On the Performance of Some Biased Estimators in a Misspecified Model with Correlated Regressors
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the effect of misspecification due to omission of relevant variables on the dominance of the r −(k, d) class estimator proposed by Özkale (2012), over the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator and some other competing estimators when some of the regressors in the linear regression model are correlated, have been studied with respect to the mean squared error criterion. A simulation study and numerical example have been demostrated to compare the performance of the estimators for some selected values of the parameters involved.

There are some experiences that researcher come across quite number of time for very large networks in the initial samples such that they cannot finish the sampling procedure. Two solutions have been proposed and used by marine biologists which we discuss in this article: i) Adaptive cluster sampling based on order statistics with a stopping rule, ii) Restricted adaptive cluster sampling. Until...
متن کاملBinary Choice Models with Discrete Regressors: Identification and Misspecification
In semiparametric binary response models, support conditions on the regressors are required to guarantee point identification of the parameter of interest. For example, one regressor is usually assumed to have continuous support conditional on the other regressors. In some instances, such conditions have precluded the use of these models; in others, practitioners have failed to consider whether...

متن کاملOn Mathematical Characteristics of some Improved Estimators of the Mean and Variance Components in Elliptically Contoured Models
In this paper we treat a general form of location model. It is typically assumed that the error term is distributed according to the law belonging to the class of elliptically contoured distribution. Some sorts of shrinkage estimators of location and scale parameters are proposed and their exact bias and MSE expressions are derived. The performance of the estimators under study are compl...

Imputation is one of the most common methods to reduce item non_response effects. Imputation results in a complete data set, and then it is possible to use naϊve estimators. After using most of common imputation methods, mean and total (imputation estimators) are still unbiased. However their variances (imputation variances) are underestimated by naϊve variance estimators. Sampling mechanism an...
