Abstract

In this paper, we present an efficient quartile paired double ranked set sampling (QPDRSS) scheme to estimate the population mean. QPDRSS provides an unbiased improved population mean estimator when the distribution is symmetric and bears negligible biasness for non-symmetric distribution. The performance of the proposed mean estimator is compared to its competitors in simple random sampling, double ranked set sampling, extreme paired double ranked set sampling and paired double ranked set sampling by manipulating simulation process for various (symmetric and non-symmetric) distributions. A real dataset is also studied to exemplify the achievement of the proposal.
