ON ALTERNATIVE ESTIMATION TECHNIQUES FOR RANDOMIZED RESPONSE MODELS.

In the present investigation the problem of estimating the mean of quantitative sensitive variable has been considered. Two different alternative estimators have been suggested when data are obtained through Bar-Lev et al. (2004) randomized response model. The comparison study of the proposed estimators with respect to the Bar-Lev et al. (2004) estimator is carried out. The relative dominance picture is also presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
