Title: On Estimating at Least Seven Measures Using Randomized Response Sampling: Cramer-Rao Lower Bounds of Variances

Keywords: Randomized Response Techniques ; Estimation of two sensitive characteristics ; Minimum variance ; Maximum likelihood estimates ; Cramer-Rao lower bounds
Abstract:

In this paper, we show that the three estimators proposed by Lee, Sedory and Singh (2013) attain the lower bounds of variance at equal protection of respondents while using their proposed randomized response techniques. A comparison of range restricted estimate with an unrestricted estimate is also given. The findings are supported with a real data example.
