Comparison of Small Area Estimation Methods for Estimating Unemployment Rate
Extended Abstract. In recent years, needs for small area estimations have been greatly increased for large surveys particularly household surveys in Sta­ tistical Centre of Iran (SCI), because of the costs and respondent burden. The lack of suitable auxiliary variables between two decennial housing and popula­ tion census is a challenge for SCI in using these methods. In general, the...
متن کاملSome New Developments in Small Area Estimation
Small area estimation has received a lot of attention in recent years due to growing demand for reliable small area statistics. Traditional area-specific estimators may not provide adequate precision because sample sizes in small areas are seldom large enough. This makes it necessary to employ indirect estimators based on linking models. Basic area level and unit level models have been extensiv...
متن کاملEvaluation of methodologies for small area life expectancy estimation.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate methods for calculating life expectancy in small areas, for example, English electoral wards. DESIGN The Monte Carlo method was used to simulate the distribution of life expectancy (and its standard error) estimates for 10 alternative life table models. The models were combinations of Chiang or Silcocks methodology, 5 or 10 year age intervals, and a final age inter...

Objective: This study aimed to resolve replacement scheduling and proper cannula diameter and position issues for intravenous catheters. Methods: In this 2015 experimental cohort study, 232 hos...
متن کاملBayesian Statistics for Small Area Estimation
Abstract. National statistical offices are often required to provide statistical information about characteristics of the population, such as mean income or unemployment rate, at several administrative or small area levels. Having good area level estimates is important because policies will often be based on this type of information. In this paper we describe how Bayesian hierarchical models ca...
