The multivariate Wald statistic for a candidate parameter $\theta \in {\mathbb{R}}^p$ isReplacing $I({\hat{\theta }}_n)$ by any consistent estimator of $I({\theta }_0)$ gives the same limit.

Under $P_{{\theta }_0}$, part (a) and consistency of the information matrix imply, by Slutsky theorem, thatConsequentlyusing the characterization of the chi-squared distribution as the squared norm of a standard normal vector.

If $q_{p,1-\alpha }$ is the $(1-\alpha )$ quantile of ${\chi }_p^2$, an asymptotic $(1-\alpha )$ confidence region is
