A Box-Cox Power Transformation allows you to transform data to match a normal distribution. It is not a guarantee of normality. It is a quick way of transforming data to better fit a control chart.

Bounds on the asymptotic relative efficiency (ARE) of the Box-Cox transformed two-sample t-test to the ordinary t-test are obtained under local alternatives. It is shown that the ARE is at least 1 for ...

We consider a logistic model for binary response data that allows the possibility of power transformation of x; that is, log [p/(l - p)] = α + β x (λ) + γ I, where x is a continuous variable, x (λ) is ...
