ESTIMATING USUAL INTAKE DISTRIBUTION FOR CONSUMPTION DAYS...

PRELIMINARY ADJUSTMENTS
  Transformation is power of 1 / 5, scale factor of 10e0.
  The maximum number of observations per individual is 4.

  Ratio adjustment variables are:
       SEQ, and DOW.

  Data are adjusted to Day 1 variance after ratio adjustment
  and in transformed scale.  Original scale standard
  deviations of adjusted data for each sample day are:
          Day 1      113.622
          Day 2      116.63
