Abstract
Givenk populations which belong to the exponential class, and having specified two positive constants (δ *,P *), an experimenter wishes to selectt populations which (a) exclude all those populations with a parameter value not greater than thetth largest parameter value minusδ *, and (b) include all those populations with a parameter value not smaller than the (t+1)th largest parameter value plusδ *. This paper shows that the probability of successfully making such a selection, called aδ *-correct selection, is at leastP * if the basic sequential procedure,P B * , of Bechhofer, et al. [3] is used. This result includes the corresponding old result of their book (p. 129) as a particular case.
