Statistics & Probability Letters, 1983, vol. 1, issue 6, 279-284

Abstract: In this paper we consider the problem of testing a null hypothesis H0 against an alternative hypothesis Ha, related to a trivariate model. H0 is transformed into a hypothesis concerning the equality of scale parameters of three exponential distributions, following Bhattacharyya and Johnson. Two conditional tests for the transformed hypothesis are considered, and simple expressions for the power functions of our tests are obtained.
