Abstract :Assume that only the lists of upper k-records and lower k-records of a finite sequence are available and the existence of a monotonic trend in location is interested in. In this study, a distribution-free test based on the difference between the numbers of upper and lower k-records is proposed for this situation. The exact and asymptotic distributions of the proposed test statistic are obtained for a random continuous sequence which is independent and identically distributed insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(i.i.d.);. Also, a comparison between the proposed test and some well-known distribution-free tests is made in terms of empirical powers.Keywords : Monotonic trend in location, kth records, Top k lists, Bottom k lists, Distribution free test, Empirical power comparison
