✦ Synopsis

It is possible to show that the theorem of Fieller yields an exact confidence region derivable from the likelihood ratio b a t . The statement Of m N (1982) that this confidence region is conservative is refuted. Bounds for the conditional confidence coefficient under the condition that the confidence region is a ''meaningful' confidence interval are ~v e n .
