For the first time, this paper offers the Bayesian and E-Bayesian estimation methods using the spacing function (SF) instead of the classical likelihood function. The inverse Lindley distribution, including its parameter and reliability measures, is discussed in this study through the mentioned methods, along with some other classical approaches. Six-point and six-interval estimations based on an adaptive Type-I progressively censored sample are considered. The likelihood and product of spacing methods are used in classical inferential setups. The approximate confidence intervals are discussed using both classical approaches. For various parameters, the Bayesian methodology is studied by taking both likelihood and SFs as observed data sources to derive the posterior distributions. Moreover, the E-Bayesian estimation method is considered by using the same data sources in the usual Bayesian approach. The Bayes and E-Bayes credible intervals using both likelihood and SFs are also taken into consideration. Several Monte Carlo experiments are carried out to assess the performance of the acquired estimators, depending on different accuracy criteria and experimental scenarios. Finally, two data sets from the engineering and physics sectors are analyzed to demonstrate the superiority and practicality of the suggested approaches.
