Abstract:
:The Gustafson technique was a significant contribution to forensic identification. Unfortunately, many statistical errors were present in the published articles. It now seems clear that greater precision can be achieved through modification of the original technique. One of the authors (W. R. M.) will report soon on multiple regression formulae that offer both increased precision and technical simplicity.
