Model selection in randomized response techniques for binary responses

Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2017
ABSTRACTRandomized response techniques (RRTs) have been proposed in survey sampling literature as a solution to the problem of social desirability bias (SDB) while dealing with sensitive questions. All RRTs reduce the SDB by introducing privacy protection for the respondents, but the variances of the estimates become larger compared with the ones ...

The Validity of the Randomized Response Technique

Public Opinion Quarterly, 1979
IN the considerable literature that has appeared on the randomized response technique (RRT), only one study (Lamb and Stem, 1978) has addressed its validity. However, this study utilized a convenience sample of rather small size, thereby limiting generalizability of results.

Quantal Response Techniques for Random Predictor Variables

Journal of Educational Statistics, 1977
The relationship between quantitative predictors and the probability of occurrence of one or more levels of a qualitative criterion can be analyzed by quantal response techniques. This paper presents two quantal response models. The first model treats the predictors as mathematical variables used as a stratification dimension; the second model uses ...

The Multi-Item Randomized Response Technique

Sociological Methods & Research, 2008
The randomized response technique (RRT) attempts to reduce social desirability bias in self-reports by creating a probabilistic relationship between the response given and the question posed. The multi-item RRT extends the RRT procedure to scales composed of multiple items.

Randomized Response Techniques Using Maximum Likelihood Estimator

Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2015
The randomized response (RR) technique with two decks of cards proposed by Odumade and Singh (2009) can always be made more efficient than the RR techniques proposed by Warner (1965), Mangat and Singh (1990), and Mangat (1994) by adjusting the proportion of cards in the decks. Arnab et al.

Modifying Classical Randomized Response Techniques with Provision for True Response

Calcutta Statistical Association Bulletin, 2011
In this paper we consider four well-known randomized response models; the unrelated question model, the unknown repeated trial model, the forced response model and a model for quantitative responses. Traditionally these models are applied to the respondents chosen by simple random sampling with replacement.

A new Tripartite Randomized Response Technique

Journal of the Nigerian Association of Mathematical Physics, 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 are [8], e.t.c. In this paper, a tripartite randomized response sampling technique was developed to

A note on the randomized response technique

Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 1977
It is pointed out that the usual estimators for the parameters of a randomized response model are not, contrary to popular belief, maximum likelihood estimators.
