โฆ Synopsis
The limit distribution of Mardia's measure of sample multivariate kurtosis is derived for a wide class of multivariate distributions which includes both the family of elliptical and Watson rotational symmetric distributions. Explicit expressions are given for the higher-order moments of Watson rotational symmetric distributions. The problem of constructing approximate confidence intervals for the kurtosis parameter is also discussed.
