Under this model, parametric and nonparametric bootstrap procedures are proposed for estimating the mean squared error of the EBLUP (Empirical Best Linear Unbiased Predictor). A simulation study compares the bootstrap estimates with an asymptotic analytical approximation and studies the robustness to non-normality. Finally, two applications with real data are described.619319 bytesapplication/pdfengAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 EspañaSpatial correlationSimultaneously autoregressive processParametric bootstrapNonparametric bootstrapBootstrap for estimating the mean squared error of the spatial EBLUPworking paperEstadísticaopen accessws073408
