Abstract:
|
With the increasing demographic and technological diversity of the U.S. population, it is becoming more difficult for a single sample selected from a single sampling frame to adequately represent the population. Multiple-frame surveys are increasingly used in situations where several sampling frames may provide better coverage or cost-efficiency for estimating population quantities of interest. Examples include combining a list frame of farms with an area frame or using two frames to sample landline telephone households and cellular telephone households. We review the history of multiple frame surveys including J.N.K. Rao's many contributions to the subject. We then discuss some recent work on internally consistent and efficient estimators for three or more frames, effects of frame misclassification, and resampling methods for variance estimation in multiple frame surveys.
