Abstract

It is customary to use a conditional test-statistic when testing for one parameter in a two-parameter exponential family model, the other parameter being considered as a nuisance parameter. In this note we discuss the Bahadur efficiency of such a conditional test and illustrate the results with examples from a branching process, a pure birth process, and a stable process.
