We introduce small area estimators of means and separable parameters. The estimators are assisted by nested error regression models and they are model-assisted counterparts of the model-based empirical best linear unbiased predictors and empirical best predictors. We study the sampling-design consistency and the asymptotic normality of the introduced estimators. Results from two simulation studies show that the new estimators present a good balance between sampling bias and mean squared error.
