On the efficiency of using the sample kurtosis in selecting optimal lpestimators

This paper examines the efficiency of thesample kurtosisin obtaining LP estimates as an estimates of central tendency for symmetric distributions. Moreover, guidelines are established for determining an optimal value of P based on the kurtosis of the error distribution.
