Méthodes de rééchantillonnage en méthodologie d'enquête
The aim of this thesis is to study the bootstrap variance estimators of a statistic based on imputed survey data. Applying a bootstrap method designed for complete survey data (full response) in the presence of imputed values and treating them as true observations may lead to underestimation of the variance. In this context, Shao and Sitter (1996) introduced a bootstrap procedure in which the variable under study and the response status are bootstrapped together and bootstrap non-respondents are imputed using the imputation method applied on the original sample. The resulting bootstrap variance estimator is valid when the sampling fraction is small. In Chapter 1, we begin by doing a survey of the existing bootstrap methods for (complete and imputed) survey data and, for the first time in the literature, present them in a unified framework. In Chapter 2, we introduce a new bootstrap procedure to estimate the variance under the non-response model approach when the uniform non-response mechanism is assumed. Using only information about the response rate, unlike Shao and Sitter (1996) which requires the individual response status, the bootstrap response status is generated for each selected bootstrap sample leading to a valid bootstrap variance estimator even for non-negligible sampling fractions. In Chapter 3, we investigate pseudo-population bootstrap approaches and we consider a more general class of non-response mechanisms. We develop two pseudo-population bootstrap procedures to estimate the variance of an imputed estimator with respect to the non-response model and the imputation model approaches. These procedures are also valid even for non-negligible sampling fractions.
