Empirical Bayes Ranking Methods.
Laird, Nan M.; Louis, Thomas A.
Journal of Educational Statistics, v14 n1 p29-46 Spr 1989
Based on the Gaussian model, methods for using measurements that depend on the true attribute to compute rankings are proposed and compared. Measurements based on an empirical Bayes model produce estimates that differ from ranking observed data. Ranking methods are illustrated with school achievement data. (TJH)
