We assess the case for a decline in the use of survey data in the social sciences during a period in which conventional survey research has faced existential challenges to its ongoing feasibility and growing competition from new forms of 'Big Data'. Presser (1983) and Converse (1987) undertook content analysis of articles published in a set of…

An Improved Two-Stage Randomized Response Model for Estimating the Proportion of Sensitive Attribute
Narjis, Ghulam; Shabbir, Javid – Sociological Methods & Research, 2023
The randomized response technique (RRT) is an effective method designed to obtain the stigmatized information from respondents while assuring the privacy. In this study, we propose a new two-stage RRT model to estimate the prevalence of sensitive attribute ([pi]). A simulation study shows that the empirical mean and variance of proposed estimator…
