Sampling Errors

[Mona Ararat]

Dear All,

I need urgent assistance for calculating sampling errors using Complex
Samples in SPSS for complicated measurements such as Infant Mortality
(Direct Estimation). Or however how to calculate sampling errors for
probabilities

I do appreciate any suggestions or redirections to where I can find
something to help in that

Thank you all very much

you can use the split-sample method using the Jack-Knife procedure for the
same. But unfortunately SPSS does not have this built in. I bluntly remember
some one once told the list that there is a script developed for SPSS and
hopefully u can track that down from the net.

If u r interested i can forward u the algorithm - one can translate this
into a routine in any programming language or even write a script for spss.
I did it in C# with the data in MS Access.

HTH,

Thank you all for your prompt reply,

Please Samir send me this, that's ok with me to track it in C#

and Juan, what I really need is the methodology and the algorithm for
calculating sampling errors for Infant mortality using direct estimation, so
If you can redirect me to a place where I can find this clearly I will be
grateful, or any alike thing

I will be waiting for your algorithm Samir

Thank you very much
