A well known result is that skewness can cause problems when testing hypotheses about measures of location, particulary when a one-sided test is of interest. Wilcox (1994) reports both theoretical and simulation results showing that when testing hypotheses about trimmed means, control over Type I er
In this note, a recurrence relation for product moments of order statistics arising from independent and non-identically distributed variables is utilized to derive a convenient formula for the variance of a lightly trimmed mean when one or more outliers are present in the sample. Formulas are prese
