interpolation (see
page 96) in the function f (n) = Vh(U (n)
R2), where
U (n) is the upper limit for sample size n. For the lower
limit, L(n), use the function f (n) =
L(n)); in each
case f (oo) = 2x(P)(1 - R2) f122.

A NOTE ON INTERPOLATION
Part of the tabulation of a function f(x) at intervals h of x is
in the form given in the first two columns of the figure :

For x = 0.034, p = (0.034-0.03)/0.01 = 0.4 and the linear


interpolate is

xo J
o
x, 4
x, f,

0 '9790 + 0.4

Ai

The additional term for the quadratic interpolate is

A",
A;1

0.25 x 0.4 x o6 x ( 0'0090 0'0087) = 0'001i

x, f,
where ft = f(x) and x, = x,H-h. Interpolation of f(x) at
values of x other than those tabulated uses the differences in
the last three columns, where each entry is the value in the
column immediately to the left and below minus the value to
the left and above : thus, Ail =f 2 fi and A; =
These are usually written in units of the last place of decimals
in f(x). Linear interpolation between x1 and x2 approximates
f(x) by
+PAil
with p = (xx1)/h. This simple rule uses only the values
within the lines of the figure and is often adequate. Quadratic
interpolation between x1and x2 approximates f(x) by
+pA',4 -1p(ip) (A';+

and is not negligible, the quadratic interpolate being 0-9709.


This is exact, as is expected since A;1 at 3 is well below 6o.
The quadratic method uses fo ana f, (needed for A; and
A;) and so fails if either is unavailable, for example at the
ends of the range of x or when the interval of tabulation h
changes. Modified quadratic forms between xl and x2 are

+pevil

20,

Example. The F-distribution, P = to, v1 = i (Table 2(a),


page 5o), interpolation in v2, now x.

Ocassionally, harmonic interpolation is advisable. To do this


the argument x is replaced by i/x and then linear (or
quadratic) interpolation performed.

Example. The binomial distribution, n =

This is generally adequate provided Ail is less than 6o in


units of the last place of decimals in the tabulation. Notice
that the quadratic interpolate consists of the addition of an
extra term to the linear one, so that a rough assessment of it
will indicate whether the linear form is adequate. The
maximum possible value of ip(t p) is when p =
