Using Incidence Sampling to Estimate Covariances

Thomas R. Knapp

Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 1979, vol. 4, issue 1, 41-58

Abstract: This paper is an attempt to illustrate the generality of incidence sampling for estimating a parameter whose estimator preserves the unbiasedness of generalized symmetric means, a property which the sample covariance possesses but which the sample correlation coefficient does not. The problem of missing data is also addressed.
