Produktbeschreibung

Recent years have seen a sharp increase in the application of sophisticated statistical modelling methods to sample survey data. Analysis of Survey Data aims to provide a solid basis for the statistical theory underpinning these applications. This book brings together two key statistical traditions, statistical modelling - such as regression analysis - and sample survey methods, as used for sample design and estimation. * Provides broad coverage of statistical methodology used in the analysis of survey data. * Discusses the theoretical foundations of this methodology from a range of perspectives. * Covers of a wide range of techniques, including categorical data analysis, generalized linear models, and longitudinal data analysis. * Addresses issues of complex sampling and incomplete data. * Features examples showing how methods are used in practice. * Each chapter is written by a leading expert in the field. * Includes an up-to-date bibliography. Analysis of Survey Data is aimed primarily at statisticians interested in methods of analysing sample survey data. It should also provide a useful reference to many other survey data analysts in the social sciences and in the public and private sectors.
