Abstract

In this article we investigate less restrictive conditions on the model parameters and the underlying distribution function upon which the generalized order statistics are based, which enable one to establish the likelihood ratio and the hazard ratio orderings for p-spacings of generalized order statistic. Some previous works in the literature are extended.
