Author(s): Malay Ghosh*+
Companies: University of Florida
Keywords: Asymptotic Approximation ; Kullback-Leibler Loss ; Parametric Bootstrap ; Second Order Unbiased ; Transformed Model
Abstract:

The paper develops empirical Bayesian benchmarked small area estimators under multiplicative models. Corresponding uncertainty measures are found. Second order correct estimators as well as botstrap estimators of these MSE's are derived. The methods are illustrated with an actual data set.
