The Variances of Third and Fourth Moment Estimators

Saeed Maghsoodloo, Daniel F. Silva

ABSTRACT

This article is the sequel to https://doi.org/10.1002/qre.70038 where the author developed the third and fourth moment unbiased estimators from any underlying distribution under the simplest static statistical model, x i = μ + ε i , for sample sizes n ≥ 4. The objective now is to obtain the exact variance of the third moment unbiased estimator and to approximate that of the fourth moment.
