Abstract Kiefer (1959) studied the asymptotics of q ‐sample Cramér‐von Mises nonparametric statistics when q is fixed and the sample sizes tend to infinity. Here we prove the asymptotic normality of such statistics when the sample sizes stay fixed or small while the number of samples, q , becomes large.
