Variance Test for Normality.
Abstract
An alternate method has been outlined to test if a large sample is Gaussian in distribution. Instead of a chi squared test of fit a new statistic W is evaluated using a cross-section sample of 50 from a much larger sample of data. If the large sample is at least 100, the technique yields reliable results which may be assessed for significance against tabulated percentiles of W.
