On the performances of some selection precedures for the best population assuming parent distributions with varying tailweight

This paper investigates the relative merits of three standard selection procedures for the best population of a certain type. In large samples, a fourth selection procedure based on L—estimators is also considered. Four different types of heterogeneity of variance are used. It is found that the best selection procedure depends on the tailweight of the population distribution as well as heterogeneity type.
