Normality testing is a fundamental component in statistical analysis, central to validating many inferential techniques that presume Gaussian behaviour of error terms ...
A method is proposed for testing normality, in the case of general Type II censored data--that is, data for which only a subset of the order statistics are available. Three test statistics are ...
We present a test of normality based on a statistic D which is up to a constant the ratio of Downton's linear unbiased estimator of the population standard deviation to the sample standard deviation.
