## Abstract We consider in this paper, the behaviour of a class of the CRESSIE READ (1984) power divergence test statistics indexed by parameter λ ‐ __I__ (λ), with the modified __X__~2~ test statistics (LU) proposed by LAWAL and UPTON (1984), for sparse contingency tables ranging from the 3×3 to t

✦ Synopsis
One of the accepted criteria for comparing two independent proportions, in the case of small samples, is the so-called "Fisher's exact test". The authors give tables of P-values for critical regions constructed under the optionel version of the said test. and with the following characteristics: i) they do not distinguish between rows and o ~l u m , with the coneequent ssving of space; ii) they give P-values for one-and two-tailed tats; iii) they contain all the significant critical regions for P-values between 0.05 yo and 10 yo, so that the test can be carried out according to Bonferroni's rule.
