Sample coordination methods and systems for establishment surveys

Sample coordination methods and systems for establishment surveys
Sample coordination methods and systems for establishment surveys

Sample coordination has been a topic of interest in the world of establishment surveys, from well before the first International Conference on Establishment Surveys (ICES-I). A range of procedures have been proposed in the literature for sample coordination, and these have given rise to several implementations in different countries. The national statistical offices of different countries currently use so-called “sample coordination systems.” “Sample coordination methods” and “sample coordination systems” represent, in our opinion, two different concepts. The existing literature does not distinguish between them. Moreover, a definition of a sample coordination system has not yet been provided, while the term is widely used. This chapter aims to review these two concepts and to underline the similarities and distinctions between them. First, we review the main existing methods for sample coordination, and highlight their strengths and weaknesses. Next, we enumerate the components of a coordination system and review some of those currently being used in different countries. Finally, we distinguish “sample coordination methods” and “sample coordination systems.”

Abstract

Sample coordination has been a topic of interest in the world of establishment surveys, from well before the first International Conference on Establishment Surveys (ICES-I). A range of procedures have been proposed in the literature for sample coordination, and these have given rise to several implementations in different countries. The national statistical offices of different countries currently use so-called “sample coordination systems.” “Sample coordination methods” and “sample coordination systems” represent, in our opinion, two different concepts. The existing literature does not distinguish between them. Moreover, a definition of a sample coordination system has not yet been provided, while the term is widely used. This chapter aims to review these two concepts and to underline the similarities and distinctions between them. First, we review the main existing methods for sample coordination, and highlight their strengths and weaknesses. Next, we enumerate the components of a coordination system and review some of those currently being used in different countries. Finally, we distinguish “sample coordination methods” and “sample coordination systems.”
