Abstract

It should be noted that the number of observation in the up-and-down procedure is a random variable. Therefore, We need to justify the employment of the conditional likelihood even in the above situation and show the algorithm of simulation. Also, the strategy of halving or widening the level space in modified up-and-down method is suggested.
