Abstract

Asymptotic normality of linear rank statistics for testing the hypothesis of independence is established under fixed alternatives. A generalization of a result of Bhuchongkul [1] is obtained both with respect to the conditions concerning the orders of magnitude of the score functions and with respect to the smoothness conditions on these functions.
