- 2,011. Socio-economic Statistics and Public Policy: A New Role for Microsimulation Modeling ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M1995081Geography: CanadaDescription:
Users of socio-economic statistics typically want more and better information. Often, these needs can be met simply by more extensive data collections, subject to usual concerns over financial costs and survey respondent burdens. Users, particularly for public policy purposes, have also expressed a continuing, and as yet unfilled, demand for an integrated and coherent system of socio-economic statistics. In this case, additional data will not be sufficient; the more important constraint is the absence of an agreed conceptual approach.
In this paper, we briefly review the state of frameworks for social and economic statistics, including the kinds of socio-economic indicators users may want. These indicators are motivated first in general terms from basic principles and intuitive concepts, leaving aside for the moment the practicalities of their construction. We then show how a coherent structure of such indicators might be assembled.
A key implication is that this structure requires a coordinated network of surveys and data collection processes, and higher data quality standards. This in turn implies a breaking down of the "stovepipe" systems that typify much of the survey work in national statistical agencies (i.e. parallel but generally unrelated data "production lines"). Moreover, the data flowing from the network of surveys must be integrated. Since the data of interest are dynamic, the proposed method goes beyond statistical matching to microsimulation modeling. Finally, these ideas are illustrated with preliminary results from the LifePaths model currently under development in Statistics Canada.
Release date: 1995-07-30 - 2,012. Sample design of the National Population Health Survey ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X19950011661Geography: CanadaDescription:
In 1994, Statistics Canada began data collection for the National Population Health Survey (NPHS), a household survey designed to mesure the health status of Canadians and to expand knowledge of health determinants. The survey is longitudinal, with data being collected on selected panel members every second year. This article focuses on the NPHS sample design ant its rationale. Topics include sample allocation, representativeness, and selection; modifications in Quebec and the territories; and integration of the NPHS with the National Longitudinal Survey of Children. The final section considers some methodological issues to be addresses in future waves of the survey.
Release date: 1995-07-27 - 2,013. XECON: An Experimental / Evolutionary Model of Economic Growth ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M1995067Geography: CanadaDescription:
The role of technical innovation in economic growth is both a current matter of keen public policy interest, and active exploration in economic theory. However, formal economic theorizing is often constrained by considerations of mathematical tractability. Evolutionary economic theories which are realized as computerized microsimulation models offer significant promise both for transcending mathematical constraints and addressing fundamental questions in a more realistic and flexible manner. This paper sketches XEcon, a microsimulation model of economic growth in the evolutionary tradition.
Release date: 1995-06-30 - 2,014. Visitor sample surveys ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X199500114406Description:
This paper discusses the design of visitor surveys. To illustrate, two recent surveys are described. The first is a survey of visitors to National Park Service areas nationwide throughout the year (1992). The second is a survey of recreational users of the three-river basin around Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, during a twelve-month period. Both surveys involved sampling in time with temporal as well as spatial stratification. Sampling units had the form of site-period pairs for the stage before the final, visitor sampling stage. Random assignment of sample sites to periods permits the computation of unbiased estimates for the temporal strata (e.g., monthly and seasonal estimates) as well as estimates for strata defined by region and by type of use.
Release date: 1995-06-15 - 2,015. Outlier robust Horvitz-Thompson estimators ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X199500114407Description:
The Horvitz-Thompson estimator (HT-estimator) is not robust against outliers. Outliers in the population may increase its variance though it remains unbiased. The HT-estimator is expressed as a least squares functional to robustify it through M-estimators. An approximate variance of the robustified HT-estimator is derived using a kind of influence function for sampling and an estimator of this variance is developed. An adaptive method to choose an M-estimator leads to minimum estimated risk estimators. These estimators and robustified HT-estimators are often more efficient than the HT-estimator when outliers occur.
Release date: 1995-06-15 - 2,016. Median estimation using auxiliary information ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X199500114408Description:
The problem of estimating the median of a finite population when an auxiliary variable is present is considered. Point and interval estimators based on a non-informative Bayesian approach are proposed. The point estimator is compared to other possible estimators and is seen to perform well in a variety of situations.
Release date: 1995-06-15 - 2,017. Markov chain designs for one-per-stratum sampling ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X199500114409Description:
Classical results in finite population sampling tell us that systematic sampling is the most efficient equal-probability one-per-stratum design for certain kinds of autocorrelated superpopulations, but stratified simple random sampling may be much better than systematic sampling if the superpopulation is a trend with uncorrelated errors. What if the superpopulation consists of a trend plus autocorrelated errors? Intuitively, some sort of “compromise” between the two designs might be better than either. Such compromise designs are constructed in this paper and are shown to be examples of Markov chain designs, a wide class of methods for one-per-stratum selection from a finite population. These designs include as special cases systematic sampling, balanced systematic sampling and stratified simple random sampling with one sampling unit per stratum. First and second-order inclusion probabilities are derived for Markov chain designs, yielding the Horvitz-Thompson estimator and its variance. Efficiency of the Horvitz-Thompson estimator is evaluated using superpopulation models. Numerical examples show that new designs considered here can be more efficient than standard designs for superpopulations consisting of trend plus autocorrelated errors. An example of the implementation of Markov chain designs for the 1992 National Resources Inventory in Alaska is given.
Release date: 1995-06-15 - 2,018. Between-state heterogeneity of undercount rates and surrogate variables in the 1990 U.S. census ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X199500114410Description:
As part of the decision on adjustment of the 1990 Decennial Census, the U.S. Census Bureau investigated possible heterogeneity of undercount rates between parts of different states falling in the same adjustment cell or poststratum. Five “surrogate variables” believed to be associated with undercount were analyzed using a large extract from the census and significant heterogeneity was found. Analysis of Post Enumeration Survey on undercount rates showed that more variance was explained by poststratification variables than by state, supporting the decision to use the poststratum as the adjustment cell. Significant interstate heterogeneity was found in 19 out of 99 poststratum groups (mainly in nonurban areas), but there was little if any evidence that the poststratified estimator was biased against particular states after aggregating across poststrata. Nonetheless, this issue should be addressed in future coverage evaluation studies.
Release date: 1995-06-15 - 2,019. Modelling net undercoverage in the 1991 Canadian census ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X199500114411Description:
In 1991, Statistics Canada for the first time adjusted the Population Estimates Program for undercoverage in the 1991 Census. The Census coverage studies provided reliable estimates of undercoverage at the provincial level and for national estimates of large age - sex domains. However, the population series required estimates of undercoverage for age - sex domains within each province and territory. Since the direct survey estimates for some of these small domains had large standard errors due to the small sample size in the domain, small area modelling techniques were needed. In order to incorporate the varying degrees of reliability of the direct survey estimates, a regression model utilizing an Empirical Bayes methodology was used to estimate the undercoverage in small domains. A raking ratio procedure was then applied to the undercoverage estimates to preserve consistency with the marginal direct survey estimates. The results of this modelling process are shown along with the estimated reduction in standard errors.
Release date: 1995-06-15 - 2,020. Weighting schemes for household panel surveys ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X199500114412Description:
Household panel surveys often start with a sample of households and then attempt to follow all the members of those households for the life of the panel. At subsequent waves data are collected for the original sample members and for all the persons who are living with the sample members at the time. It is desirable to include the data collected both for the original sample persons and for the persons living with them in making person-level cross-sectional estimates for a particular wave. Similarly, it is desirable to include data for all the households for which data are collected at a particular wave in making household-level cross-sectional estimates for that wave. This paper reviews weighting schemes that can be used for these purposes. These weighting schemes may also be used in other settings in which units have more than one way of being selected for the sample.

The National Population Health Survey (NPHS) is designed to enhance the understanding of the processes affecting health. The survey collects cross-sectional as well as longitudinal data. In 1994/95 the survey interviewed a panel of 17,276 individuals, then returned to interview them a second time in 1996/97. The response rate for these individuals was 96% in 1996/97. Data collection from the panel will continue for up to two decades. For cross-sectional purposes, data were collected for a total of 81,000 household residents in all provinces (except people on Indian reserves or on Canadian Forces bases) in 1996/97.
This overview illustrates the variety of information available by presenting data on perceived health, chronic conditions, injuries, repetitive strains, depression, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, consultations with medical professionals, use of medications and use of alternative medicine.

- Articles and reports: 11-522-X202200100017Description: In this paper, we look for presence of heterogeneity in conducting impact evaluations of the Skills Development intervention delivered under the Labour Market Development Agreements. We use linked longitudinal administrative data covering a sample of Skills Development participants from 2010 to 2017. We apply a causal machine-learning estimator as in Lechner (2019) to estimate the individualized program impacts at the finest aggregation level. These granular impacts reveal the distribution of net impacts facilitating further investigation as to what works for whom. The findings suggest statistically significant improvements in labour market outcomes for participants overall and for subgroups of policy interest.Release date: 2024-06-28

- Articles and reports: 12-001-X202400100001Description: Inspired by the two excellent discussions of our paper, we offer some new insights and developments into the problem of estimating participation probabilities for non-probability samples. First, we propose an improvement of the method of Chen, Li and Wu (2020), based on best linear unbiased estimation theory, that more efficiently leverages the available probability and non-probability sample data. We also develop a sample likelihood approach, similar in spirit to the method of Elliott (2009), that properly accounts for the overlap between both samples when it can be identified in at least one of the samples. We use best linear unbiased prediction theory to handle the scenario where the overlap is unknown. Interestingly, our two proposed approaches coincide in the case of unknown overlap. Then, we show that many existing methods can be obtained as a special case of a general unbiased estimating function. Finally, we conclude with some comments on nonparametric estimation of participation probabilities.Release date: 2024-06-25
