Response probability approach to missing survey data / R. Platek and G. B. Gray.: CS11-613/88-11E-PDF

"In surveys and censuses each selected unit may or may not respond. The probability that a particular unit responds may be regarded as dichotomous; i.e., 0 or 1 or more plausibly, it may respond with some probability between 0 and 1, with different probabilities pertaining to every unit. Unlike selection probabilities that are usually known in advance of the survey, response probabilities are not known for every individual unit. The various assumptions, including equal response probabilities are not known for every individual unit. The various assumptions, including equal response probabilities in cell, are reviewed from both theoretical and practical viewpoints along with the model and concepts pertaining to response probabilities"--Abstract.
