Goals for Statistical Uses of Administrative Records: The Next 10 Years
提出未来10年加强行政记录统计用途的六个目标,并描述实现这些目标的积极策略,三位机构代表对此进行了讨论。
United States statistical agencies use data from administrative record systems to develop program statistics, to establish statistical data bases, and to enhance and evaluate census and survey data. Such uses of administrative records are likely to increase as efforts to control costs and respondent burden of statistical programs continue. This review article proposes six goals for enhanced statistical uses of administrative records in the next 10 years and describes elements of an activist strategy to achieve them. The discussants, representing three agencies that make important statistical uses of administrative records, give their reactions to the proposed goals and strategy.
