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

On weighting the rates in non‐response weights [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2003
AbstractA basic estimation strategy in sample surveys is to weight units inversely proportional to the probability of selection and response. Response weights in this method are usually estimated by the inverse of the sample‐weighted response rate in an adjustment cell, that is, the ratio of the sum of the sampling weights of respondents in a cell to ...
