Note that ξ ( Y ; θ ) does not depend on IF( Y ; /; Fθ ). Take ^ to be equivariant,
i.e. σ ( aY1 + b, ■ ■ ■ , aYn+b ) = ∣α∣σ ( Y1, ∙ ∙ ∙ , Yn ), so IF( Y ; ^; Fθ ) = σ IF( u ; σ; Φ)
and
1 / u2 - 1 - 2IF(u; ^; Φ)
ξ ( Y ; θ ) = — I u3 — 3 u

A straightforward calculation shows that V = σ-4B , where B is a 3 × 3
matrix with elements Bij given by
B u = — 2 + 4ASV( ^),
B22 =6,
B33 = 46 + 4ASV( ^) — 4 E φ ( u 4IF),
B13 = 10 + 4ASV( ^) — 2 E φ ( u 4IF) = B 31,
B12 = B21 = B23 = B32 =0,
with IF = IF(u; ^; Φ) and ASV(σ) = Eφ(IF2), the asymptotic variance of
σ when σ = 1. Note that V does not depend on the estimator β that is
chosen. For a given estimator θ = (β, σ)1, let

Taking V+ equal to V+ with σ replaced by ^ yields the test statistic
