Abstract

In the paper an asymptotic expansion (a.e.) for distribution functions (d.f’s) of Neyman’s C(α) test statistics to order n−1/2 (with a remainder 0(n−1/2) is obtained under weaker conditions than previously known (Theorem 2.2). The proof is based on a special theorem giving an a.e.for the d.f. of a statistic admitting a stochastic expansion (Theorem 2.1).
