EXACT POWER OF SOME TESTS BASED ON MOOD'S AND MASSEY'S STATISTICS

Abstract

The objects of this investigation are: (1) To derive the exact power functions of Mood's (Introduction to the Theory of Statistics, New York, McGraw-Hill, 1951) and Massey's (Ann. Math. Stat. 22:304-306, 1951) tests for two samples against parametric alternatives of exponential and rectangular populations, (2) to ta ulate them for comparable sample sizes in order to get an idea about their respective performances and also to evaluate if there is any resultant gain in the use of Massey's test (which uses more than one fractile and hence is more elaborate) over Mood's tests.
