Abstract
Using Akaike's information criterion, three examples of statistical data are reanalyzed and show reasonably definite conclusions. One is concerned with the multiple comparison problem for the means in normal populations. The second is concerned with the grouping of the categories in a contingency table. The third is concerned with the multiple comparison problem for the analysis of variance by the iogit model in contingency tables, Finite correction of Akaike's information criterionis also proposed.

During the last fifteen years, Akaike's entropy-based Information Criterion (AIC) has had a fundamental impact in statistical model evaluation problems. This paper studies the g...
