  • 10,761. Some estimators for domain totals Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197500100004
    Description: A major concern in large scale surveys is the problem of sub-population estimation (domain estimation). This paper presents a study of four estimators for estimating domain totals. The domain considered in the study is an area type of domain, that is, a domain consisting of a combination of a certain number of area units belonging to different strata. This paper uses some actual data and some fictitious data to compare variances and mean square errors of the four estimators.

  • 10,762. A comparison of some binomial factors for the Labour Force Survey Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197500100005
    Description: Binomial factors (sometimes called design effects) can be used to assess the quality and performance, with respect to sampling variability of survey estimates, of a sample design and estimation procedure relative to assumed simple random sample designs. In this paper four types of binomial factors have been defined and calculated for the monthly Canadian Labour Force Survey. Some results from the analysis of these factors are presented in this paper.

  • 10,763. Non-interview patterns in the Canadian Labour Force Survey Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197500100006
    Description: This paper summarizes the results of a project conducted to study non-interviews in the Canadian Labour Force Survey. Temporarily absent (32.7%), no-one-home (31.4%), and refusal (25.5%) are the major components of non-response. The impact of these components to the total non-response in Surveys from July 1972 to June 1973 is discussed in detail.

    A detailed analysis of refusal households showed that existing field follow-up procedures were not quite successful in reducing the refusal component. As expected, non-response was found to be related to the length of tenure of households in the sample. Non-response among households enumerated for the first time was generally higher than those households already in the sample.

  • 10,764. Components of variance model in multi-stage stratified samples Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197500100007
    Description: There are several multi-stage sample designs in various countries, such as the Current Population Survey in U.S.A., Labour Survey in Sweden, and the General Household Survey in United Kingdom. From each survey, estimated totals of Employed, Unemployed, and other characteristics may be obtained.

    The Canadian Labour Force Survey is a monthly household survey in which the dwelling is the ultimate unit of sampling requiring two to four stages of selection. Each province is split up into strata and sampling units at various stages so that the sampling variance contains up to four components of variance whose actual formulae and estimation formulae are derived, utilizing those formerly derived by Yates and Grundy [12]. Ratio estimation is employed and the formulas are modified accordingly. To analyze the components of variance, it is necessary to express them in terms of components of sampling ratios and the sizes of sampling units at the various stages at provincial and national levels and approximate variance functions are thus derived.

  • 10,765. A strategy for up-dating continuous surveys Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197500100008
    Description: The need for regular up-dating of the selection probabilities in continuous surveys is emphasized in this paper. A simple strategy (selection method for the initial sample with the revision procedure) is presented and its application to the Canadian Labour Force Survey is discussed.

  • 10,766. Reinterview programs and response errors Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197500100009
    Description: This paper discusses several reinterview techniques and their use in relation to Response Variance, Response Bias, Interviewer Training, and the monitoring of various elements of the interview process. Using the Canadian Labour Force Survey as a case study the article describes how reinterview techniques were developed as the survey evolved and briefly describes the strategy being followed in the present reinterview program.

  • 105. Canadian Research and Development Classification (CRDC)
    Classification: 89-26-0004
    Description: This classification system was developed conjointly by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), and Statistics Canada which is the custodian. This shared standard classification, inspired by the Frascati Model 2015 of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), will be used by the federal granting agencies and Statistics Canada to collect, and disseminate data related to research and development in Canada. The Canadian Research and Development Classification (CRDC) first official version was the 2020 Version 1.0, now being replaced by CRDC Version 2.0. The CRDC is revised within 2 years for minor changes, and every five years for major revisions. CRDC 2020 Version 2.0 is composed of 3 main pieces: the type of activity or TOA (with 3 categories), the field of research or FOR (with 1,671 fields at the lowest level) and socioeconomic objective or SEO (with 85 main groups at the lowest level).

  • 107. 2026 Census of Population Content Consultation Results: What we heard from Canadians
    Notices and consultations: 92-137-X2024001
    Description: Data from the Census of Population are important for all communities and are vital to plan services that support education, employment, transportation, health care and housing. To maintain the relevance of the census, Statistics Canada evaluates and reviews the census questionnaire content for each census cycle. In preparation for the 2026 Census, Statistics Canada consulted Canadians from fall 2022 to spring 2023. Detailed responses were received from organizations and individuals representing federal, provincial, territorial and local government departments; First Nations people, Métis and Inuit; the general public; academia; special interest groups; and the private sector.

    This report focuses on the findings of the 2026 Census data needs consultation and stakeholder discussions. Chapter 1 explains whom we consulted. Chapter 2 describes the strength of census data users’ needs such as the size of the population of interest. Chapter 3 provides an assessment of the perceived data gaps in census content and the availability and suitability of alternative data sources. Chapter 4 focuses on information needs by census topic and how preparations for the 2024 Census Test will help meet these needs.

  • 108. Study on the Underclassification of Children Eligible for Instruction in the Minority Official Language in the 2021 Census
    Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 98-26-0008
    Description: This report presents the results of a study on the estimated number of children eligible for instruction in the minority official language, pursuant to section 23 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, who were classified as ineligible in the 2021 Census because relationships between family members living at different addresses could not be established within this data source. Using other data sources, including previous censuses and administrative data (such as vital statistics and tax data), we were able to establish these family relationships within the 2021 Census. This report presents the methods and data sources used first, then the results by selected regions and age groups.
