A systematic study is presented of the objective functions applicable to the reduction of vapor‐liquid equilibrium data by regression procedures based on the principle of maximum likelihood. Numerical results are based on a set of artificial x ‐ y ‐ P data constructed so as to conform to the assumptions that underlie proper application of this principle.
