Horvitz-Thompson estimation with randomized response and nonresponse
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the nonstandard situation where the randomized response theory is applied in a nonresponse set-up. The customary Horvitz-Thompson estimator for the population total of a sensitive variable is adjusted to take into account missing data, true response and randomized response, and the expression of its variance and the corresponding estimator provided. Finally, a numerical study is carried out to investigate how the estimation process can be affected by scrambled responses and how possible improvements in respondent cooperation can compensate for certain levels of nonresponse.

Horvitz-Thompson estimator of population mean under inverse sampling designs
Inverse sampling design is generally considered to be appropriate technique when the population is divided into two subpopulations, one of which contains only few units. In this paper, we derive the Horvitz-Thompson estimator for the population mean under inverse sampling designs, where subpopulation sizes are known. We then introduce an alternative unbiased estimator, corresponding to post-st...

متن کاملEstimating Variance of the Sample Mean in Two-phase Sampling with Unit Non-response Effect
In sample surveys, we always deal with two types of errors: Sampling error and non-sampling error. One of the most common non-sampling errors is nonresponse. This error happens when some sample units are not observed or viewed but they do not answer some of the questions. The complete prevention of this error is not possible, but it can be significantly reduced. The non-response causes bias and ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Nonresponse Primary Sampling Units on Estimating the Variance of Changes by Jackknife Method (Case Study: Labor Force Survey Data for 2009 and 2010)
Abstract. According to the importance of presenting change estimation of labor force survey indicators along with their variance, in this paper, the use of Jackknife method in estimating variance of changes has been investigated. Then, the effect of nonresponse primary sampling units on estimating the variance of changes has been studied by use of Jackknife method via intensive simulation stud...
متن کاملColorectal cancer screening adherence in a general population.
BACKGROUND This article describes the self-reported colorectal cancer (CRC) screening adherence rates of adults, aged 50 years and older, living in five nonurban Minnesota counties. METHODS During the year 2000, 1693 eligible respondents, aged 50 years and older, from a randomly selected sample completed a survey assessing CRC screening adherence (approximately 86.3% response). The survey all...
