Abstract
Preliminary test estimators are defined for estimating vector parameters. This note illustrates the use of the Rao-Blackwell theorem for uniformly reducing the risk of these estimators when one is based upon the sufficient statistic. The results given are valid for a class of risk functions, including the generalized mean squared error, the trace, and the largest characteristic root.
