This paper is a further study of the five parameter type I generalized half logistic distribution. We derived some properties of the distribution. Estimation of the parameters of the distribution under complete observation was studied using the maximum likelihood method. To assess the flexibility of the distribution, it was applied to a real lifetime data and the results when compared to the sub-models showed that the five parameter type I generalized half logistic distribution performed best.

The ranked set sampling (RSS) is a cost-effective method of sampling that can be used in a wide range of statistical problems. In this paper, the shape and the scale parameters of Nadarajah-Haghighi extension of the exponential distribution are estimated based on a simple random sample (SRS) and RSS. Three cases are considered: 1) the scale parameter is known; 2) the shape parameter is known; 3) both shape and scale parameters are unknown. Observations are done when the ranking mechanism in the ranked set sample is perfect and when it is not. Method of moments, the maximum likelihood method, and a modification of the maximum likelihood method are used. The obtained estimators are compared in terms of their biases and mean square errors (MSE). The results revealed that estimators based on RSS tend to show better properties (smaller bias and MSE) relative to their SRS counterparts, regardless of the quality of the ranking.
