โฆ Synopsis
We propose methods of constructing confidence intervals for endpoints of a distribution. Under a mild condition on the tail of distribution, asymptotically correct confidence intervals are derived by bootstrapping Weissman's (Comm. Statist. Theory Method A 10 (1981) 549-557) statistics. It is also shown that a modification of this method works for type II censored data.

Methods exist for inference concerning the sensitivity of one or more tests for "xed levels of speci"city, taking into account the variability in the sensitivity due to variability in the test va
