An Efficient Horvitz–Thompson-Type Estimator for Two Sensitive Means Using a Three-Stage Quantitative Randomized Response Under Complex Sampling

Axioms
In many empirical studies, researchers face challenges when addressing sensitive topics as respondents may be reluctant to provide truthful answers due to privacy concerns.

Charting the Scientific Landscape of Indirect Estimation Models in Doping Prevalence Research: A Bibliometric Analysis with Narrative Appraisal

Sports
Interpreting doping prevalence estimates generated through indirect estimation models (IEMs) remains challenging for sport policy and governance due to the wide variation in reported rates and methodological complexity.

A new Tripartite Randomized Response Technique

, 2013
In any research involving sensitive questions, respondents tend to refuse to answer such questions or give evasive response. Many randomized response sampling techniques were developed but could only handle two answer options; ‘Yes’ and ‘No’, among which

Regression Models in Complex Survey Sampling for Sensitive Quantitative Variables

Mathematics, 2021
Randomized response (RR) techniques are widely used in research involving sensitive variables, such as drugs, violence or crime, especially when a population mean or prevalence must be estimated.

PPDCA: Privacy-Preserving Crowdsourcing Data Collection and Analysis With Randomized Response

IEEE Access, 2018
Randomized response mechanisms for guaranteeing crowdsourcing data privacy have attracted scholarly attention; aggregators can ensure privacy by collecting only randomized data, and individuals can have plausible deniability regarding their responses ...

A Modified Forced Randomized Response Model

Journal of Nigerian Society of Physical Sciences, 2020
In this paper, we proposed a new Randomized Response Model (RRM) that estimate proportion of people in a population (P) belonging to a sensitive group (S) under study.

Optionally Randomized Response Techniques

, 1985
It is shown that for sensitive and confidential characters the usual loss of efficiency due to randomized rather than direct response may be partially recouped if the interviewees are left free to opt for either mode of response.

Pediatric Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease Is Often Severe But Responsive to Siltuximab

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a potentially fatal immunologic disorder marked by widespread lymphadenopathy and inflammation. Siltuximab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, is the only FDA‐approved treatment for adult patients with iMCD.

Improved Randomized Response in Optional Scrambling Models

Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2019
In the present study, we discuss the issue of increasing the respondents cooperation in sensitive surveys. When the question is highly sensitive then the cooperation from the respondents is decreased.
