Survey methods


Survey regression models
  • linear regression
  • logistic regression
  • multinomial logistic regression
  • negative binomial regression
  • ordered logistic regression
  • probit regression
  • ordered probit regression
  • Poisson regression
  • censored and interval regression
  • instrumental variables regression
  • Heckman selection model
  • Probit estimation with selection

Variance and standard error estimates

  • Taylor-series linearization (Huber/White/sandwich)
  • balanced and repeated replications (BRR)
  • survey jackknife

Sampling designs

  • sampling (probability) weights
  • stratification
  • clustering
  • multistage designs
  • finite population correction in all stages

Features

  • design effects
  • misspecification effects
  • effects for linear combinations
  • estimate linear/nonlinear combinations of parameters
  • hypotheses tests for survey data
  • poststratification
  • estimation with linear constraints
 
Summary statistics
  • population and subpopulation means
  • population and subpopulation proportions
  • population and subpopulation ratios
  • population and subpopulation totals
  • provide full covariance estimates across subpopulations

Summary tables

  • two-way contingency tables with tests of independence
  • one-way tables
  • table describing the sampling design of survey data

Marginal effects

  • marginal effects and elasticities
  • standard errors and confidence intervals
  • computed at means or specified covariate values
  • computed for any predicted statistic

Maximum pseudolikelihood estimation

  • user-defined likelihoods
  • survey characteristics automatically handled
