The book delineates multiple sources of errors, including errors due to non-observation, i.e. failure to secure data from some of the selected respondents, and those due to measurement errors during data collection and data processing. It also shows why, given sufficient evidence of different sources of error and their interrelationships, it is important to develop a Total Error Model for survey estimates, since attempts to reduce or control errors of one type may have adverse effects on other components of total error. Moreover, it examines the nature of the total error-type models, namely those that accommodate several sources of error in order to estimate more complex parameters than the total or mean alone. Lastly, it reveals why the development of appropriate cost models is essential in the context of total survey design. As such, the book offers an insightful and valuable resource for researchers and professionals/practitioners alike.
Pulakesh Chandra Maiti is a Professor at the Economic Research Unit of the Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata, and obtained his Ph.D. (Statistics) degree from the same institute. His expertise includes survey sampling methodology, and in his academic/professional capacity, he has travelled to numerous countries in Asia, Europe, Africa and other continents.
