Journal of Applied Statistics, 2011, vol. 38, issue 1, 207-214

Abstract: An alternative to conventional rank tests based on a Euclidean distance analysis space is described. Comparisons based on exact probability values among classical two-sample t-tests and the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test illustrate the advantages of the Euclidean distance analysis space alternative.
