Abstract
It is sometimes necessary to find out whether one task is more difficult than another although both can normally be performed adequately. This paper describes a technique by which the relative difficulties of two tasks can be ascertained from data furnished by a subsidiary task, which has no adverse effect upon performance of the tanks under comparison.Keywords
