Abstract: This article addresses the problem of estimating the proportion π S of the population belonging to a sensitive group using optional randomized response technique in stratified sampling based on Mangat model that has proportional and Neyman allocation and larger gain in efficiency. Numerically, it is found that the suggested model is more efficient than Kim and Warde stratified randomized response model and Mangat model.
