Abstract: Abstract Given two random variables, what effect does a linear ordering have? We answer this question for more than thirty commonly known families of distributions, including the arcsine, Cauchy, exponential, Fréchet, Gumbel, half normal, logistic, lognormal, Lomax, normal, Pareto, uniform and Weibull distributions. A real data application is given.
