Abstract: | When a sample of size n is available from a mixture of two normal populations with different mean vectors and a common covariance matrix, SRIVASTAVA and AWAN (1982) develop one-way ANOVA analysis for testing a certain composite linear hypothesis. They show that the error and hypothesis sum of products matrices have independent noncentral Wishart densities of rank unity each. However, they do not obtain the necessary Wilks' λ for testing the desired hypothesis. The present paper obtains the density of λ. This density is doubly noncentral multivariate beta density. The derivation is based on generalized Sverdrup's lemmas, KABE (1965), (1974). |
