Confidence Interval Estimation For Intraclass Correlation Coefficient Under Unequal Family Sizes, Madhusudan Bhandary, Koji Fujiwara
Confidence Interval Estimation For Intraclass Correlation Coefficient Under Unequal Family Sizes, Madhusudan Bhandary, Koji Fujiwara
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Confidence intervals (based on the χ2 -distribution and (Z) standard normal distribution) for the intraclass correlation coefficient under unequal family sizes based on a single multinormal sample have been proposed. It has been found that the confidence interval based on the χ2 -distribution consistently and reliably produces better results in terms of shorter average interval length than the confidence interval based on the standard normal distribution: especially for larger sample sizes for various intraclass correlation coefficient values. The coverage probability of the interval based on the χ2 -distribution is competitive with the coverage probability of the interval …

Bayesian Inference On The Variance Of Normal Distribution Using Moving Extremes Ranked Set Sampling, Said Ali Al-Hadhrami, Amer Ibrahim Al-Omari
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Bayesian inference of the variance of the normal distribution is considered using moving extremes ranked set sampling (MERSS) and is compared with the simple random sampling (SRS) method. Generalized maximum likelihood estimators (GMLE), confidence intervals (CI), and different testing hypotheses are considered using simple hypothesis versus simple hypothesis, simple hypothesis versus composite alternative, and composite hypothesis versus composite alternative based on MERSS and compared with SRS. It is shown that modified inferences using MERSS are more efficient than their counterparts based on SRS.
