Abstract

The aim of this article is to present a new test for the detection of size-bias in a sample with or without censored observations. The test is simple in the form and demands only the knowledge of consistent estimators of any nuisance parameters appeared in the model. With the use of simulated samples from the Weibull distribution, we show the advantages of the new test compared to the Likelihood Ratio and the Wald test.
