  • We introduce a new estimator of the uncertainty of a jackknife estimate of standard error: the jack-knife-after-jackknife (JAJ). Using Monte Carlo simulation, we assess the accuracy of the JAJ in a variety of settings defined by statistic of interest, data distribution, and sample size. For comparison, we also assess the accuracy of the jackknife-after-bootstrap (JAB) estimate of the uncertainty of a bootstrap standard error. We conclude that the JAJ provides a useful new supplement to Tukey's jackknife, and the combination of jackknife and JAJ provides a useful alternative to the combination of bootstrap and JAB.

  • In the presence of unit nonresponse we perform the calibration estimation procedure for the population total corresponding to the levels of auxiliary information and derive the Taylor and the Jackknife variance estimators of it. We study the nonresponse bias reduction and the variance stabilization, and then show the efficiency of the Taylor and the Jackknife variance estimators by simulation study.

  • Parametric estimation of truncated point in a truncated exponential distribution will be considered. The MLE, bias reducing estimator and the ordinary jackknife estimator of the truncated parameter will be compared by mean square errors. And the MME and MLE of mean parameter and estimations of the right tail probability in the distribution will be compared by their MSE's.

  • Variance estimation for the regression estimator for a two-phase sample is investigated. A replication variance estimator with number of replicates equal to or slightly larger than the size of the second-phase sample is developed. In these cases, the proposed method is asymptotically equivalent to the full jackknife, but uses smaller number of replications.

The MLE, a bias reduced estimator and the ordinary jackknife estimator of the truncated point in the right truncated Rayleigh distribution will be compared by mean square errors. And proposed estimators of the reliability in the right truncated Rayleigh distribution will be compared by their mean squared errors.

  • Jackknife variance estimation based on adjusted imputed values when nonresponse is nonrandom and follow-up data are available for a subsample of nonrespondents is provided. Both hot-deck and ratio imputation method are considered as imputation method. The performance of the proposed variance estimator under nonrandom response mechanism is investigated through numerical simulation.
