Abstract

(1) THE original German edition of Tschuprow's book on the theoretical foundations of correlation between two variables is probably not so well-known among English readers as it might be, and we are therefore grateful to M. Kantorowitsch for this translation. Tschuprow (Russian statistician, 1874–1926) was interested in correlation partly from the fashion of his time, and partly from his interest in social science; but his interpretation of the word is a wide one, and many types of stochastic relation are discussed.
