Abstract

In this paper a procedure is considered for a new modified goodness of fit test for the normal type2 censored population. Samples of sizes 10(10)60 are chosen and censored at a specified percentage. Cramer von Mises and Anderson Darling test statistics are used with a nonparametric density estimator in place of the empirical distribution function. Tables of critical values for the two tests are generated. The power of the tests for nine alternative distributions is shown. Results show high power of discriminating the alternatives.
