N2  - This volume presents an all-inclusive guide to the problem of nonresponse in household surveys, providing an overview of the theory while also describing practical implications. The book begins with a general overview of the nonresponse problem, outlining existing sources of error and guidelines for calculating response rates according to various international standards. The theoretical content of survey sampling is also explored and presented in a chapter along with a discussion on nonresponse on survey estimates and missing data mechanisms. Subsequent chapters provide guidance on
