✦ Synopsis

We determine the asymptotic distribution of linear rank statistics for the nonparametric twosample problem assuming a dependence structure of association within each of the two samples. It is shown that asymptotic normality holds under suitable summability conditions on the covariances of the observations. (~) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
