✦ Synopsis

Ah&act-Straight line behaviour on Arrhenius-type plots and the physical plausibility of the signs of the estimated model parameters are traditional criteria for assessing the adequacy of kinetic rate models fitted to experimental data. Several statistical objections to independent application of each of these criteria are presented and a more direct model assessment procedure is described which overcomes these objections. Using an example from the chemical kinetics literature as an illustration, it is shown that substantially different conclusions about the performance of individual models may be reached using this direct approach rather than a more traditional three-stage assessment __ procedure.
