On Mangat's improved randomized response strategy

On Mangat's improved randomized response strategy

In this paper, an alternative to the Mangat (1994) randomized response sampling procedure for estimating the proportion of human population possessing a sensitive characteristic is suggested. The suggested estimator is unbiased and takes inadmissible values outside the range [0,1] less frequently as...
