Abstract

The standard (likelihood ratio) test of the general linear hypothesis has been shown to possess numerous different optimum properties. A brief survey of these was included in a recent paper by Kiefer [2]. In the present note it is shown that all of these, and in fact a wide class of optimum properties of which the above are special cases, are consequences of the fact that the test is uniformly most powerful invariant.
