[R] Shapiro-Wilk normality test

If I get this value of SW test is variable resid(lr3) normal distributed? Shapiro-Wilk normality test data: sample(resid(lr3), 5000, replace = T) W = 0.9953, p-value = 1.355e-11 -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Shapiro-Wilk-normality-test-tp4648236.html Sent

1. Is this homework? 2. This is not an R question. Post to a statistical list list stats.stackexchange.com for such questions. 3. If this is not homework, I suggest you consult a local statistical expert, as your statistics knowledge appears minimal. 4. No variable is **ever** normally

my knowledge of statistical is not minimal .. i was just a little bit confused because on wikipedia i read that the value of SW test 0 w 1. When w is very little then you're supposed to refuse null hypotesis. So in this case, considering the value of w i should accept null hypotesis, but

Dear Kewin, this is just my issue. Take a look at this http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4648278/Rplot02.png I have skewness = 0.16 and kurtosis = 3.3 ... This one seem to me normally distribued but both Shapiro-Wilk and Jarque-Bera test make me refuse null hypotesis of normality -- View

Subject: Re: [R] shapiro wilk normality test Hmm thanks, But on the other hand it just says i cant reject normality, which doesnt really mean it is normal. Wouldn´t be nice to test for non- normality ? if i´d reject that a high level i could be pretty sure it ´s normal... ?? thanks in advance
