Abstract

The existence of missing observations in the estimation problems present in random sampling can be considered unimportant. But the risk of misunderstanding is high because the non-responses may be generated by the existence of a very different behavior of a group of units. This is especially important when human populations are sampled. The solution of subsampling among the non-respondents is the most intelligent approach in such cases. The usual simple random sampling models are revisited and their ranked set sample counterpart developed. Generally they are more accurate.
