Abstract
Asymptotic normality of linear rank statistics for testing the hypothesis of independence is established both under fixed alternatives (or the null hypothesis) and under converging alternatives. The results of Ruymgaart, Shorack and van Zwet [14] are used to obtain a further weakening of the smoothness conditions on the score functions. In the present case the score functions are allowed to have a finite number of discontinuities of the first kind. The results of the present paper and of the paper [14] will be summarized in the author's thesis [13].
