Abstract/Description: | Area-level models are often used for small-area estimation when auxiliary data are available only as area aggregates. A popular area-level model used for small-area estimation is the Fay–Herriot model. In many small-area applications, the Fay– Herriot model is often fitted on a logarithm (log) scale and model parameters are estimated under this model. This is followed by back-transformation to obtain the estimates for small-area quantities in the original scale. However, back-transformation leads to biased estimates of small-area quantities. This article develops a bias-corrected predictor for small-area quantities under a log-transformed Fay–Herriot model. The empirical results-based simulation studies show that the bias-corrected small-area predictor has both smaller bias and better efficiency as compared to the existing small-area predictors. |
