  • 41. Employment by choice and necessity among Canadian-born and immigrant seniors
    Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400400002
    Description: Many seniors work past their mid-60s for various reasons. Some find it necessary to keep working because of inadequate retirement savings, mortgage payments, unforeseen expenses, or the responsibility to support children and other family members in Canada or abroad. Others choose to work to provide a sense of personal fulfillment, stay active and remain engaged. This article uses data from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) and examines the degree to which Canadian-born and immigrant seniors aged 65 to 74 worked by choice or necessity in 2022.

  • 42. Retention and recruitment of young skilled workers: Results by province and territory
    Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400400003
    Description: Since Canada is a vast country with diverse job opportunities available in various locations, some provinces and territories may face challenges and opportunities in retaining and attracting young skilled talent. This article is the first to inform the issue by determining the share of youth who grew up in a certain province or territory and eventually obtained a postsecondary education but left to work in another province or territory. The article also looks at young skilled workers who entered a province or territory to work, as a share of that province or territory’s initial population of homegrown young skilled labour.

  • 44. Women-owned small and medium-sized enterprises in Canada: Exporting story
    Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202400400005
    Description: The participation of women-owned businesses in exports is important for policies aiming to ensure that the benefits of international trade reach all groups. Women-owned small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Canada are as likely to export as those owned by men, and their export intensity (exports as a share of total sales) was not significantly different. This article examines factors related to the exporting success of women-owned small and medium-sized enterprises in Canada.

  • 6,941. Large scale imputation of survey data Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800254833
    Description: Owners of small businesses complain about the quantity of forms they are required to collectors of statistics. Administrative data are an alternative source but do not usually include all the information required by the survey takers.

    The “Tax Data Imputation System” makes use of tax data collected from a large number of businesses by Revenue Canada and data obtained by sample survey for a small subset of these businesses. Survey data is imputed (estimated) for all the businesses not actually surveyed using a “hot-deck” technique, with adjustments made to ensure certain edit rules are satisfied. The results of a simulation study suggest that this procedure has reasonable statistical properties. Estimators (of means or totals) are unbiased with variances of comparable size to the corresponding ratio estimators.

  • 6,942. Some methods for updating sample survey frames and their effects on estimation Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800254834
    Description: Frames designed for continuous surveys are sometimes used for ad hoc surveys which require selection of sampling units separate from those selected for the continuous survey. This paper presents an unbiased extension of Keyfitz’s (1951) sample updating method to the case where a portion of the frame has been reserved for surveys other than the main continuous survey. A simple although biased alternative is presented.

    The scope under Platek and Singh’s (1975) design strategy for an area based continuous survey requiring updating is then expanded to encompass rotation of first stage units, establishment of a separate special survey sub-frame, and procedures to prevent re-selection of ultimate sampling units.

    The methods are evaluated in a Monte Carlo study using Census data to simulate the design for the Canadian Labour Force Survey.

  • 6,943. Alternative estimators in PPS sampling Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800254835
    Description: Some estimators alternative to the usual PPS estimator are suggested in this paper for situations where the size measure used for PPS sampling is not correlated with the study variable and where data are available on another supplementary variable (size measure). Properties of these estimators are studied under super-population models and also empirically.

  • 6,944. Non-response and imputation Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800254830
    Description:

    The problems of dealing with non-response at various stages of survey planning are discussed with implications for the mean square error, practicality and possible advantages and disadvantages. Conceptual issues of editing and imputation are also considered with regard to complexity and levels of imputation. The methods of imputation include weighting, duplication, and substitution of historical records. The paper includes some methodology on the bias and variance.

  • 6,946. The effect of a two-stage sample design on tests of independence Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800154830
    Description: When a two-stage sample is used to collect data, the correlations between the sampled units make the ?2 test of independence invalid. Use of the ordinary ?2 tables generally results in a test which is greater than the desired level of significance. The effect of the sample design comes from two main areas: the sample size within PSU’s and the degree to which the characteristics are independent within each PSU. The effect of the sample size within PSU’s is greatest when there is no independence within each PSU, and diminishes as the degree of independence increases.

  • 6,947. Approximate tests of independence and goodness of fit based on stratified multi-stage samples Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800154831
    Description: The impact on linear statistics of the sample design used in obtaining survey data is the subject of much of sampling literature. Recently, more attention has been paid to the design’s impact on non-linear statistics; the major factor inhibiting these investigations has been the problem of estimating at least the first two moments of such statistics. The present article examines the problem of estimating the variances of non-linear statistics from complex samples, in the light of existing literature. The behaviour of the chi-square statistic computed from a complex sample to test hypotheses of goodness of fit or independence is studied. Alternative tests are developed and their properties studied in simulation experiments.

  • 6,949. A comparison of correlated response variance estimates obtained in the 1961, 1971 and 1976 Censuses Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800154833
    Description: The total variance of a survey estimate incorporates sampling variance, simple response variance and correlated response variance. The last component reflects the part of the total variance due to a common influence on a group of respondents. In the Canadian census, self-enumeration was adopted as the standard method of enumeration in the 1971 Census. One factor in favor of introducing this method was evidence, from the 1961 Census, that correlated response variance made an important contribution to the total variance of census estimates. Based on a study conducted using interpenetration of interviewers, this article compares correlated response variances from the 1961, 1971 and 1976 Censuses. The empirical results demonstrate that although the self-enumeration adopted in the 1971 Census did not completely remove the correlated response variance, this approach has considerably reduced the magnitude of this component of variance for almost all the characteristics examined.

  • 6,950. A study of refusal rates to the physical measures component of the Canada Health Survey Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X197800154834
    Description: This article presents the findings of an experimental design set up to study the variation in refusal rates to the different modules of the physical measures component of the Canada Health Survey. The study indicated that interviewer teams have a significant impact on refusal rates. Also, a large proportion of the refusals was due to total family refusals rather than individual refusals within responding families.
