...Although this is similar in spirit to treating sampling variances as fixed at estimates, which is common in small-area estimation (Fay and Herriott 1979; Datta et al. 1991; Ghosh et al. 1996; Rao 1999), it could result in underestimation of variability in the Bayesian procedure....

...This is similar to the customary practice of assuming that the sampling variance is known when using many hierarchical models for small-area estimation (Fay and Herriott 1979; Datta, Fay, and Ghosh 1991; Ghosh, Nangia, and Kim 1996; Rao 1999)....
