panel_summary: Summary Characteristics of a Revisit Panel Design

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also Examples

Description

Revisit panel design characteristics are summarized: number of panels, number of time periods, total number of sample events for the revisit design, total number of sample events for each panel, total number of sample events for each time period and cumulative number of unique units sampled by time periods.

Usage

1
panel_summary(paneldsgn, visitdsgn = NULL)

Arguments

paneldsgn

Two-dimensional array with dimnames specifying revisit panel design. Typically, array is output from revisit_dsgn, revisit_bibd or revisit_rand functions.

visitdsgn

Two-dimensional array with same dimensions as paneldsgn specifying the number of times a sample unit is sampled at each time period. Default is visitdsgn=NULL, where default assumes that a sample unit will be sampled only once at each time period.

Details

The revisit panel design and the visit design (if present) are summarized. Summaries can be useful to know the effort required to complete the survey design. See the values returned for the summaries that are produced.

Value

List of six elements.
