A generalization of Huang's randomized response procedure for the estimation of population proportion and sensitivity level

摘要

A generalization of Huang's (2004) randomized response procedure is proposed by adapting Franklin's (1989) and Singh and Singh's (1993) designs at the second stage. A simple and effective implementation of the method is also introduced. The suggested procedure gives rise to accurate population proportion estimators and in addition permits the estimation of the sensitivity level.
