Abstract

According to Efron and Tibshirani (1993), the traditional road to statistical knowledge is blocked, for most, by a formidable wall of mathematics. The usefulness of the bootstrap method is particularly appreciable when dealing with complex estimators or non-smooth statistics. Our work is intended to find out if bootstrap methods other than the standard bootstrap can be satisfactory used to break a “thicker wall”: the dependence in data structure. In this paper we present some variants of existing bootstrap methods for complex surveys and nested multilevel models.
