Itroductio Sigh ad Srivastava (1980) proposed a samplig scheme for which the usual regressio estimator is ubiased. The procedure suggeskd by them ivolves calculatio of coditioal probabtlitle' if sample is to be sc:lectcd uit by uit. I this paper a alterat ive samplmg scheme bas bee sugge.;ted. The proposed samplig scheme has advatage of extesio to polyomial regressio estimator ad muitivar,iate regressio estimators. The efficiecies of the proposed samplig strategies with those i vogue have also bee compared. -Istitute for Researeh i Medical Statistics ICMR). New Delhi.

2 GIlHIiRAL RIlGRB~8ION ESHMA10R Proposed Samplig Scheme. 2.1 Samplig Scheme Providig Ubiased Regressioll Estimator Suppose that the populatio uder cosideratio cosists of N distict ad idetifiable uits ad a ~amole of size is desired to be draw from it. Further. suppose y i~ the study va;-iable ad x il the auxiliary variable. We as~ume that the iformatio o the auxiliarv variable is available for all the uit, of populatio The samplig schemc= providig u biased regressio e~timator is as uder: (a) Select a sample of size bv simple radom samplig ad without replacemet Calculate 3 2 (the sample mea square) for the sample 0: so selected, where I s!= --~ ~ (x, - x)', lt = ~ X, x - i= 1 i = 1 (b) Select a radom umber j betwee 0 ad M where M"> Max (s~) It is importat to metio here that maximum of s! will geerally be kow sice x~s are all kow to u~. (c) Ifj is less tha or equal to s; relai the sample selected at step (a) otherwise proceed to step (a) agai for selectig a sample ad cotiue tho process till the sample is ultimately selected. It is ealy to see that for abovo lamolig scheme the probability of selectig a sample's' is proportioal to tbe variability i tbe sample for the auxiliary variable i.e. ft P,= i s_ (~) S; It is assumed here that o combiatio of uits from N uits of the populatio have Rame value of the auxiliary variable so that all samples have o zero probabilities of selectio This samplig scheme is simp ler tba that by Sigh ad Srivastava ( 980) i the sese that it does ot ivolve calculatio of coditioal probability of succe.1s at the secod draw. However it ivolves umber of rejectios. But because 001y oe sample is to be selected it may ot be a limitatio.

The extesio for a geeral kth degree polyo mial regressio estimator is straight forward. The proposed samplig Icheme cosists of the followig steps. (a) Select a sample of size by simple radom samplig without replacemet. For the selected sample, calculate where m =. l: (XI - x)jl (Yt - ')Il 1=1 (b) Select a radom umber j from 0 to M, where, M;;;' Max (A.) Here also M will be kow geerally sice xc are all kow to UI.

6 OINBI.AL UORBISIOM ESTIMATORS 211 Therefore, the usual quadratic regressio estimator is ubiased for this sample scheme. The variace of this estimator to the first order of approximatio is give by N-,,(N - J) (L01 (1 - l)~2» where "/)(:) is the correlatio ratio. Thus for larg~ samples the efficiecy of the proposed samplig scheme is same as the efficiecy of the usual quadratic regressio estimator uder simple radom samplig without replacemet. 2.3 Sampli"g Scheme Providig U"bialed Multi-variate RegreJJio Eltimator Here we cosider the samplig scheme for which 2-variate regressio estimator is ubiased ad the extesio for a geeral k-variate regressio estimator thereafter is straightforward. Let Y., Xl' ad X,/ be the values of the study character (y), auxilliary characters Xl ad XI for ith uit of the populatio (i= 1, 2,... N). It is assumed that the auxilliary characters are kow for all the populatio uits. The samplig scheme the cosists of the followig steps: (a) Select a samale of size " by simple radom samplig without replacemet. For the selected sample calculate (b) Selcct a radom umber j from 0 to M, where, M;> Max. (L.) (c) If j ~ L., retai the sample, otherwise proceed to step (a) for selectig aother lample ad cotiue the process till a sample is selected. Now, it i. clear thai for the suggested samplig scheme, the probabi Jity of selectig a sample 's' is

CODipari.o. For large samples, it has bee observed that the efficiecy of the usual estimators uder proposed samplig scheme. is of the same order as that of the same estimators uder simple radom samplig without replacemet. _For comparig the efficiecy of the proposed strategies for small lamples, we cosider the followig empirical comparisos. 3.1 We colider 18 populatios of size 15 each.

It ca be see that strategies I ad 2 provide ubiased estimators whereas, the remaiig strategies provide biased estimators. The variaces/mea square errors of above strategies for sample of size 4 have bee worked out as deoted by Vt. Vt. V 3, v, ad V6 ad pre<eted i Table 1. Followig observatios ca be made about the efficiecy of differet samplig strategies.

I situatios, where the relatioship betwee y ad x is other tha liear, e.g. populatios 1 to 3 ad 10 to IS, the gai i efficiecy of the suggested samplig scheme-2 over other strategies is quite cosiderable. These results idicate that the performace of the samplig scheme 2 is highly satisfactory. particularly whe the fuctioal relatioship betwee y ad x is other tha liear. 3.2 Here we cosider 18 populatios of size 12 each.
