Optimal Allocation for Stratified Telephone Survey Designs
1. THE CURRENT STATUS OF TELEPHONE SURVEY DESIGNS The two stage random digit dialing design for sampling telephone households, first proposed by Mitofsky (1970) and more fully developed by Waksberg (1978), has been widely employed in telephone surveys. The Mitofsky-Waksberg technique capitalizes on the fact that working residential numbers (hereafter referred to as WRNs) tend to be highly clust...
متن کاملStratified Median Ranked Set Sampling: Optimum and Proportional Allocations
In this paper, for the Stratified Median Ranked Set Sampling (SMRSS), proposed by Ibrahim et al. (2010), we examine the proportional and optimum sample allocations that are two well-known methods for sample allocation in stratified sampling. We show that the variances of the mean estimators of a symmetric population in SMRSS using optimum and proportional allocations to strata are smaller than ...
متن کاملAsymptotic properties of the sample mean in adaptive sequential sampling with multiple selection criteria
We extend the method of adaptive two-stage sequential sampling toinclude designs where there is more than one criteria is used indeciding on the allocation of additional sampling effort. Thesecriteria, or conditions, can be a measure of the targetpopulation, or a measure of some related population. We developMurthy estimator for the design that is unbiased estimators fort...
متن کاملOptimal solutions in controlled selection problems with two-way stratification
When considering sample stratification by several variables, we often face the case where the expected number of sample units to be selected in each stratum is very small and the total number of units to be selected is smaller than the total number of strata. These stratified sample designs are specifically represented by the tabular arrays with real numbers, called controlled selection problem...
متن کاملStratified Telephone Survey Designs
Two stage random digit dialing procedures as developed by Mitofsky and elaborated by Waksberg are widely used in telephone sampling of the U.S. household population. Current alternative approaches have, relative to this procedure, coverage and cost deficiencies. These deficiencies are addressed through telephone sample designs which use listed number information to improve the cost-efficiency o...
