Jacknife estimation of functions of stratum means

HOWARD L. JONES*

*Author's address: 102 Park Lane, Kerrville, Texas.

The jackknife method of investigating and reducing the bias in nonlinear estimates of parameters is applied to stratified samples from a multivariate population of finite size. Attention is focused on estimators that can be expressed as functions of sample means. Examples are estimators of ratios and some estimators of products.

Key Words: Asymptotic theory • Jackknife estimation • Nonlinear estimates • Stratified sampling
