Özet
In this article, size and power properties of the ordinary and penalized power-divergence test statistics have been compared to test a nested sequence of log-linear models for various penalization and lambda values. 2 x 2 x 2 contingency tables distributed according to a multinomial distribution are considered. The simulation study results reveal that the penalized power-divergence test statistics with penalization value of one and lambda = -1.5, -2 are the best choices for small and moderate samples, respectively.
