Abstract
Recently, a new distribution, called generalized exponential distribution (GED), has been introduced and studied quite extensively by authors. The GED can be used as an alternative to gamma and Weibull distributions in many situations. In this article, we use the moments of order statistics from the GED derived by Raqab and Ahsanullah (2001) and Raqab (2004) to develop the correlation goodness -of-fit test for the GED. In addition, we calculate the power of the test based on some other alternative distributions. Further, we construct approximate confidence intervals for the location and scale parameters of the GED. Finally, we apply the procedures developed in the paper to real data set.
