Title:
Certain measure in graphical methods for checking multivariate normality

Language: English

Keywords:

Summary:
In the paper we consider a problem of checking multivariate normality of the observations. For the graphical methods: Small’s and Srivastava’s we define some measure investigating goodness of fit of the points based on the observations to some lines. For this measure we calculate the critical values. We illustrate the methods on the data.
