Unrelated Question Model in Sensitive Multi-Character Surveys

A stratified unrelated question randomized response model

This 'paper presents a new randomized response model that combines Kim and Warde's (2004) stratified Warner's randomized response technique using optimal allocation with the unrelated question randomized response model. The empirical studies performed show that, for the prior information given, the new model is more efficient in terms of variance (in the case of completely truthful reporting) a...

1982: the Covariate Unrelated Question Randomized Response Model

The randomized response technique (Warner, 1965) is a data collection procedure that allows researchers to collect sensitive information while guaranteeing privacy to respondents. For example, if one question from a pair of questions that have the same response options is selected randomly and in private, the question answered by a given individual will not be known to the researcher.
