We prove the validity of one-term Edgeworth expansion for Student's $t$-statistic under minimal conditions: the distribution of observations is nonlattice and has finite third moment. As a corollary we obtain the second-order correctness for the bootstrap of Student's t-statistic under these optimal conditions, thus extending classical result of Singh [Ann. Statist., 9 (1981), pp. 1187–1195] to the Studentized mean.
Keywords:
Student test, Edgeworth expansion, bootstrap, asymptotic expansion, self-normalized sum.
