It is shown that a joint scaling test developed by Tan (1974) is closely related to the widely used standard Cavalli joint scaling test (described by Mather and Jinks, 1971) which was not referred to in Tan's paper. With the numbers of individuals per generation observed in practice, the two tests give essentially similar results. The Cavalli procedure also provides estimates of genetical parameters and is more readily extended to a wider range of situations.
结果表明，Tan（1974年）开发的联合尺度检验与广泛使用的标准卡瓦利联合尺度检验（由Mather和Jinks在1971年描述）密切相关，Tan的论文中未提及该标准检验。根据实际观察到的每代个体数量，这两种检验给出的结果基本相似。卡瓦利方法还提供了遗传参数的估计值，并且更容易扩展到更广泛的情况。
