Abstract
Two tests for the jackknife autocorrelation estimator r(Q2) are evalua ted. It is shown that a test based on the conventional approach for es timating the standard error of a jackknife estimator leads to unaccept able Type I error. A simple alternative approach leads to a much more satisfactory test that is recommended for N > 20.
