Description:

While the largest surveys are conducted by government agencies, many large surveys are conducted by private organizations including marketing firms and research institutions. Furthermore, massive numbers of statistics are produced from such surveys. In such a setting, the typical survey statistician prefers techniques with broad applicability that require a minimum of assumptions. Procedures are sought that are nearly design unbiased, but no claim of optimality is made for a particular statistic. These standard survey techniques are introduced in Chapter One. Basic sampling concepts are introduced in a way to facilitate the application of model-based procedures to survey samples. Likewise,…
