Test of Structure of a Covariance Matrix given by Srivastava 2005

Srivastava2005(x, Sigma = "identity", ...)

## Arguments

x data Population covariance matrix other options passed to covTest method

## Value

A list with class "htest" containing the following components:

 statistic the value of equality of covariance test statistic parameter the degrees of freedom for the chi-squared statistic p.value the p=value for the test estimate the estimated covariances if less than 5 dimensions null.value the specified hypothesized value of the covariance difference alternative a character string describing the alternative hyposthesis method a character string indicating what type of equality of covariance test was performed

## Details

The structureCovariances function is a wrapper function that formats the data for the specific covTest functions.
