Abstract
The effectiveness (power) of three methods testing experimental error behaviour is evaluated for hyperbolic kinetic responses. The tests utilize residuals of unweighted nonlinear regression, and discriminate between two limiting error conditions: constant absolute error and constant relative error. An approach based on the transformation of the response is least suitable, a method assessing the slope of absolute residuals is better. Most powerful is the Fk-test which takes the ratio of first k and last k squared residuals in an ordered sequence of predicted responses. The Fk-ratio is contrasted with tabulated values of the F-statistic having (k,k) degrees of freedom. The Fk-test is useful also when only few observations are available.
