The nonlinearity of the point pattern indicates a departure from normality. Since the point pattern is curved with slope increasing from left to right, a theoretical distribution that is skewed to the ...

This paper introduces the normal probability plot correlation coefficient as a test statistic in complete samples for the composite hypothesis of normality. The proposed test statistic is conceptually ...

This paper considers the problem of choosing a plotting position to use in constructing a normal probability plot. Previous recommendations have focused primarily on choosing a position so that the ...
