Abstract
The behavior of the Box-Cox estimate of power transformation is further examined. Through the asymptotic expansions and small-σ approximations, the exact nature of dependence of transformation estimation on the model structure, the spread of the means and the error variance is revealed. The results are shown to be useful in assessing what Box and Cox called transformation potential of a particular data set.Keywords
