Abstract

Prediction limits are developed for a future observation of the random one-way model. If the variance ratio is known, one may obtain exact prediction limits. For settings where the variance ratio is known, we describe a procedure based on the Satterthwaite approximation. The exact confidence level of the approximate limits has been studied by computer simulation experiments. This study shows that this approximation is acceptably for a wide range of cases.
