Description
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.
