| Abstract: | An attempt has been made to derive the theory of successive sampling for estimation of regression coefficient. The situations considered are estimation of regression coefficient for current occasion, estimation of change of regression coefficients over two occasions and estimation of average of regression coefficients over two occasions. The expressions of optimum estimators along with their variances have been worked out. On comparing their efficiencies empirically, it has been observed that similar to the estimation of mean, successive sampling can also be used with advantage for estimation of regression coefficient. |
