Ranks in survey data

Read Original

The article discusses a statistical problem involving signed rank tests for complex sample survey data. It explains why a naive sample-based rank transformation is invalid, as it depends on the sampling design, and proposes using the estimated population cumulative distribution function (CDF) to define ranks that are design-independent. The content includes R code examples using the 'survey' package to illustrate the issue and the proposed solution.
