    Description:

    In a previous paper, we developed a model to make inference about small area proportions under selection bias in which the binary responses and the selection probabilities are correlated. This is the homogeneous nonignorable selection model; nonignorable selection means that the selection probabilities and the binary responses are correlated. The homogeneous nonignorable selection model was shown to perform better than a baseline ignorable selection model. However, one limitation of the homogeneous nonignorable selection model is that the distributions of the selection probabilities are assumed to be identical across areas. Therefore, we introduce a more general model, the heterogeneous nonignorable selection model, in which the selection probabilities are not identically distributed over areas. We used Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to fit the three models. We illustrate our methodology and compare our models using an example on severe activity limitation of the U.S. National Health Interview Survey. We also perform a simulation study to demonstrate that our heterogeneous nonignorable selection model is needed when there is moderate to strong selection bias.
