*IASS Webinar 4:*

*Multiple system estimation using covariates having missing values and
measurement error: *

*estimating the size of the Māori population in New Zealand*


*Professor Peter van der Heijden and Professor Paul Smith,*

*9th December, 2020*



All are invited to this webinar, organised by the International Association
of Survey Statisticians.

The abstract for the webinar presentation:


We investigate use of two or more linked registers, or lists, for both
population size estimation and to investigate the relationship between
variables appearing on all or only some registers. This relationship is
usually not fully known because some individuals appear in only some
registers, and some are not in any register. These two problems have been
solved simultaneously using the EM algorithm. We extend this approach to
estimate the size of the indigenous Māori population in New Zealand,
leading to several innovations: (1) the approach is extended to four
registers (including the population census), where the reporting of Māori
status differs between registers; (2) some individuals in one or more
registers have missing ethnicity, and we adapt the approach to handle this
additional missingness; (3) some registers cover subsets of the population
by design. We discuss under which assumptions such structural undercoverage
can be ignored and provide a general result; (4) we treat the Māori
indicator in each register as a variable measured with error, and embed a
latent class model in the multiple system estimation to estimate the
population size of a latent variable, interpreted as the true Māori status.
Finally, we discuss estimating the Māori population size from
administrative data only. (https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.00929)
