Estimating response propensities in nonprobability surveys using machine learning weighted models [PDF]
Propensity Score Adjustment (PSA) is a widely accepted method to reduce selection bias in nonprobability samples. In this approach, the (unknown) response probability of each individual is estimated in a nonprobability sample, using a reference ...

A Review of Conceptual Approaches and Empirical Evidence on Probability and Nonprobability Sample Survey Research [PDF]
There is an ongoing debate in the survey research literature about whether and when probability and nonprobability sample surveys produce accurate estimates of a larger population. Statistical theory provides a justification for confidence in probability

Inference from Non-Probability Surveys with Statistical Matching and Propensity Score Adjustment Using Modern Prediction Techniques [PDF]
Online surveys are increasingly common in social and health studies, as they provide fast and inexpensive results in comparison to traditional ones. However, these surveys often work with biased samples, as the data collection is often non-probabilistic ...

Sample Surveys: Nonprobability Sampling
Nonprobability sampling describes any method for collecting survey data which does not utilize a full probability sampling design. Nonprobability samples are usually cheaper and easier to collect than probability samples.

Topics in estimation for messy surveys: imperfect matching and nonprobability sampling [PDF]
2022 Summer.Includes bibliographical references.Two problems in estimation for "messy" surveys are addressed, both requiring the combination of survey data with other data sources. The first estimation problem involves the combination of survey data with
