Abstract
This study deals with random variables from Burr Type XII samples having heterogeneous shape parameters and homogeneous frailty parameters. For samples whose survival copula (whose copula) is Archimedean copula, sufficient conditions based on the heterogeneity of shape parameter vector for the stochastic tail ordering and usual stochastic ordering between sample minimums (sample maximums) are provided. As for independent samples, the convex transform order and tail hazard rate order (tail reversed hazard rate order) between sample minimums (maximums) are discussed. Several numerical examples are also presented to illustrate the theoretical findings.
