Data frame Reference: pp 451-452 of http://support.spss.com/ProductsExt/SPSS/Documentation/Manuals/16.0/SPSS 16.0 Algorithms.pdf See also: Suggestion for Using Powerful and Informative Tests of Normality, Ralph B. D'Agostino, Albert Belanger, Ralph B. D'Agostino, Jr., The American Statistician, Vol. 44, No. 4 (Nov., 1990), pp. 316-321

This gives slightly different values for skew and kurtosis to psych::describe(), which doesn't give SE of skew and kurtosis, which you need to test for normality using a z-score
