Abstract

This paper studies the sensitivity to non-normality of the normal-theory test for the null hypothesis that the slope is a specific value against a two-sided alternative. Edgeworth expansion and thus the asymptotic variance for the normal-theory maximum likelihood estimator of the slope are derived.
