bonett.test | R Documentation |
This function performs Bonett-Seier test of Geary's measure of kurtosis for normally distributed data.
bonett.test(x, alternative = c("two.sided", "less", "greater"))
x |
a numeric vector of data values. |
alternative |
a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis, must be one of '"two.sided"' (default), '"greater"' or '"less"'. You can specify just the initial letter. |
Under the hypothesis of normality, data should have Geary's kurtosis
equal to sqrt(2/pi)
(0.7979). This test has such null hypothesis and is
useful to detect a significant difference of Geary's kurtosis in normally
distributed data.
A list with class htest
containing the following components:
statistic |
the list containing Geary's kurtosis estimator and its transformation. |
p.value |
the p-value for the test. |
alternative |
a character string describing the alternative hypothesis. |
method |
a character string indicating what type of test was performed. |
data.name |
name of the data argument. |
