Response errors in the weighted estimator
1982
Nealon, J.
Extract: Farm operators selected from the 1981 June Enumerative Survey (JES) in three states were reinterviewed to measure the repeatability of responses for "farm acres operated." This farm characteristic is used to obtain weighted estimates for livestock items and the number of farms. Only 31 percent of the operators reported the same value for farm acres operated on both interviews. Also, about one-third of the responses during the reinterview were not even within 10 percent of the JES value. Despite the response differences, most of the weighted estimates from the two interviews were not significantly different. The extent to which the response errors decreased the precision of the estimates is not known.
