Probabilistic editing has been introduced to enable valid inference using established survey sampling theory in situations when some of the collected data points may have measurement errors and are therefore submitted to an editing process. To reduce the editing effort and avoid over-editing, in...

The present paper shows that product‐specific spatial price variation usually causes the Country‐Product‐Dummy (CPD) method to be biased. In cases where it is not, the CPD method is still inefficient and statistical inference is invalid. The paper develops a non‐linear generalization of...

An important role is ascribed to students' social networks in explaining both social and ethnic differentials in educational achievement and attainment. For example, students' social networks are assumed to influence their probability of success by providing educationally-relevant resources and...
