Survey methods

Survey regression models

  • linear regressions
  • logistic regressions
  • multinomial logistic regression
  • negative binomial regression
  • ordered logistic regression
  • probit regressions
  • ordered probit regressions
  • Poisson regressions
  • censored and interval regression
  • instrumental variables regression
  • Heckman selection model
  • Probit estimation with selection

Variance and standard error estimates

  • Taylor-series linearization (Huber/White/sandwich)
  • balanced and repeated replications (BRR)*
  • survey jackknife*

Sampling designs

  • sampling (probability) weights
  • stratification
  • clustering
  • multistage designs*
  • finite population correction in all stages*

Features

  • design effects
  • misspecification effects
  • effects for linearcombinations*
  • estimate linear/nonlinear combinations of parameters
  • hypotheses tests for survey data
  • poststratification*
  • estimation with linear constraints
 

Summary statistics

  • population and subpopulation means
  • population and subpopulation proportions
  • population and subpopulation ratios
  • population and subpopulation totals
  • provide full covariance estimates across subpopulations*

Summary tables

  • two-way contingency tables with tests of independence
  • one-way tables*
  • table describing the sampling design of survey data*

Marginal effects

  • marginal effects and elasticities
  • standard errors and confidence intervals
  • computed at means or specified covariate values
  • computed for any predicted statistic

Maximum pseudo-likelihood estimation

  • user-defined likelihoods
  • survey characteristics automatically handled
