Evaluation of respondent-driven sampling [PDF]

, 2012
Respondent-driven sampling produced a generally representative sample of this well-connected nonhidden population. However, current respondent-driven sampling inference methods failed to reduce bias when it occurred.

Quality procedures for survey transitions - experiments, time series and discontinuities

Survey Research Methods, 2008
To maintain uninterrupted time series, surveys conducted by national statistical institutes are often kept unchanged as long as possible. When a change is proposed to improve the methods, it may affect the continuity of these series. It is important to

Entropy Balancing is Doubly Robust

Journal of Causal Inference, 2016
Covariate balance is a conventional key diagnostic for methods estimating causal effects from observational studies. Recently, there is an emerging interest in directly incorporating covariate balance in the estimation.

Propensity Score Weighting for Causal Inference with Clustered Data

Journal of Causal Inference, 2018
Propensity score weighting is a tool for causal inference to adjust for measured confounders in observational studies. In practice, data often present complex structures, such as clustering, which make propensity score modeling and estimation challenging.

Robust Särndal-Type Mean Estimators with Re-Descending Coefficients

Axioms
When extreme values or outliers occur in asymmetric datasets, conventional mean estimation methods suffer from low accuracy and reliability. This study introduces a novel class of robust Särndal-type mean estimators utilizing re-descending M-estimator ...

Carcinomas and Carcinoid Tumors of the Lungs and Bronchi in Children and Adolescents: The EXPeRT Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary lung carcinomas and bronchial carcinoid tumors (BC) are very rare malignancies in childhood. While typical BC and mucoepidermoid carcinomas are mostly low‐grade, localized tumors with a more favorable prognosis than in adults, necessitating avoidance of overtreatment, adenocarcinomas of the lung are often diagnosed at advanced disease ...
