This paper develops a consistent test for the correct hazard rate specification within the context of random right hand censoring of the dependent variable. The test is based on comparing a parametric estimate with a kernel estimate of the hazard rate. We establish the asymptotic distribution of...

In this paper we consider a weighted harmonic mean of two inconsistent estimators to propose a new estimator of the coefficient of a linear regression model with measurement errors. The proposed estimator is simple and it does not depend on any unknown quantity. The approximate bias and MSE of...
