Given a sample of size nnn from a distribution f(x∣θ)f(x|\theta)f(x∣θ), the Score function U(θ)U(\theta)U(θ) and the Fisher Information I(θ)I(\theta)I(θ) are used to test H0:θ=θ0H_0: \theta = \theta_0H0​:θ=θ0​. If we define the Score test statistic as S=U(θ0)2/I(θ0)S = U(\theta_0)^2 / I(\theta_0)S=U(θ0​)2/I(θ0​), what is the fundamental advantage of this test over the Wald test in terms of the likelihood function?
