Abstract
The paper uses a Monte Carlo study to demonstrate the dominance under mean squared errors or quadratic loss of a new improved estimator for some linear errors-in-variables models in finite samples. The new estimator is non-linear and biased in a conventional sense and has a smaller risk than the least squares and the Stein estimators. Standard errors for this estimator can be conveniently obtained by bootstrapping methods.
