Abstract

This study investigates the effects of response errors on population parameters obtained by double sampling for stratification at the interview and data processing level. Simulation study is carried out to investigate the effects of the response errors on these estimates. Finite population is generated using R-statistical package and study variables are investigated in the presence and absence of errors. The results obtained are compared. It is observed that, in the presence of response errors on the estimates results in underestimation of the population parameters.
