Tests for the Validity of the Assumption that the Underlying Distribution of Life is Pareto

Amin, Zeinab H. - In: Journal of Applied Statistics 34 (2007) 2, pp. 195-201

This article considers the problem of testing the validity of the assumption that the underlying distribution of life is Pareto. For complete and censored samples, the relationship between the Pareto and the exponential distributions could be of vital importance to test for the validity of this...

Jarque-Bera Test and its Competitors for Testing Normality - A Power Comparison

Thadewald, Thorsten; Buning, Herbert - In: Journal of Applied Statistics 34 (2007) 1, pp. 87-105

For testing normality we investigate the power of several tests, first of all, the well-known test of Jarque & Bera (1980) and furthermore the tests of Kuiper (1960) and Shapiro & Wilk (1965) as well as tests of Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Cramer-von Mises type. The tests on normality are based,...
