Estimation of Generalized Entropy and Atkinson inequality indices from complex survey data

Biewen, Martin; Jenkins, Stephen - 2003 - This version: 11 April 2003

Applying a method suggested by Woodruff (1971), we derive the sampling variances of Generalized Entropy and Atkinson inequality indices when estimated from complex survey data. It turns out that this method also greatly simplifies the calculations for the i.i.d. case when compared to previous...
