similar to: Jarque-Bera Test

Folks, I'm a bit puzzled by the fact that if I generate 100,000 standard normal variates using rnorm() and perform the Jarque-Bera on the resulting vector, I get p-values that vary drastically from run to run. Is this expected? Surely the p-val should be close to 1 for each test? Are 100,000 variates sufficient for this test? Or is it that rnorm() is not a robust random number generator?

Hello, I'm so confused why I can't run Jarque-Bera test on my data. I have 9968 observation and I want to run Jarque-Bera test on them, but no matter how hard I am trying I can't get it work. please let me know what should I do. Best, Kiana [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello R-Users, The following questions are not R-technical, but more of general statistical nature. 1. NORMALITY I built a normal linear regression model and now I want to check for the residual normality assumption. If I check the distribution graphically and look at the descriptive characteristics (skewness and kurtosis are below 1), I would confirm that the residuals are normally

Dear List: I am trying to understand how to use the jarque.bera.test() function of the "tseries" package. A numeric vector or time series seems to be the only argument required. What is the default significance level for rejecting the null of normality? Is there a way to specify different significance levels? platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32

Hi! I know that there is function in fBasics package for univariate Jarque-Bera test and a funtion for univariate Ljung-Box test in stats package. But I am wondering if there is a function somewhere to do the tests for multivariate time series? Thanks, John [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, I used the function jarque.test (in the moments package) on my data set and I obtained something like this: Jarque-Bera Normality Test data: x JB = 4.8381, p-value = 0.089 alternative hypothesis: greater or Jarque-Bera Normality Test data: x JB = 2.6018, p-value = 0.2723 alternative hypothesis: greater I cannot understand this. Please, someone can help me? thank you

Ok I made Jarque-Bera test to the residuals (merv.reg$residual) library(tseries) jarque.bera.test(merv.reg$residual) X-squared = 1772.369, df = 2, p-value = < 2.2e-16 And I reject the null hypotesis (H0: merv.reg$residual are normally distributed) So I know that: 1 - merv.reg$residual aren't independently distributed (Box-Ljung test) 2 - merv.reg$residual aren't indentically

Hi all .. there is no doubt a simple answer to this, but it eludes me. In the first session below ( with jarque.bera.test) you will see that p.value prints with a name of X-squared . This is easily fixed by changing the source to assign a more appropriate name - no name is assigned in the source listing below (the original source code of jarque.bera.test() from tseries).. but what I

Hi! I got a loop where i print out the results of Jarque Bera tests, but I have to put, the p-values in a vector. Can you help me how to do it in an effective way and not just typing in the results to a vector? Thanks a lot, here is the code: for(i in 1:60){ print(jarque.bera.test(loghozamok[((20*(i-1))+1):(20*(i+11))]))}

Hi all, apologies for seeking advice on a general stats question. I ve run normality tests using 8 different methods: - Lilliefors - Shapiro-Wilk - Robust Jarque Bera - Jarque Bera - Anderson-Darling - Pearson chi-square - Cramer-von Mises - Shapiro-Francia All show that the null hypothesis that the data come from a normal distro cannot be rejected. Great. However, I don't think it looks

If I have data that I feed into shapio.test and jarque.bera.test yet they seem to disagree. What do I use for a decision? For my data set I have p.value of 0.05496421 returned from the shapiro.test and 0.882027 returned from the jarque.bera.test. I have included the data set below. Thank you.

The normality of the residuals is important in the inference procedures for the classical linear regression model, and normality is very important in correlation analysis (second moment)...

Let me firstly thank the R Core Team for their tremendous efforts in providing R 1.8.0. My following comment should therefore be understood as an "fyi-only". I source compiled R 1.8.0 for windows with ATLAS (source compiled, too). Everything works fine and R is running flawlessly! However, running "make check" stops during processing "internet.R". I checked the

Dear R list, I do encounter the following problem by generating either a png-file (example below) or a jpeg-file: By employing 'box(which="outer")' a box is drawn, except for the right line. If I generate the plot without the 'box(which="outer")', a line at the bottom in the graphics file still appears. However, both plots are displayed correctly in the R
