Abstract

The exact distribution of the likelihood ratio statistic for testing the equality of p one-parameter exponential populations is obtained in a computational form. Tables of 5% and 1% significance points are given for p =3(1)6. An asymptotic expansion in terms of a beta distribution is also given.
