Constructing efficient strata boundaries in stratified sampling using survey cost
For maximum precision in population parameter estimation under the Stratified sampling design, the optimum strata boundaries (OSB) could be constructed based on a continuous study variable rather than a set of categorical variables. If constructed optimally, the OSB results in homogenous units withi...
