Abstract

The log-normal and the Weibull are often considered for situations in which a skewed distribution for a non-negative random variable is needed. The ratio of maximized likelihoods provides a good test for selecting one of these. A table of the necesqary critical values is given. The table may also be used for discriminnting between the normal and the type 1 extreme value distributions.
