The tests in 1995 should serve as a prime source of information about the effectiveness and cost of alternative census design components. The authors concentrate on those aspects of census methodology that have the greatest impact on two chief objectives of census redesign: reducing differential undercount and controlling costs. Primary attention is given to processes for data collection, the quality of population coverage and public response, and the use of sampling and statistical estimation. 606 $aCensus undercounts$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$vCensus$xMethodology 607 $aUnited States$vCensus, 2000$xMethodology 615 0$aCensus undercounts 676 $a306/.0723 701 $aBradburn$b Norman M$0119048 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961793703321 996 $aA census that mirrors America$94479834 997 $aUNINA
