Counterexamples to a result of broemeling on simultaneous inferences for variance ratios of some mixed linear models
In a recent paper5 Broemeling (1978) extended his earlier work on one-sided confidence regions for the variance ratios of balanced random-effects models to the two-sided case. The extension depends on a probability Inequality which was claimed to be tru We show here that it is false, hence the proof of the main result given in Ms parer is in error W also show Lhat the ntatement of his result remains true in certain special cases.
