Ratio imputation method for handling item-nonresponse in Eichhorn model

Model Assisted Statistics and Applications, 2008

This paper proposes an investigation procedure concerning the Eichhorn and Hayre [6]'s quantitative sensitive characteristic randomized response procedure in the presence of missing data.

ITEM NONRESPONSE REASONS AND EFFECTS

2010

The second type is, item nonresponse; sample unit or units have missing data for one or more questions or variables (1, 2, 3).
