Abstract
Using auxiliary information, the calibration approach modifies the original design weights to enhance the mean estimates. This paper initially proposes two families of estimators based on an adaptation of the estimators presented by recent researchers, and then, it presents a new family of calibration estimators with the set of some calibration constraints under stratified median ranked set sampling (MRSS). The result has also been implemented to the situation of two-stage stratified median ranked set sampling (MRSS). To best of our knowledge, we are presenting for the first time calibration-based mean estimators under stratified MRSS, so the performance evaluation is made between adapted and proposed estimators on behalf of the simulation study with real and artificial datasets. For real-world data or applications, we use information on the body mass index (BMI) of 800 people in Turkey in 2014 as a research variable and age as an auxiliary variable.
