Chi-square tests are generally used for distinguishing purposes; however when they are combined to simultaneously test several independent variables, extra notation is required. In this study, the chi-square statistics in some previous works is revealed to be computed half of its real value. Therefore, the notion of Multi–Chi-square tests is formulated to avoid possible future confusions. In or...

this article aims to provide a simple robust method to test the parameters of a normal population by using the new diagnostic tool called the “forward search” (fs) method. the most commonly used procedures to test the mean and variance of a normal distribution are student’s t test and chi-square test, respectively. these tests suffer from the presence of outliers. we introduce the fs version of...
