  • 1. Benchmarking the performance of statistical agencies Archived
    Articles and reports: 11-522-X20010016251
    Description:

    This paper discusses in detail issues dealing with the technical aspects of designing and conducting surveys. It is intended for an audience of survey methodologists.This paper provides an initial look at the performance indicators of statistical agencies in the United States in order to offer a framework for benchmarking performance. As shown by this paper, several agencies have taken extremely different approaches in measuring their performance, both in terms of what they are measuring and how they are measuring it. Sharing this information is the first step toward making these measures more robust and comparable across all US agencies and international statistics offices.

  • 2. Communicating quality: discussion Archived
    Articles and reports: 11-522-X20010016302
    Description:

    This paper discusses in detail issues dealing with the technical aspects of designing and conducting surveys. It is intended for an audience of survey methodologists.

    This session provides three more contributions to the continuing discussion concerning the national statistics offices' response to the topic of quality -in particular, the subtopic of communicating quality. These three papers make the important and necessary assumption that national statistical offices have an obligation to report the limitations of the data; users should know and understand those limitations; and, as a result of understanding the limitations, users ought to be able to determine whether the data are fit for their purposes.

  • 3. Research issues in the Survey of Income and Program Participation Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X198800114601
    Description:

    The Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) is an ongoing nationally representative household survey program of the Bureau of the Census. The primary purpose of the SIPP is to improve the measurement of information related to the economic situation of households and persons in the United States. It accomplishes this goal through repeated interviews of sample individuals using a short reference period and a probing questionnaire. The multi-interview design of the SIPP raises methodological and statistical issues of concern to all panel surveys of families and persons. This paper reviews these issues as they relate to the SIPP. The topics reviewed are: 1) questionnaire design; 2) data collection, including respondent rules, data collection mode, length of reference period, and rules for following movers; 3) concepts, design, and estimation; and 4) response error.

  • 4. Nonresponse adjustment procedures at the U.S. Bureau of the Census Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X198600214449
    Description:

    Nearly all surveys and censuses are subject to two types of nonresponse: unit (total) and item (partial). Several methods of compensating for nonresponse have been developed in an attempt to reduce the bias associated with nonresponse. This paper summarizes the nonresponse adjustment procedures used at the U.S. Census Bureau, focusing on unit nonresponse. Some discussion of current and future research in this area is also included.

  • 5. The treatment of missing survey data Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X198600114404
    Description:

    Missing survey data occur because of total nonresponse and item nonresponse. The standard way to attempt to compensate for total nonresponse is by some form of weighting adjustment, whereas item nonresponses are handled by some form of imputation. This paper reviews methods of weighting adjustment and imputation and discusses their properties.
