In complex sample design it is difficult to estimate standard of statistic analytically. In some cases there is no neat formula for calculating standard error analytically. Although techniques for variance estimation and confidence intervals exist for complex survey data, they often are cumbersome to implement or do not extend to complex design. Various methods for variance estimation in complex survey data, where the sampling is done without replacement, have been developed so far. These methods include the customary linearization (or taylor) method and resampling method based on Jackknife...
