A sufficient condition on the covariance matrix for F tests in linear models to be valid
Department of Mathematics, Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Illinois, U.S.A
Consider the linear model for the random vector Y distributed in N(Xß, C); X is not necessarily of full rank and C is a nonnegative-definite matrix. This note gives a sufficient condition on C for the usual F test of a null hypothesis Hß = 0 to be valid. A discussion of necessity of the condition is included.
