A statistical analysis of some 386 redshifts is conducted together with a numerical simulation of 100 redshifts to evaluate the possibility that a short-wavelength periodic modulation may be present in the redshift distribution of quasars and related compact objects. A previous analysis by Burbidge and O'Dell (1972) is reviewed, and the inclusion of absorption redshifts in the data set is discussed. The results of the present analysis are found not to support claims for the presence of periodic modulations in redshift distribution.
