Abstract

Two-phase sampling is a useful technique for sample surveys, particularly when prior auxiliary data is not accessible. The ranks of the auxiliary variable often coincide with those of the research variable when two variables are correlated. By considering this relationship, we can significantly increase estimator accuracy. In this paper, we use the ranks of the auxiliary variable along with extreme values to estimate the population mean of the study variable. Up to a first-order approximation, we analyze the characteristics of the suggested class of estimators with an emphasis on biases and mean squared errors in stratified two-phase sampling. The theoretical results are verified using different datasets and a simulation study, which demonstrates that the proposed estimators outperform the existing ones in terms of percent relative efficiency.
