Abstract
Cost effective sampling design is a major concern in some experiments especially when the measurement of the characteristic of interest is costly or painful or time consuming. Ranked set sampling (RSS) was first proposed by McIntyre [1952. A method for unbiased selective sampling, using ranked sets. Australian Journal of Agricultural Research 3, 385–390] as an effective way to estimate the pasture mean. In the current paper, a modification of ranked set sampling called moving extremes ranked set sampling (MERSS) is considered for the best linear unbiased estimators(BLUEs) for the simple linear regression model. The BLUEs for this model under MERSS are derived. The BLUEs under MERSS are shown to be markedly more efficient for normal data when compared with the BLUEs under simple random sampling.
