Abstract
The test statistics of two powerful tests for normality \citep{lm1,mud2} are estimators of the correlation coefficient between certain sample moments. We derive new versions of the test statistics that are functions of the sample skewness and sample kurtosis. This sheds some light on the nature of these tests and leads to easier computations.
