Download or read book Sample Surveys Design Methods and Applications written by and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2009-08-31 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new handbook contains the most comprehensive account of sample surveys theory and practice to date. It is a second volume on sample surveys, with the goal of updating and extending the sampling volume published as volume 6 of the Handbook of Statistics in 1988. The present handbook is divided into two volumes (29A and 29B), with a total of 41 chapters, covering current developments in almost every aspect of sample surveys, with references to important contributions and available software. It can serve as a self contained guide to researchers and practitioners, with appropriate balance between theory and real life applications. Each of the two volumes is divided into three parts, with each part preceded by an introduction, summarizing the main developments in the areas covered in that part. Volume 29A deals with methods of sample selection and data processing, with the later including editing and imputation, handling of outliers and measurement errors, and methods of disclosure control. The volume contains also a large variety of applications in specialized areas such as household and business surveys, marketing research, opinion polls and censuses. Volume 29B is concerned with inference, distinguishing between design-based and model-based methods and focusing on specific problems such as small area estimation, analysis of longitudinal data, categorical data analysis and inference on distribution functions. The volume contains also chapters dealing with case-control studies, asymptotic properties of estimators and decision theoretic aspects.

Download or read book Theory of Sample Surveys written by M. Thompson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1997-08-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the chronological development of sample surveys, this book provides an analysis of the mathematical and statistical theory of the subject. The text begins with the mathematics of randomized sampling designs as well as a general treatment of estimation of population totals through the Horvits-Thompson estimator and its variants. The book then examines approximations and limit theorems for the distribution of the estimators and design-based estimation of other population quantities. It concludes with chapters concerning inference from surveys. Theory of Sample Surveys will assist in a range of applications, including: auditing quality monitoring market research wildlife surveys mining exploration agriculture and business surveys population health studies This book acts as an exceptional resource for survey methodologists in government organizations as well as lecturers and graduate students in statistics and biostatistics.
Download or read book Elements of Survey Sampling written by R. Singh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern statistics consists of methods which help in drawing inferences about the population under consideration. These populations may actually exist, or could be generated by repeated· experimentation. The medium of drawing inferences about the population is the sample, which is a subset of measurements selected from the population. Each measurement in the sample is used for making inferences about the population. The populations and also the methods of sample selection differ from one field of science to the other. Social scientists use surveys tocollectthe sample information, whereas the physical scientists employ the method of experimentation for obtaining this information. This is because in social sciences the factors that cause variation in the measurements on the study variable for the population units can not be controlled, whereas in physical sciences these factors can be controlled, at least to some extent, through proper experimental design. Several excellent books on sampling theory are available in the market. These books discuss the theory of sample surveys in great depth and detail, and are suited to the postgraduate students majoring in statistics. Research workers in the field of sampling methodology can also make use of these books. However, not many suitable books are available, which can be used by the students and researchers in the fields of economics, social sciences, extension education, agriculture, medical sciences, business management, etc. These students and workers usually conduct sample surveys during their research projects.

Download or read book Sampling of Populations written by Paul S. Levy and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trusted classic on the key methods in population sampling—now in a modernized and expanded new edition Sampling of Populations, Fourth Edition continues to serve as an all-inclusive resource on the basic and most current practices in population sampling. Maintaining the clear and accessible style of the previous edition, this book outlines the essential statistical methodsfor survey design and analysis, while also exploring techniques that have developed over the past decade. The Fourth Edition successfully guides the reader through the basic concepts and procedures that accompany real-world sample surveys, such as sampling designs, problems of missing data, statistical analysis of multistage sampling data, and nonresponse and poststratification adjustment procedures. Rather than employ a heavily mathematical approach, the authors present illustrative examples that demonstrate the rationale behind common steps in the sampling process, from creating effective surveys to analyzing collected data. Along with established methods, modern topics are treated through the book's new features, which include: A new chapter on telephone sampling, with coverage of declining response rates, the creation of "do not call" lists, and the growing use of cellular phones A new chapter on sample weighting that focuses on adjustments to weight for nonresponse, frame deficiencies, and the effects of estimator instability An updated discussion of sample survey data analysis that includes analytic procedures for estimation and hypothesis testing A new section on Chromy's widely used method of taking probability proportional to size samples with minimum replacement of primary sampling units An expanded index with references on the latest research in the field All of the book's examples and exercises can be easily worked out using various software packages including SAS, STATA, and SUDAAN, and an extensive FTP site contains additional data sets. With its comprehensive presentation and wealth of relevant examples, Sampling of Populations, Fourth Edition is an ideal book for courses on survey sampling at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also a valuable reference for practicing statisticians who would like to refresh their knowledge of sampling techniques.

Download or read book Theory of Sample Surveys written by M. E. Thompson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book began about ten years ago as an attempt to fill out the notes for a graduate course in sampling theory. It has become a monograph, intended to supplement rather than replace books already available. For example, there are many good treatments at various levels on the practical problems of survey design, and on the 'how to' of analysis. I have dealt with these issues to some extent, but have focused more on aspects of sampling theory which are not so commonly treated else where. Parts of the book can still be used in teaching, supplemented sufficiently with examples and other material. The book deals with a subject of great vitality. The theory of survey methods is developing fast, with more and more connections to other parts of statistics, as the needs of practitioners change, and as more uses of survey data become possible. As a consequence of increases in computing power and capability, data are easier to manipulate, and computer-intensive methods for analysis can be investigated with reas onable assurance that the better ones will soon be practical.
