Discrete choice non-response [PDF]

open access: yesWorking Paper Series, 2003
Missing values are endemic in the data sets available to econometricians. This paper suggests a semiparametrically efficient likelihood-based approach to deal with general non-ignorable missing data problems for discrete choice models. Our concern is when the dependent variable and/or covariates are unobserved for some sampling units.

Estimation of finite population mean using dual auxiliary variable for non-response using simple random sampling

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics, 2022
This paper addresses the issue of estimating the population mean for non-response using simple random sampling. A new family of estimators is proposed for estimating the population mean with auxiliary information on the sample mean and the rank of the ...

A modified regression-cum-ratio estimator for finite population mean in presence of nonresponse using ranked set sampling

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics, 2022
Several situations arise where decision-making is required for some characteristics of an asymmetrical population for example estimation of the weekly number of server breakdowns at a company.

Survey Non-Response and Unemployment Duration [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2004
Social surveys are often used to estimate unemployment duration distributions. Survey non-response may then cause a bias. We study this by using a data set that combines survey information of individual workers with administrative records of the same workers.

Are risk estimates biased in follow-up studies of psychosocial factors with low base-line participation?

open access: yesBMC Public Health, 2011
Background Low participation in population-based follow-up studies addressing psychosocial risk factors may cause biased estimation of health risk but the issue has seldom been examined.

Understanding the patterns of mode switching in longitudinal studies

open access: yesSurvey Research Methods, 2021
Using mixed-mode data collection is becoming a mainstream way of conducting longitudinal surveys. However, interviewing the same units in a mixed-mode longitudinal design can lead to respondents switching between modes over time.

Enhancing Social Surveys Through the Postal Collection of Shed Milk Teeth: an Example of a Large-Scale Cost-Effective Collection on a Longitudinal Study

open access: yesSurvey Research Methods, 2016
Social scientists and health researchers often need valid and reliable health measures from survey respondents to address key research questions, whether on environmental risks, weight and nutrition, physical activity or health / risky behaviours.

Magnetic resonance imaging tumor regression shrinkage patterns after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced breast cancer: correlation with tumor biological subtypes and pathological response after therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The objective of this study is to analyze magnetic resonance imaging shrinkage pattern of tumor regression after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and to evaluate its relationship with biological subtypes and pathological response.

A comparison of small monetary incentives to convert survey non-respondents: a randomized control trial

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2011
Background Maximizing response rates is critically important in order to provide the most generalizable and unbiased research results. High response rates reduce the chance of respondents being systematically different from non-respondents, and thus ...

Exponential Type Estimators Using Sub-Sampling Method with Applications in Agriculture

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022
In this article, the family of exponential type estimators with the auxiliary variable is proposed in the case of non-response scheme for the purpose of obtaining the unknown population mean of the study variable. The nonresponse scheme is examined under
