Abstract

In the studies in literature up to date arithmetic population mean of auxiliary variable is used to obtain the proportional estimators. In this paper geometric mean, harmonic mean and quadratic mean is used as well as arithmetic population mean. Using geometric mean, harmonic mean and quadratic mean do not affect the variance of ratio estimator (). However new approaches are obtained for the estimation and variance of the dependent variable when these means are used as well as arithmetic population mean. In the application, the mean number of teaching staff of the departments in Ondokuz Mayıs University is estimated by auxiliary variable which is the number of students in the departments. In addition the variances of proportional estimation method are obtained and interpreted by using population arithmetic mean, geometric mean, harmonic and quadratic mean.
