Hello, I have got a cluster sample using an election dataset where I already had the final results of a county-specific election. I am trying to figure out what would be the best sampling design for my data. The structure of the dataset is: 1) polling station (in general schools where people vote, for a county, for example, there are 15 polling stations) 2) inside each polling station, there

Hello, Is there a way to get complex sample variances in the survey package on summary statistics other than means? If not, can they be added to a future version? It would be be great to have them on totals, quantiles, ratios, and tables (eg row percent, columns percent, etc). Thanks. Fred --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...however. I've gotten my data in, and specified the design. Looks like the weighting is right (based on published population estimates from these data), but now I'd like to check my "marginal means" for proportions against those that have been published. I'd think that "svyratio" would do the trick, but one needs to specify both the numerator and the denominator... I'm looking for a simple ratio of males to females, and this is eluding me. I can't just use a "1" as the denominator, and I want the whole population described as two values that add to o...

Hi, I want to view the code for the function confint in the stats package. Typing just confint doesn't work. How can I view the code? Thanks, Walt ________________________ Walter R.

To whom it may concern, I have a question referring to the calculation of variance estimation of the survey package I need to estimate the variance for different Domains but for a stratified sampling desing in several stages. Särndal et al (1992), CAP 10, makes reference to this problem. My question is if it is possible by means of "survey package" to obtain these

Hi All: I'm using win.metafile() to produce windows metafiles. When I use Word to insert the wmf picture, Word gives an error! I did my homework in posting this question, and couldn't find a fix. Any suggestions? Phil Smith CDC
