Abstract The impact of regional mb and MS formulas on regional MS/mb discrimination is investigated using a large number of Western United States earthquakes and explosions. Comparison of NEIS mb values with regional mb values shows a systematic error of 1.2. Additionally, a simple analysis of variance shows that the variance of the magnitude estimate is reduced when log(A) replaces log(A/T). These changes, along with a refinement of the distance correction, yield a new regional mb for the Western United States given by mb = log(A) + 2.4 log(Δ) − 3.95 + cj, where A = 0 to peak amplitude in nanometers, Δ is the distance in kilometers, and ci is a station correction. Usage of this formula improves the performance of regional MS/mb discrimination by a factor of 2 to 6.

A simple analysis of variance indicated the presence of significant differences in the number of categorizations in an object-sorting task by middle-class, culturally deprived, mentally retarded, and learning-disabled children. T-tests for differences between the means revealed that middle-class children categorized significantly more than culturally deprived children, retarded children, and learning-disabled children. However, culturally deprived children categorized significantly less than retarded children, which is the reverse of the expected performance. It would appear that the teaching methods for culturally deprived children in a development town in Israel are so poor that they cannot even achieve the level of performance of retarded children.
