| Abstract: | Some new exact bounds for the expected values of order statistics, under the assumption that the parent population is non-negative, are obtained in terms of the population mean. Similar bounds for the differences of any two order statistics are also given. It is shown that the existing bounds for the general case can be improved considerably under the above assumption. |
