Abstract: | A test based on Spearman's footrule is proposed of the null hypothesis that several partial rankings are chosen randomly and uniformly from the set of all possible partial rankings. The alternative is that rankings are biased due to order of the objects. This test is similar to the Fligner and Verducci test for complete rankings. |
