SYNOPTIC ABSTRACTThe method of weighted least squares is used to estimate the location and scale parameters of distribution functions of the form F{(x-μ)/σ}. Explicit solutions are obtained for the parameter estimates and their variances. Applications are made to extreme value and normal distributions. A Monte Carlo study indicates the estimators are very good for means and good for variances.
