TL;DR

The purpose here is to provide appropriate diagnostic techniques to aid in an assessment of the validity of the usual assumption of homoscedasticity when little or no replication is present.

Abstract

For the usual regression model without replication, we provide a diagnostic test for heteroscedasticity based on the score statistic. A graphical procedure to complement the score test is also presented.
