초록

In the present paper, we propose a new randomization device free mail survey method. The estimator based on proposed model is unbiased and more efficient than the estimator based on SIngh, Mangat and Singh model (SMS-model)(1993) when $\pi$<1/2, and more protective than SMS-model in view of the protection of privacy regardless of the values of $\pi$ and $\pi_Y$ only if we count the number of say 'Yes' from the respondents. However, If we consider the respondents that say 'No', the SMS-model is more protective than our model.
