- Abstract
In this paper, we present nonparametric tests for the two-sample scale problem. The proposed tests include as special case the B.V. Sukhatme, Ann. Math. Stat. 28 (1957), 188–194, and J.V. Deshpande, K. Kusum, Aust. J. Stat. 26 (1984), 16–24 tests. The asymptotic distribution of the test statistics is derived and its Pitman efficiency is worked out with respect to some competing tests. For the illustrative purpose, a numerical example for a real life data set is provided. The simulation study is carried out to assess the power of proposed tests.
