The Optimal Sample Size in Crosswise Model for Sensitive Questions

The problem is in the estimation of the fraction of population with a stigmatizing characteristic. In the paper the nonrandomized response model proposed by Tian, Yu, Tang, and Geng (2007) is considered. The exact confidence interval for this fraction is constructed.

Description
Summary:The problem is in the estimation of the fraction of population with a stigmatizing characteristic. In the paper the nonrandomized response model proposed by Tian, Yu, Tang, and Geng (2007) is considered. The exact confidence interval for this fraction is constructed. Also the optimal sample size for obtaining the confidence interval of a given length is derived.
