In this book, two estimators of population total in stratified sampling under the single super-population model across the strata were developed and its properties and robustness were studied. It has been shown that both estimators remained robust and BLUE even under the model for stratified balanced and overbalanced samples. It has also been found that both estimators were more efficient than that of due to Scott et al. (1978 and Royall & Herson (1973b) under certain condition. The main tool in development of linear predictors in stratified sampling was the results of Pereira and Rodrigues...
