In this manuscript goodness-of-fit test is proposed for the Skew-t distribution based on properties of the family of these distributions and the sample correlation coefficient. The critical values for the test can be achieved by Monte Carlo simulation method for several sample sizes and levels of significance. The power of the proposed test can be specified for different sample sizes and considering diverse alternatives.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
