Or head directly for the Wikipedia page for the noncentral beta distribution
(and/or noncentral F). Giles doesn't really do the non-null distribution.
It you really want the mean and SE, you'll need to refresh your knowledge
about confluent hypergeometric functions, though.
I was a bit bemused by Giles' us of the beta distribution of R^2 in the null
case to prove that it is an upwardly biased estimator of zero. I would have
thought that to be rather obvious.
Anyways, as has already been pointed out,
CrossValidated is -----> over there.
