主 题:Estimation of means of two sensitive characteristics Randomized response technique Re-scrambling Variance and relative efficiency
摘 要:Recently,Ahmed et al.(Commun Stat Theory Methods 47(2):324-343,2018)have introduced the idea of simultaneously estimating means of two sensitive variables by collecting one scrambled response and another *** this paper,we extend their idea to the simultaneous estimation of two means by making use of the forced quantitative randomized response model of Gjestvang and Singh(Metrika 66(2):243-257,2007)but then re-scrambling the scrambled *** idea of re-scrambling already scrambled responses seems completely new in the field of randomized response *** performance of the proposed forced quantitative randomized response model has been investigated analytically as well as empirically.
