Conventional statistical methods often test for group differences in a single parameter of a distribution, usually the conditional mean (for example, differences in mean body mass index (BMI; kg m −2) ...

Testing of hypotheses for discrete distributions is considered in this paper. The goal is to develop conditional frequentist tests that allow the reporting of data ...

Huque & Katti's (1976) three conditions for weak consistency of the maximum conditional likelihood estimate are discussed in connection with a two parameter exponential family of distributions. It is ...
