Abstract:
|
Statistical organizations are increasingly exploring the integration of sample survey data with information provided by alternative data sources, e.g. commercial transaction data. One issue is that these data sources may not satisfy survey sample design requirements (e.g. probability sampling). Thus, the quality of the statistical products produced from the integrated data will depend on the mechanisms that link the data sources to the target population of interest. One technique that may be used to produce high quality survey products from integrated data sources is pattern-mixture models (Little and Rubin 1993). Pattern-mixture models have traditionally been used in surveys with nonignorable nonresponse. In those applications, response indicators define subpopulations of missing data patterns and inferences are made conditional on those patterns. Applying these models to data integration problems seems reasonable since subpopulations can be defined by indicators of the unit being captured or represented by one or more of the alternative data sources. As such, we explore the extent to which pattern mixture models can be used to integrate survey data with alternative data sources.
