Con base en las propiedades del proceso Browniano, se proponen tres pruebas de bondad de ajuste del tipo unión-intersección. Se realizó un estudio de simulación de Monte Carlo para comparar las potencias de las pruebas para algunas hipótesis alternativas dadas de procesos no Brownianos, y diferentes tamaños de series de datos. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que, en general, las tres pruebas propuestas preservan el tamaño fijado; la prueba basada en la combinación de rachas, Shapiro-Wilk y t resultó ser en general la más potente respecto a las alternativas estudiadas y para casi todos los tamaños de series de datos considerados. Se hicieron aplicaciones a conjuntos de datos financieros.]]></p></abstract>

Based on the properties of the Brownian process, three union-intersection-type goodnessof-fit tests are proposed. A Monte-Carlo simulation study was conducted to compare the power of the tests for some given alternative hypotheses of non-Brownian processes and different sizes of data series. The findings show that, in general, the three proposed tests preserve the assigned size; the test based on a combination of runs, Shapiro-Wilk and t, showed to be, in general, the most powerful against the studied alternatives and for almost all the data series sizes considered. Applications were performed on financial data sets.]]></p></abstract>
