Title
Multivariate normality test using normalizing transformation for Mardia’s multivariate kurtosis
Abstract
Multivariate skewness and kurtosis were defined by Mardia. However, the distribution of multivariate normality test statistics based on skewness and kurtosis is only obtainable for large samples. In this paper, we propose a normalizing transformation statistic for Mardia's multivariate kurtosis. The accuracy of the normal approximation of this statistic, i.e. its expectation, variance, skewness, kurtosis, sample error Type I, and power for chosen alternative distributions, was investigated by Monte Carlo simulations for given sizes and dimensions.
