More tests for survey data

This technical article delves into the Rao-Scott tests used in design-based analysis of survey data, particularly for contingency tables and regression models. It explains their advantages over Wald-type tests in small samples due to variance matrix estimation issues and Satterthwaite approximations. The piece also announces new "Satterthwaite Adjusted Wald Tests" added to version 3.33 of the R survey package, discussing their asymptotic equivalence and expected performance.
