Title: Components of Variance Estimation for the Split-Plot Design
Abstract: Abstract In the balanced two-way layout split-plot design, maximum likelihood estimators and restricted maximum likelihood estimators are compared with the commonly used minimum variance unbiased estimators of variance components. Consistency problems are noted for the maximum likelihood estimators and a theorem is proved showing that the mean square errors of the restricted maximum likelihood estimators are uniformly smaller than the minimum variance unbiased estimators.
