Statistics::QMethod::QuasiNormalDist

SUMMARY

            

              
              
use Statistics::QMethod::QuasiNormalDist;
my @dist = get_q_dist(50); # quasi normalo distribution for a 50
                           # item Q sample
            
          

Q methodology requires the generation of a quasi normal distribution in order to provide a ranking method for subjects in a Q sort. This module generates these for Q samples between 5 and 500 items long.
