Abstract

In this article, an alternative randomized response model is proposed. The proposed model is found to be more efficient than the randomized response model studied by Bar-Lev, Bobovitch, and Boukai (2004). The relative efficiency of the proposed model is studied with respect to the Bar-Lev et al. (2004) model under various situations.
