Table 2.

Comparisons of the rejection rates for score test statistics under Ω1 and Ω2. Three differing sample sizes {20, 40, 80} and 1,000 simulated datasets were used for each case and two significance levels, 5% and 1%, were considered. The null and alternative hypotheses were, respectively, given by H0 : β·,2 = 0 and H1 : β·,20. Two methods including the resampling method (RE) and χ2 distribution [χ2(6)] were used to calculate the rejection rates
