[Original method of multivariate analysis, adapted for comparison of mean evoked potentials: E2 test]

This paper describes a multivariate statistical method of analysis for the comparison of 2 paired series. For such paired series, this test, called E2, is analogous to the generalized Hotteling T2 test, as epsilon test (pairing method) is analogous to Student's t test. Here we give an example of its application to a comparison of curves, in this particular case average auditory evoked potentials, picked up at symmetrical points on the scalp.
