dc.description.abstractWe investigate the non-identifiability of the multivariate unified skew-normal distribution under permutation of its latent variables. We show that the non-identifiability issue also holds with other parameterizations and extends to the family of unified skew-elliptical distributions and more generally to selection distributions. We provide several suggestions to make the unified skew-normal model identifiable and describe various sub-models that are identifiable.
