This paper discusses the problem of assessing the asymptotic distribution when parameters of the hypothesized distribution are estimated from a sample, pointing out a common mistake included in the paper by Sinclair, Spurr, and Ahmad (1990) which introduced two modifications of the Anderson-Darling goodness-of-fit test statistic. Their two test statistics modify the popular Anderson-Darling test statistic to be sensitive to departures of the fitted distribution from the true distribution in one or the other of the tails. This paper uses these new test statistics to develop tests of fit for the normal and exponential distributions. Easy to use formulas are given so the reader can perform these tests at any sample size without consulting exhaustive tables of percentage points. Finally a power study is given to demonstrate the test statistics' viability against a broad range of alternatives. |
