Abstract

ABSTRACTIn this article, a new notion of “quasi-empirical” Bayes estimation is developed for estimating the proportion of a sensitive attribute in a population by making use of both a prior distribution of prevalence of the sensitive attribute in addition to the known prior distribution of an unrelated characteristic. The proposed quasi-empirical Bayes estimate is compared with those of the unrelated question model due to Greenberg et al. by means of a simulation study.
