In this paper we study the properties of the estimator of C p m when the observations are affected by measurement errors. We compare the performances of the estimator in the error case with those of the estimator in the error‐free case. The results indicate that the presence of measurement errors in the data leads to different behavior of the estimator according to the entity of the error variability. We finally show how to use our results in practice. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
