Small Area Estimation under Informative Probability Sampling of Areas and Within the Selected Areas
In this article we show how to predict small area means and obtain valid MSE estimators and confidence intervals when the areas represented in the sample are sampled with unequal probabilities that are possibly related to the true (unknown) area means, and the sampling of units within the selected areas is with probabilities that are possibly related to the outcome values. Ignoring the effects ...
متن کاملImputation methods for quantile estimation under missing at random
Imputation is frequently used to handle missing data for which multiple imputation is a popular technique. We propose a fractional hot deck imputation which produces a valid variance estimator for quantiles. In the proposed method, the imputed values are chosen from the set of respondents and are assigned with proper fractional weights that use a density function for the working model. In addit...
متن کاملSemiparametric location estimation under non-random sampling.
We study a class of semiparametric skewed distributions arising when the sample selection process produces non-randomly sampled observations. Based on semiparametric theory and taking into account the symmetric nature of the population distribution, we propose both consistent estimators, i.e. robust to model mis-specification, and efficient estimators, i.e. reaching the minimum possible estimat...
متن کاملInterval Estimation for Small Area Proportions with Small True Proportions from Stratified Random Sampling Survey Data∗†
Consider interval estimation of m small area proportions Pi (i = 1, · · · ,m), where we assume a stratified random sampling design with equal number of observations n in each stratum, and where the domains of interest are the strata. A 100(1 − α)% confidence interval for Pi that has appeared repeatedly in the literature and is used in application is given by P̂ i ± zα/2 √ msei, where P̂ i and mse...
متن کاملA New Approach to Estimation of Response Probabilities when Missing Data are Not missing at Random
Often the probability of responding depends directly on the outcome value. This case can be treated by postulating a parametric model for the distribution of the outcomes before nonresponse and a model for the response mechanism. The two models define a parametric model for the joint distribution of the outcomes and response indicators, and therefore the parameters of these models can be estima...
