Title: Confidence interval estimation for a difference between two intraclass correlation
coefficients under unequal family size


Abstract: Confidence intervals (based on F-distribution and (Z) standard normal
distribution) for the difference between two intraclass correlation coefficients under
unequal family sizes based on two independent multinormal samples have been proposed.

It has been found that the confidence interval based on F-distribution consistently and
reliably produced better results than the confidence interval based on standard normal
distribution in terms of shorter average length. The coverage probability of the interval
based on F-distribution is compared with the coverage probability of the interval based
on standard normal distribution.

An example with real life data is presented.
