Modelling Survey Response Data and Determining the Optimal Number of Questionnaires
改进了Huxley的邮件回复模型,在保持简洁直观的同时得出统计有效的结论,并开发了确定最优问卷邮寄数量的方法,帮助研究者以最少成本达到预定回复目标。
ABSTRACT A modification of Huxley's [3] mail response model is proposed. This new approach retains the simplicity and intuitiveness of Huxley's technique and leads to statistically valid conclusions. Using this model, a procedure is developed to find the optimal number of questionnaires that should be mailed in order to meet some prespecified target.
