Bias Adjustment for Mean Squared Error Estimation in M‐Quantile Models for Small Area Estimation

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary M‐quantile (MQ) regression provides a robust and flexible alternative to mixed models for small area estimation. However, several theoretical aspects remain underexplored. In this paper, a parametric bootstrap method is proposed to approximate the distributions of area‐specific MQ coefficients and applied to adjust the bias in the mean squared ...
