Abstract
Conditional bias and asymptotic mean sensitivity curve (AMSC) are useful measures to assess the possible effect of an observation on an estimator when sampling from a parametric model. In this paper we obtain expressions for these measures in truncated distributions and study their theoretical properties. Specific results are given for the UMVUE of a parametric function. We note that the AMSC for the UMVUE in truncated distributions verifies some of the most relevant properties we got in a previous paper for the AMSC of UMVUE in the NEF-QVF case, main differences are also established. As for the conditional bias, since it is a finite sample measure, we include some practical examples to illustrate its behaviour when the sample size increases.
