Unconditional Variance Estimation Under Complex Surveys
Summary The unconditional framework treats the samples and the variables of interest as random variables. This is particularly suitable with analytic inference, when modelling survey data. We show that variance estimation does not involve finite population corrections and joint‐inclusion probabilities, even with large sampling fractions and under ...

Specifically, we require (i) the dynamic common component to be purely non‐deterministic and (ii) the exclusion of ...
