Why does the score test work for values longer in the tail that have a small log-likelihood derivative?
The score test says that we take the derivative of the log-likelihood at $H_0$ and divide it by the fisher information at $H_0$.
$U(\theta )={\frac {\partial \log L(\theta \mid x)}{\partial \theta }}.$...

Different version of Wald test statistic formula
I came across two formulas for the Wald test statistic in a maximum likelihood framework:
One has $(R\hat{\theta}-r)'(RI_n^{-1}R')^{-1}(R\hat{\theta}-r)$, where $I_n^{-1}$ is the inverse of the ...
