In the present paper, we study the information generating (IG) function and relative information generating (RIG) function measures associated with maximum and minimum ranked set sampling (RSS) schemes with unequal sizes. We also examine the IG measures for simple random sampling (SRS) and provide some comparison results between SRS and RSS procedures in terms of dispersive stochastic ordering. Finally, we discuss the RIG divergence measure between SRS and RSS frameworks.
