【 摘 要 】

In a multiple linear regression model, the ordinary least squares estimator is inefficient when the multicollinearity problem exists. Many authors have proposed different estimators to overcome the multicollinearity problem for linear regression models. This paper introduces a new regression estimator, called the Dawoud–Kibria estimator, as an alternative to the ordinary least squares estimator. Theory and simulation results show that this estimator performs better than other regression estimators under some conditions, according to the mean squares error criterion. The real-life datasets are used to illustrate the findings of the paper.
