  • Beschreibung: This paper studies conditional properties of equivariant confidence intervals of a location parameter. The probability of covering the true value of the location parameter conditional on the location-and-scale configuration is computed. And the asymptotic distribution of this coverage probability is derived. Finally, the resulting expressions are applied to various confidence bounds such as the Wilcoxon, Student's t and the Cauchy likelihood bound.
