Abstract

The sample distribution is defined as the distribution of the sample measurements given the selected sample. Under informative sampling, this distribution may be different from the corresponding population distribution. Sampling on two occasions under informative sampling design, utilizing the sample distribution is proposed for predicting the population total of a variable under study for the current (second) occasion, viewing information collected on the first (previous) occasion as auxiliary information.
