Abstract
By considering a statistical model for the quark content of the nucleon, wh ere the quark levels are generated by a Dirac equation with a harmonic scal ar-plus-vector potential, we note that a good fit for the ratio between the structure functions of the neutron and proton, F-2(n)/F-2(p), can be obtai ned if different strengths are used for the effective confining potentials of the up and down quarks.
