  • 1. Geographic variation in female breast cancer incidence and mortality in Canada - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600500001
    Description: Previous research has found variability in cancer incidence and cancer-related outcomes according to place of residence. This study examined geographic variability in the incidence and mortality of breast cancer among females in Canada, using data from the 2021 Canadian Cancer Registry (breast cancer incidence) and the Canadian Vital Statistics – Death database (breast cancer mortality). Age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) and age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs) per 100,000 females per year and their rate ratios were calculated, as well as age group-specific and age-standardized stage-specific incidence rates, and examined across provinces and territories, community sizes, and peer groups (i.e., clusters of health regions with similar socioeconomic and demographic characteristics).

  • 2. Enhancing the OncoSim-Breast model using Canadian breast density information - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600500002
    Description: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in Canada. Breast density substantially influences breast cancer risk and mammography performance. However, OncoSim-Breast, a Canadian microsimulation model representing breast cancer control, including cancer onset, screening, and survival, has not previously explicitly accounted for breast density. This study describes the incorporation of density-specific parameters—prevalence, relative risk of breast cancer, and digital mammography performance (sensitivity and specificity)—using data from five Canadian provinces, into the OncoSim-Breast model. Calibration experiments and internal validations were conducted to ensure the updated OncoSim-Breast model aligned with observed data from the Canadian Cancer Registry.

  • 211. Generalized regression estimation under misspecified sample design - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500200008
    Description: Classical design-based survey estimation relies on a properly specified sampling design for valid inference. We consider the properties of regression estimation under a misspecified sample design, in which the nominal and true inclusion probabilities do not necessarily match. This general misspecified sample design setting encompasses many challenges in the modern survey environment. Under this setting, an asymptotic analysis of the regression estimator, an expression of the bias, and an expression of the variance are presented. Further, a consistent variance estimator is derived and an expression which estimates the bias in-part or in-whole is discussed. This later expression may be used as an indicator of the presence of bias due to misspecification by a practitioner. A simulation study is conducted to support the presented theory.

  • 212. Improved small area inference from data integration using global-local priors - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500200009
    Description: We present and apply methodology to improve inference for small area parameters by using data from several sources. This work extends Cahoy and Sedransk (2023) who showed how to integrate summary statistics from several sources. Our methodology uses hierarchical global-local prior distributions to make inferences for the proportion of individuals in Florida’s counties who do not have health insurance. Results from an extensive simulation study show that this methodology will provide improved inference by using several data sources. Among the five model variants evaluated the ones using horseshoe priors for all variances have better performance than the ones using lasso priors for the local variances.

  • 213. Performance of hierarchical Bayes small area estimators using noninformative and informative priors with an application to the Canadian Labor Force Survey - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500200010
    Description: In this paper, we study the performance of hierarchical Bayes (HB) small area estimators using noninformative and informative priors. We apply the Bayesian models of You and Chapman (2006) and You (2021) to the Canadian Labor Force Survey (LFS) data and evaluate the impact of the priors on the HB estimators. A Bayesian model comparison and simulation study are also conducted. Our results indicate that a correct informative prior can lead to very good results, and noninformative priors can also perform very well. Incorrect informative priors can lead to poor results in terms of large bias and large coefficient of variation (CV). Noninformative priors are recommended in practice for HB small area estimation unless correctly specified informative priors are available. Informative priors are particularly useful when the number of small areas is relatively small.

  • 214. Approximate hierarchical Bayes small area estimation using Natural Exponential Family with Quadratic Variance Function and poststratification - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500200011
    Description: We propose an approximate hierarchical Bayes approach that uses the Natural Exponential Family with Quadratic Variance Function (NEF-QVF) in combining information from multiple sources to improve traditional survey estimates of finite population means for small areas. Unlike other Bayesian approaches in finite population sampling, we do not assume a model for all units of the finite population and do not require linking sampled units to the finite population frame. We assume a model only for the finite population units in which the outcome variable is observed; because, for these units, the assumed model can be checked using existing statistical tools. We do not posit an elaborate model on the true means for unobserved units. Instead, we assume that population means of cells with the same combination of factor levels are identical across small areas, and that the population mean for a cell is identical to the mean of the observed units in that cell. We apply our proposed methodology to a real-life survey, linking information from multiple disparate data sources. We also provide practical ways of model selection that can be applied to a wider class of models under similar setting but for a diverse range of scientific problems.

  • 215. Modified observed best prediction strategies for small area estimation with unit-level data - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500200012
    Description: The observed best prediction (OBP) under a nested-error regression (NER) model was previously proposed using a design-based mean squared prediction error (MSPE) as a tool to derive the best predictive estimator (BPE). A recent study showed the OBP under the NER model may suffer from numerical instability when computing the BPE. We propose several modifications of the OBP under the NER model, including ones using a model-based MSPE to derive the BPE, to improve the numerical stability and predictive performance. We compare the performance of the modified OBP strategies with the existing methods in a simulation study. A real-data example is discussed.

  • 216. Sampling for business surveys at Statistics Canada - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500200013
    Description: This article examines the methodological complexities associated with the design of business surveys, with particular emphasis on sampling strategies implemented by National Statistical Offices (NSOs). It addresses the inherent challenges posed by the dynamic nature of the business population, which necessitates continual updates to the sampling frame to ensure representativeness and relevance. Critical design considerations include the determination of optimal sample sizes, stratification across key dimensions such as industry, geographic region, and enterprise size, as well as the treatment of business births and the exclusion of inactive (or “dead”) units. The article applies Bankier’s (1988) power allocation method to a two-way stratification scheme defined by industry and geography, evaluating its performance by comparing the resulting coefficients of variation with those obtained via a raking algorithm applied to the marginal coefficients. Furthermore, the approach is extended to a multivariate context to accommodate multiple estimation domains. The discussion also encompasses practical issues related to sample rotation and coordination, which are critical for maintaining data quality and minimizing respondent burden over time.

  • 219. The role of firm size in the Canada–U.S. labour productivity gap since 2000 - Open in new window/tab
    Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202501200002
    Description: Canada’s business sector has a lower level of labour productivity compared with that of the United States. Moreover, there has been a substantial divergence in labour productivity in the business sectors of Canada and the United States since 2000. As a result, Canada’s labour productivity gap with the United States widened in that period. This paper examines the role of firm size in the widening labour productivity gap between the two countries since 2000.
