Abstract

Calibration estimation, where the sampling weights are adjusted to make certain estimators match known population totals, is commonly used in survey sampling. The generalized regression estimator is an example of a calibration estimator. Given the functional form of the calibration adjustment term, we establish the asymptotic equivalence between the functional‐form calibration estimator and an instrumental variable calibration estimator where the instrumental variable is directly determined from the functional form in the calibration equation. Variance estimation based on linearization is discussed and applied to some recently proposed calibration estimators. The results are extended to the estimator that is a solution to the calibrated estimating equation. Results from a limited simulation study are presented. L'estimation par calage, pour laquelle les poids de sondage sont ajustés de manière à ce que certains estimateurs coïncident avec des totaux connus dans la population, est fréquemment utilisée en échantillonnage. L'estimateur par la régression généralisée est un exemple d'un estimateur de calage. Dans le cas où les facteurs d'ajustement sont exprimés selon une forme fonctionnelle, nous établissons l'équivalence asymptotique entre l'estimateur de calage ave celui avec variable instrumentale, où la variable instrumentale est directement déterminée à partir de la forme fonctionnelle dans l'équation de calage. L'estimation de la variance par linéarisation est traitée et appliquée à certains estimateurs de calage proposés récemment. Les résultats sont généralisés à l'estimateur solution de l'équation estimante calée. Les résultats d'une étude par simulation limitée sont présentés.
