A note on Wilson coverage intervals for proportions estimated from complex samples - ARCHIVED

Articles and reports: 12-001-X201700254872

Description:

This note discusses the theoretical foundations for the extension of the Wilson two-sided coverage interval to an estimated proportion computed from complex survey data. The interval is shown to be asymptotically equivalent to an interval derived from a logistic transformation. A mildly better version is discussed, but users may prefer constructing a one-sided interval already in the literature.
