Suppose X = (X1, X2, X3, X4)T has a multivariate normal N4(0, I2 ⊗ Σ), where I2 is the 2 × 2 identity matrix, ⊗ is the Kronecker product, and Σ = [ 2 -1][-1 2]. Define Z = [X1 X2][X3 X4] and Q = ((Qij)) = ZTZ. Suppose χn2 denotes a chi-square random variate with n degrees of freedom, and Wm(n, Σ) denotes a Wishart distribution of order m with parameters n and Σ. The distribution of (Q11 + Q12 + Q21 + Q22) is:
- 12χn2
- 2W1(2, 1)
- 3W1(1, 2)
- 4W1(2, 2)✓
Correct answer
W1(2, 2)
