## Abstract In this article we give a simple procedure to determine the exact distribution of the likelihood ratio test of a statistical hypothesis regarding the parameter of the uniform distribution. The resulting distribution will be shown to serve as an approximation to the distribution of the l

β¦ Synopsis
This paper is concerned with investigation into the behavior of the likelihood ratio test statistic G2 when the alternative hypothesis M ( Q ) is the true model. Exact moments of G2 are computed empirically and three approximations are considered for approximating the non-null distribution of G2. Our results show that the two parameter gamma distribution provides a closer approximation to the exact powers of G'. A randomized procedure was employed to obtain critical values based on loo0 simulated samples.
