When the issue is about a stigmatizing characteristic (for example about illegal drug use), standard survey methodologies are destined to fail because, as expected, people are not willing to reveal incriminating information or information violating their privacy.  Indirect questioning techniques have been devised so that the privacy of participants in a sample survey is protected and at the same time good estimates of certain parameters (e.g. the percentage of people in a certain community who use illegal drugs) can be delivered. The topic is modern and still under development. Indirect Questioning in Sample Surveys represents a collection of the most important and recent techniques of indirect questioning, including various versions of randomized response, the item count technique, the nominative technique, the three-card method, non-randomized response models and negative surveys, while also exploring the key aspect of protecting privacy. 606 $aSocial sciences$xStatistical methods 606 $aBiometry 606 $aStatistics 606 $aSociology$xMethodology 606 $aMathematics 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aStatistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public Policy 606 $aBiostatistics 606 $aStatistical Theory and Methods 606 $aSociological Methods 606 $aMathematics in the Humanities and Social Sciences 615 0$aSocial sciences$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aBiometry. 615 0$aStatistics. 615 0$aSociology$xMethodology. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 14$aStatistics in Social Sciences, Humanities, Law, Education, Behavorial Sciences, Public Policy. 615 24$aBiostatistics. 615 24$aStatistical Theory and Methods. 615 24$aSociological Methods. 615 24$aMathematics in the Humanities and Social Sciences. 676 $a001.433 700 $aChaudhuri$b Arijit$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0102935 702 $aChristofides$b Tasos C.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910734098603321 996 $aIndirect questioning in sample surveys$93400456 997 $aUNINA
