Along with the asymptotic distribution, expressions for the asymptotic bias and asymptotic dispersion matrix of the preliminary test maximum likelihood estimator for a general multi-sample parametric model (when the null hypothesis relating to the restraints on the parameters may not hold) are derived and compared with the parallel expressions for the unrestricted and restricted maximum likelihood estimators. This study reveals the robustness property of the preliminary test estimator when the assumed restraints may not hold.
