The scenario considered here is that of a sample survey having the following two major objectives: (1) identification for future follow up studies of n^* subjects in each of H subdomains, and (2) estimation as of this time of conduct of the survey of the level of some characteristic in each of these subdomains. An additional constraint imposed here is that the sample design is restricted to single stage cluster sampling. A variation of single stage cluster sampling called telescopic single stage cluster sampling (TSSCS) had been proposed in an earlier paper (Levy et al. 1989) as a cost effective method of identifying n^* individuals in each sub domain and, in this article, we investigate the statistical properties of TSSCS in crossectional estimation of the level of a population characteristic. In particular, TSSCS is compared to ordinary single stage cluster sampling (OSSCS) with respect to the reliability of estimates at fixed cost. Motivation for this investigation comes from problems faced during the statistical design of the Shanghai Survey of Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia (SSADD), an epidemiological study of the prevalence and incidence of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.
