Quasi-randomization approaches estimate latent participation probabilities for units from a nonprobability / convenience sample. Estimation of participation probabilities for convenience units allows their combination with units from the randomized survey sample to form a survey-weighted domain...

In Bayesian theory, the data together with the prior produce a posterior. We show that it is also possible to follow the opposite route, that is, to use data and posterior information (both of which are observable) to reveal the prior (which is not observable). We then apply the theory to...

Nonprobability (convenience) samples are increasingly sought to reduce the estimation variance for one or more population variables of interest that are estimated using a randomized survey (reference) sample by increasing the effective sample size. Estimation of a population quantity derived...
