Small Sample Robust Testing for Normality against Pareto Tails
Original language description
The aim of this article is to introduce the general form (so called RT class) of the robust and classical Jarque-Bera (JB) test based on the location functional. We introduce the two-step procedure which is optimal for testing against the individual or contaminated Pareto alternative. As a reference for such a contamination we consider different Pareto distributions. We also give practical guidelines for robust testing for normality against short- and heavy-tailed alternatives. We concentrate mainly onsimulation results for moderate and small samples. However, we also prove consistency and asymptotic distribution for introduced tests. We show that as the suitable measure of nominal level of Pareto tail parameter we may take the t-Hill estimator introduced in the article. To guarantee the consistency of the whole procedure, we also prove the consistency of t-Hill estimator. The introduced general class of robust tests of the normality is illustrated at the selected datasets of financia
