REGRESSION TYPE DOUBLE SAMPLING ESTIMATOR OF POPULATION MEAN USING AUXILIARY INFORMATION
Keywords:
Auxiliary Information, Bias, Mean Squared Error, Percent Relative EfficiencyAbstract
In this paper, a regression type double sampling estimator is introduced to estimate the population mean by using auxiliary information. The expressions for bias and mean squared error are found for the new introduced regression type double sampling estimator of population mean. A comparative study with some of the well-known estimators of the population mean has been done. A separate numerical study is also included to illustrate the performance of the new introduced estimator.
