De chi‐kwadraat‐toets voor aanpassing van continue verdelingen

Statistica Neerlandica, 1969, vol. 23, issue 4, 277-285

Abstract: Summary A description is given of the version of the chi‐square test of goodness‐of‐fit proposed by G. S. Watson (1957, 1958). This version is applicable if one has a full sample x1, x2,…xn from a (under the null‐hypothesis) continuous distribution. To estimate the unknown parameters it uses (as will be general practice in this situation) the sample values x and not the class‐numbers n1, n2,…, nk. To calculate the asymptotic distribution of the test statistic a more detailed description is given of a method originally proposed by Harper and MacDonald (1960). Some numerical calculations in case of the normal distribution lead to the conclusion that the asymptotic distribution may be well approximated by a x2 distribution.
