RESUMO

In this thesis we introduce a general extreme-value regression model and derive Cox and Snellâs (1968) general formulae for second-order biases of maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs) of the parameters. We present formulae which can be computed by means of weighted linear regressions. Furthermore, we give the skewness of order n−1/2 of the MLEs of the parameters by using Bowman and Shentonâs (1998) formula. Special cases of this model and a simulation study with results obtained with the use of Cox and Snellâs (1968) formulae are presented. A practical use of this model and of the derived formulae for bias correction is also presented
