Though multivariate normality is the warranted distributional form in linear models, its usefulness and simplicity is drastically curtailed when one has to evaluate the multivariate normal cumulative. In this paper we examine a number of unconventional alternatives derived from a general class of multivariate distribution systems. We will show that these distribution systems are flexible and closely emulate multivariate normality. Our study focuses primarily on multivariate models that include censored or qualitative dependent variables. However, these findings are extendable to any other application that requires an evaluation of the multivariate normal cumulative distribution. |
