Abstract

Exact and approximate likelihood ratio tests are derived for certain structures in multivariate normal correlation matrices. Reasonable asymptotic distributions for the approximate tests are proposed and examined by empirical sampling. The powers of these tests are compared with those of previously proposed tests.
