Abstract

In this study we deal with the estimation of the population ratio, when a Randomized Response (RR) procedure is used for collecting responses and Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is the selection method. The variances of the suggested estimators are calculated. Comparisons between different estimators are presented.
