✦ Synopsis

Let Xi, X,, ..., X, denote a random sample from an unknown symmetric population distribution with mean, 0. The observations aresubject to right censorship. The parameter, 8, is estimated using the Kap1a.n-Meier median and various trimmed mean estimators (at a = 2, .3, and .4). A comparison is made between the Kaplan-Meier median and t.he various trimmed means based on the estimated mean square errors. Ten underlying population distributions and two censoring distributions are considered. sored data. Shtietica and Probabddy biters 4, 303-308.
