Who needs RDD? Combining directory listings with cell phone exchanges for an alternative telephone sampling frame
(
Elsevier
, 2011 , Article)
Abstract
The traditional Random Digit Dialing method (list-assisted RDD using a frame of landline phone numbers) is clearly under threat. The difficulty and costs of completing telephone surveys have increased due to ...
Confidence intervals for the two-parameter exponential reliability with type II censored data
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
We consider interval estimation of the reliability of the two-parameter exponential distribution.We consider asymptotic intervals, Bayesian, as well as intervals based on the generalized pivot variable. Transformations to ...
