Using information from demographic analysis in post-enumeration survey estimation.

چکیده
"Population estimates from the 1990 Post-Enumeration Survey (PES), used to measure decennial census undercount, were obtained from dual system estimates (DSE's) that assumed independence within strata defined by age-race-sex-geography and other variables. We make this independence assumption for females, but develop methods to avoid the independence assumption for males within strata by using national level sex ratios from demographic analysis (DA).... We consider several...alternative DSE's, and use DA results for 1990 to apply them to data from the 1990 U.S. census and PES."

A Recommendation for Net Undercount Estimation in Iran Population and Dwelling Censuses
Census counts are subject to different types of nonsampling errors. One of these main errors is coverage error. Undercount and overcount are two types of coverage error. Undercount usually occurs more than the other, thus net undercount estimation is important. There are various methods for estimating the coverage error in censuses. One of these methods is dual system (DS) that usually uses dat...

The Census Bureau used three methods to determine the nation’s population in 2000: the traditional headcount, the post-enumeration survey (Accuracy and Coverage Evaluation or A.C.E.), and Demographic Analysis (DA). The three estimates produced significantly different and confounding results. The divergence among the three — especially, the discrepancy between DA and the A.C.E. — is considered t...

A sample covering 204,394 blocks from the 1990 U.S. Census permits measurement of residual heterogeneity from local area to local area after controlling by stratification for demographic characteristics such as race, ethnicity, age, sex as well as geographic characteristics such as region and place-type. The local areas have populations on the order of 10,000 people. The variables studied are f...
