Abstract: | In the present paper, we have consisdered the situation of multi–character survey where the study variables, beside being poorly correlated with the selection probabilities are also sensitive in nature. Randomized Response technique (RRT) proposed by Chaudhuri and Adhikary (1990) is used to elicit the information on the sensitive character. The empirical study carried out shows the relative efficiency of the transformation suggested by Basnel and Singh (1985) over the transformations suggested by Rao (1966) and Amahia et al.(1989) under a super population model. |
