Abstract Asymptotic normality, tightness, and weak convergence of the magnitude-Winsorized sums formed from symmetric i.i.d. random variables are studied via a new approach that first derives self-normalized (“studentized”) results and then uses these to derive results for constant normalizations. An application of this method to trimmed sums is also discussed to demonstrate its more general applicability as well as to illustrate its use.
