Design Effects of Multilevel Estimates From National Probability Samples
This research empirically evaluates data sets from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) for design effects of ignoring the sampling design in weighted two-level analyses. Currently, researchers may ignore the sampling design beyond the levels that they model which might result in incorrect inferences regarding hypotheses due to biased standard error estimates; the degree of bias ...
متن کاملBayesian Combination of State Polls and Election Forecasts
A wide range of potentially useful data are available for election forecasting: the results of previous elections, a multitude of preelection polls, and predictors such as measures of national and statewide economic performance. How accurate are different forecasts? We estimate predictive uncertainty via analysis of data collected from past elections (actual outcomes, preelection polls, and mod...
متن کاملPredicting and Interpolating State-level Polls using Twitter Textual Data
Spatially or temporally dense polling remains both difficult and expensive using existing survey methods. In response, there have been increasing efforts to approximate various survey measures using social media, but most of these approaches remain methodologically flawed. To remedy these flaws, this paper combines 1200 state-level polls during the 2012 presidential campaign with over 100 milli...
متن کاملComparison of Estimates Using Record Statistics from Lomax Model: Bayesian and Non Bayesian Approaches
This paper address the problem of Bayesian estimation of the parameters, reliability and hazard function in the context of record statistics values from the two-parameter Lomax distribution. The ML and the Bayes estimates based on records are derived for the two unknown parameters and the survival time parameters, reliability and hazard functions. The Bayes estimates are obtained based on conju...
متن کاملWireless substitution: state-level estimates from the National Health Interview Survey, 2010-2011.
OBJECTIVES This report updates subnational estimates of the percentage of adults and children living in households without a landline telephone but with at least one wireless telephone (i.e., wireless-only households). State-level estimates for 2011 are presented, as well as estimates for selected U.S. counties and groups of counties, for other household telephone service use categories (e.g., ...
