| Abstract: | In this paper we propose some shrinkage testimators for the shape parameter of the Weibull distribution when censored samples are available and study their properties. Comparison of the testimators with Singh and Bhatkulikar (1978) and with the usual estimator, interms of mean squared error are made. It is shown that the proposed testimators |
