Applied Survey Sampling

Written for students and researchers who wish to understand the conceptual and practical aspects of sampling, Applied Survey Sampling, by Edward A. Blair and Johnny Blair, is designed to be accessible without requiring advanced statistical training. It covers a wide range of topics, from the basics of sampling to special topics such as sampling rare populations, sampling organizational populations, and sampling visitors to a place. Using cases and examples to illustrate sampling principles and procedures, the book thoroughly covers the fundamentals of modern survey sampling, and addresses recent changes in the survey environment such as declining response rates, the rise of Internet surveys, the need to accommodate cell phones in telephone surveys, and emerging uses of social media and big data.

Applied Survey Data Analysis

Highly recommended by the Journal of Official Statistics, The American Statistician, and other top statistical journals, Applied Survey Data Analysis, Third Edition provides an up-to-date overview of state-of-the-art approaches to the analysis of complex sample survey data. Building on the wealth of material on practical approaches to descriptive analysis and regression modeling from the first and second editions, this third edition further expands the topics covered and presents more step-by-step examples of modern approaches to the analysis of survey data using the newest statistical software procedures. New to the Third Edition: Applied Bayesian methods for the analysis of complex sample survey data using available software implementing these methods State-of-the-art methods and software for the analysis of survey data collected from non-probability samples Software for modern applications of machine learning techniques to complex sample survey data A completely revamped website providing code for replicating all the analyses illustrated in the book using Stata, SAS, SPSS, R, Mplus, SUDAAN, WesVar, and IVEware New end-of-chapter exercises, allowing for practice implementing the methods, including Bayesian analysis exercises Updated summaries of the newest literature on the analysis of survey data collected from complex samples An updated review of software packages currently available for the analysis of complex sample survey data Designed for readers working in a wide array of disciplines who conduct secondary analyses of survey data as part of their applied work, this book continues to provide a practical and accessible guide to the analysis of survey data. Continuing to use an example-driven approach to clearly illustrate analysis methods and software, the third edition contains many new examples and practical exercises based on recent versions of real-world survey data sets. Although the authors continue to use Stata for most examples in the text, they also offer the newest code for replicating the examples in other popular software packages on the book’s revamped website.
