The goodness-of- t of a statistical model describes how well it ts a set of observations. Measuresof goodness-of- t typically summarize the discrepancy between observed values and the valuesexpected under the model in question. Such measures can be used in statistical hypothesistesting, for...

I introduce the new mgof command to compute distributional tests for discrete (categorical, multinomial) variables. The command supports large-sample tests for complex survey designs and exact tests for small samples as well as classic large-sample Chi^2-approximation tests based on Pearson’s...

A new Stata command called -mgof- is introduced. The command is used to compute distributional tests for discrete (categorical, multinomial) variables. Apart from classic large sample $\chi^2$-approximation tests based on Pearson's $X^2$, the likelihood ratio, or any other statistic from the...
