Abstract

Efficient Score testing procedures for testing for the skewness parameter of the one-parameter and three-parameter skew-normal distributions are investigated. Approximate percentage points for the test statistics are obtained via the Monte Carlo method. Salvan's locally optimal test is extended and simulation is used to show that the power of the extended test is higher than that of the skewness test.
