Abstract

Research was conducted on the presence of discrimination within equal group mean vectors. Two linear and four nonlinear programming formulations were compared through Monte Carlo simulation and two statistical procedures were used to analyze the discriminant problem. Results showed that dispersion matrice similarities or dissimilarities significanlty affect performance in cases where population mean vectors are equal. Outliers and the departure from normality were also determined to be statistically important.
