متن کاملEffect of Measurement Errors on a Class of Estimators of Population Mean Using Auxiliary Information in Sample Surveys
We consider the problem of estimation the population mean of the study variate Y in presence of measurement errors when information on an auxiliary character X is known. A class of estimators for population means using information on an auxiliary variate X is defined. Expressions for its asymptotic bias and mean square error are obtained. Optimum conditions are obtained for which the mean...
متن کاملSurvey of Income and Program Participation
An important type of nonsampling error that has been identified in the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) is known as the seam effect. The SIPP is a panel survey with an interval of four months between waves, but with information on many income sources being collected on a monthly basis. A common finding has been that more month-to-month changes in recipiency of most income types...
