Under different assumptions, it is shown that the asymptotic distribution of this statistic is either normal or a linear form in chi(2) variables. Finally, its application to testing hypotheses of independence in multinomial populations is given.engjournal articlehttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/009630039400162Whttp://www.sciencedirect.comrestricted access519.22normal distributionlinear form in chi-squaresmutual information statisticrandom samplingstratified random samplingtesting hypotheses of independencemultinomial populationsEstadística matemática (Matemáticas)1209 Estadística
