summ. - Abstract
- The paper considers a general class of Bayes estimators for estimating the finite population mean which also achieve design consistency. Some exact results are given where Bayes estimators agree with the Horvitz-Thompson or ratio estimators. For a wider class of priors, asymptotic mathematical equivalence of Bayes estimators with the above estimators is provided. (original abstract)
