公共使用调查数据的经验似然推断

Empirical Likelihood Inference With Public-Use Survey Data

Puying Zhao, J. N. K. Rao, Changbao Wu

摘要:

公共使用调查数据是社会科学和卫生研究人员建立统计模型和对目标有限人群进行推断的重要信息来源。本文通过伪经验似然法和样本经验似然法给出了两种通用的推理工具。理论结果的点估计和线性或非线性假设检验,涉及通过估计方程定义的参数,并与所提出的方法的实施的实际问题进行了讨论。模拟研究的结果和对加拿大统计局2016年综合社会调查数据集的应用表明,所提出的方法在不同的情况下都能很好地工作。本文提出的推理过程和理论结果使经验似然法成为复杂调查数据使用者的实用工具。

英文摘要:

Public-use survey data are an important source of information for researchers in social science and health studies to build statistical models and make inferences on the target finite population. This paper presents two general inferential tools through the pseudo empirical likelihood and the sample empirical likelihood methods. Theoretical results on point estimation and linear or nonlinear hypothesis tests involving parameters defined through estimating equations are established, and practical issues with the implementation of the proposed methods are discussed. Results from simulation studies and an application to the 2016 General Social Survey dataset of Statistics Canada show that the proposed methods work well under different scenarios. The inferential procedures and theoretical results presented in the paper make the empirical likelihood a practically useful tool for users of complex survey data.
