Abstract

The present article deals with the estimation of mean number of individuals possess a rare sensitive attribute using Poisson probability distribution, when the population consists of clusters. Unbiased estimation procedures for the mean number of individuals have been suggested and their properties are discussed when the parameter of a rare non-sensitive unrelated attribute is assumed to be known as well as unknown. The suggested estimation procedure is further discussed for situation of stratified cluster population. Empirical studies are carried out to show the dominance of proposed method and resultant estimators over a well-known contemporary estimator.
