Exact Properties of Some Exact Test Statistics for Comparing Two Binomial Proportions
比较两个二项比例的若干精确检验统计量的精确性质
Using exact unconditional distributions, we evaluated the size and power of four exact test procedures and three versions of the χ2 statistic for the two-sample binomial problem in small-to-moderate sample sizes. The exact unconditional test (Suissa and Shuster 1985) and Fisher's (1935) exact test are the only tests whose size can be guaranteed never to exceed the nominal size. Though the former is distinctly more powerful, it is also computationally difficult. We propose an…
