Abstract
In this paper we investigate some aspects like estimation and hypothesis testing in the simple structural regression model with measurement errors. Use is made of orthogonal parametrizations obtained in the literature. Emphasis is placed on some properties of the maximum likelihood estimators and also on the distribution of the likelihood ratio statistics.
