Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Chicago, 2012.

In this dissertation, I use the analysis of variance (ANOVA)---an inferential technique that originated in agronomy and is now widely applied in the social and biological sciences---as a case study of borrowed knowledge. Focusing on "lenders" as well as "borrowers," I seek to illuminate the crosscutting conceptual and social relationships that facilitated the circulation of ANOVA and, through it, the professionalization of scientific disciplines. In particular, I argue that ANOVA's migration from statistics to education and psychology can be understood as a differentiated process of mediation: ANOVA was "conveyed" from one field to another by analogical features of quantitative methods, and in "going-between" fields, the ambassadors of the new statistics forged new crosscutting communities of practice that extended their discipline's social authority. My emphasis on circulatory processes as opposed to the more typical emphasis on effects in studies of borrowed knowledge---together with my emphasis on the interrelations of borrowing and professionalization---both draws on and extends the insights of recent work in colonial and global science. Finally, I reflect on my findings and on my own borrowings---from rhetoric and social theory as well as other historical fields---with the aim of contributing to conversations on both methodological reform in the social sciences and the fruitfulness and limitations of borrowed knowledge more generally.
