Abstract:
|
In cutoff sampling, inference -- for example, interval estimates with associated alpha-levels -- is problematic. Design-based samplers do not find an adequate random design on which to base variance estimates. Model-based samplers worry that gaps in information can lead to biases. We nonetheless describe some schemes for inference in cutoff sampling.
