Numerical results are Presented for the symmetric null hypothesis for different multinomial sample sizes with various cell numbers. Exact power under specific alternatives to the symmetric null hypothesis are calculated and a comparison with the family of power divergence statistics is made.journal articlehttp://www.emeraldinsight.com/journals.htm?articleid=876062&show=abstract&http://www.emeraldinsight.commetadata only access519.237cyberneticsnumerical analysisstatistical analysisEstadística matemática (Matemáticas)1209 Estadística
