Abstract

Estimators for domains and approximate estimators of their variance are derived using post-stratified complex sample. Furthermore we propose an adjusted variance estimator of a domain mean in case of considering the post-stratified complex sample as simple random sample. A simulation study based on the data of Farm Household Economy Survey is presented to compare variance estimators numerically. From the study we showed that our adjusted variance estimator compensate for the under-estimation problem considerably.
