摘要:In the present paper, we have proposed some improved estimators of the population mean utilizing the information on two auxiliary variables adopting the idea of two-phase sampling under non-response. In order to propose the estimators, we have assumed that the study variable and first auxiliary variable suffer from non-response while the second (additional) auxiliary variable is free from non-response. We have derived the expressions for biases and mean square errors of the proposed estimators and compared them with that of usual estimator and some well known existing estimators of the population mean. The theoretical results have also been illustrated with some empirical data.
