p.WR

Generalization of every with replacement sampling design


Description

Computes the selection probability (sampling design) of each with replacement sample

Usage

p.WR(N, m, pk)

Arguments

N

Population size

m

Sample size

pk

A vector containing selection probabilities for each unit in the population

Details

Every with replacement sampling design is a particular case of a multinomial distribution.

p(\mathbf{S}=\mathbf{s})=\frac{m!}{n_1!n_2!\cdots n_N!}∏_{i=1}^N p_k^{n_k}

where n_k is the number of times that the k-th unit is selected in a sample.

Value

The function returns a vector of selection probabilities for every with-replacement sample.

Examples

############
## Example 1
############
# With replacement simple random sampling
# Vector U contains the label of a population of size N=5
U <- c("Yves", "Ken", "Erik", "Sharon", "Leslie")
# Vector pk is the sel?ection probability of the units in the finite population
pk <- c(0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2)
sum(pk)
N <- length(pk)
m <- 3
# The smapling design
p <- p.WR(N, m, pk)
p
sum(p)

############
## Example 2
############
# With replacement PPS random sampling
# Vector U contains the label of a population of size N=5
U <- c("Yves", "Ken", "Erik", "Sharon", "Leslie")
# Vector x is the auxiliary information and y is the variables of interest
x<-c(32, 34, 46, 89, 35)
y<-c(52, 60, 75, 100, 50)
# Vector pk is the sel?ection probability of the units in the finite population
pk <- x/sum(x)
sum(pk)
N <- length(pk)
m <- 3
# The smapling design
p <- p.WR(N, m, pk)
p
sum(p)
