Fisher directly attacked the method of moments in much of his work, and attempted to show the superiority of his likelihood techniques. While Fisher’s

Fiducial Inference,ur uncertainty about θ after x is observed when there was no . information about θ. The term “fiducial distribution” first appeared in Fisher’s 1930 paper [CP 84], where the distribution of the correlation coefficient was considered. Unfortunately, Fisher never gave an acceptable general definition
