Note: Crow’s data set has sibship sizes 1 - 10, and there are nine distinct correlation
parameters, θk, k=2,...,10; θ1=0. In(c) the parameters θ1, θ8, θ10 are collapsed
into θ2,and the parameters θ3,..., θ7, θ9 are collapsed into θ3. |

error (NSE) and 95% credible interval for p, Π, θk, k = 2, . . . , 10 for Crow’s
data. |
