Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Sample Design and Allocation for Random Digit Dialling(Springer, 2005) Ayhan, HO; Islam, MQSample design and sample allocation methods are developed for random digit dialling in household telephone surveys. The proposed method is based on a two-way stratification of telephone numbers. A weighted probability proportional to size sample allocation technique is used, with auxiliary variables about the telephone coverage rates, within local telephone exchanges of each substrata. This makes the sampling design nearly "self-weighting" in residential numbers when the prior information is well assigned. A computer program generates random numbers for the local areas within the existing phone capacities. A simulation study has shown greater sample allocation gain by the weighted probabilities proportional to size measures over other sample allocation methods. The amount of dialling required to obtain the sample is less than for proportional allocation. A decrease is also observed on the gain in sample allocation for some methods through the increasing sample sizes.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 22Regression Analysis With a Dtochastic Design Variable(Wiley, 2006) Sazak, HS; Tiku, ML; Islam, MQIn regression models, the design variable has primarily been treated as a nonstochastic variable. In numerous situations, however, the design variable is stochastic. The estimation and hypothesis testing problems in such situations are considered. Real life examples are given.
