For Efronβs tail correction
the variance is 0, while for Klein-Moeschbergerβs it is the same as the variance of ππ (π¦π ) when π¦ < πΎ, 0 otherwise

Confidence intervals

The usual symmetric normal confidence intervals for ππ (π‘) and π»
subtracting to the estimator the standard deviation times a coefficient from the standard normal distribution
