Arnab, Raghunath; Singh, Sarjinder Estimation of mean of sensitive characteristics for successive sampling. (English) Zbl 1275.62031 Commun. Stat., Theory Methods 42, No. 14, 2499-2524 (2013). Summary: New estimators for estimating the population mean of a sensitive variable using the concept of successive sampling over two occasions are proposed. The unbiasedness and the variance properties of the proposed estimators are investigated analytically as well as numerically.
