TABLE 5.

Unconditional inferences for survival outcomes: (w1, w2, w3, w4) = (0.242, 0.045, 0.526, 0.187) and π = 1/3. Bias stands for the bias. ESE stands for the empirical standard errors. CP1 and CP2 stand for the empirical coverage levels of upper and lower 97.5% confidence intervals, respectively. P^(|bπw|>SE/3) is the empirical probability that the absolute bias is greater than one third of the standard error of the naive estimator
