In this thesis, we considered the problem of estimation of proportion of a sensitive characteristic using a randomization device that allows interviewees to answer directly or indirectly to a sensitive question. This method is called an optional randomized response technique. An attempt is made to suggest an optimal optional randomized response estimator, for which the bias and variance expressions are derived, and the efficiency of the optimal estimator is investigated through simulation study using SAS coding. Additionally, the suggested approach is applied to COVID-19. In addition, we made a new optional randomized response technique for estimating prevalence of two sensitive characteristics and their overlap in a population. Estimators are proposed, and the variance expressions are derived, and estimators of variances are suggested, and analytical and empirical comparisons are investigated thoroughly. |
