Title: Response Surface Matching for Survey Nonresponse

Abstract:

Prognostic score-based methods have been proposed as a complementary approach to propensity score-based methods for achieving covariate balance in observational studies. Likewise, standard adjustments for survey nonresponse, such as response propensity matching, can be supplemented by incorporating information from respondent outcomes. In this talk I will discuss how methods for matching on response profiles can be extended and applied to adjustments for survey nonresponse. I will illustrate these ideas through simulation studies and applications to large scale surveys.
