Biomedical studies often measure variables with error. Examples in the literature include investigation of the association between the change in some outcome variable (blood pressure, cholesterol level etc.) and a set of explanatory variables (age, smoking status etc.). Typically, one fits linear re

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper we consider the usual test statistics for dimensionality in canonical correlation and MANOVA models for nonnormal populations. In order to know the effects of the null distributions of the test statistics when the populations depart from normality, perturbation expansions for test statistics are derived. The asymptotic expansions of the expectations of the test statistics are given under the class of elliptical populations. Further, modified test statistics with a better chisquared approximation are proposed. Finally, numerical results by Monte Carlo simulations are presented. 1995 Academic Press, Inc.

## Abstract The power of Chow, linear, predictive failure and cusum of squares tests to detect structural change is compared in a twoβvariable random walk model and a onceβforβall parameter shift model. In each case the linear test has greatest power, followed by the Chow test. It is suggested that
