Abstract: | In this paper, the estimation of a real-valued function of the parameter by minimizing the expected value of the quadratic loss function relative to the structural distribution of the parameter is proposed; this is called structural estimation. The general formulae developed have been used to obtain the structural estimate of the bivariate correlation coefficient and of the intraclass correlation coefficient. |
