A chain ratio exponential type estimator in two-phase sampling using auxiliary information

This paper advocates the problem of estimating the population mean of the study variable y using the information on two auxiliary variables x and z. We have suggested the family of chain ratio exponential type estimators in two-phase (or double) sampling. The bias and mean squared error (MSE) are ob...
