| Abstract: | Bayes estimators of the reliability function of the logistic distribution are obtained using the methods of Lindley (1980) and Tierney & Kadane (1986). Squared-error and log-odds squared-error loss functions are used. A numerical example is presented. Comparisons are made between these two procedures, based on a Monte Carlo simulation study. |
