Abstract

For the estimation of finite population variance a generalized double sampling estimator is proposed. The bias and mean square error (MSE) of the proposed estimator are found. Theoretical comparison with the traditional estimator is carried out and it is shown that the proposed estimator is more efficient than the traditional one.
