초록

The present paper utilizes auxiliary information to neutralize the effect of non-response for estimating the population mean. Improved ratio type estimators for population mean have been proposed and their properties are studied. These estimators are suggested for both single phase sampling and two phase sampling in presence of non-response. Empirical studies are conducted to validate the theoretical results and demonstrate the performance of the proposed estimators. The proposed estimators are shown to perform better than those used by Cochran (Sampling Techniques (3rd ed), John Wiley & Sons, 1977), Khare and Srivastava (In Proceedings-National Academy Science, India, Section A, 65, 195-203, 1995), Rao (Randomization Approach in Incomplete Data in Sample Surveys, Academic Press, 1983; Survey Methodology 12, 217-230, 1986), and Singh and Kumar (Australian & New Zealand Journal of Statistics, 50, 395-408, 2008; Statistical Papers, 51, 559-582, 2010) under the derived optimality condition. Suitable recommendations are put forward for survey practitioners.
