Summary/Abstract: In this article we have suggested some improved estimators of a scale parameter of log-logistic distribution (LLD) under a situation where the units in a sample can be ordered by judgement method without any error. We have also suggested some linear shrinkage estimator of a scale parameter of LLD. Efficiency comparisons are also made in this work.
