Statistical Methods for Administrative Data

Second Edition

Provides a comprehensive overview of this important area of statistics

There is a growing interest in developing register-based statistics based upon already available data from administrative registers. The huge amounts of information generated within administrative systems offer the opportunity to use these data for statistical analysis without any of the costs otherwise involved in data collection.

Register-based Statistics offers readers a detailed account of the principles and practices of this increasingly important area of statistics.

The second edition has been extensively revised and updated, and includes practical examples of recent methodological work from different countries.

Register-based Statistics provides a unique guide for all those working in statistical agencies. It will also prove invaluable for academic researchers and teachers in statistics, and statisticians working with administrative systems in government institutions and enterprises.

This book provides a comprehensive and up to date treatment of theory and practical implementation in Register-based statistics. It begins by defining the area, before explaining how to structure such systems, as well as detailing alternative approaches. It explains how to create statistical registers, how to implement quality assurance, and the use of IT systems for register-based statistics. Further to this, clear details are given about the practicalities of implementing such statistical methods, such as protection of privacy and the coordination and coherence of such an undertaking.

This edition offers a full understanding of both the principles and practices of this increasingly popular area of statistics, and can be considered a first step to a more systematic way of working with register-statistical issues. This book addresses the growing global interest in the topic and employs a much broader, more international approach than the 1st edition. New chapters explore different kinds of register-based surveys, such as preconditions for register-based statistics and comparing sample survey and administrative data. Furthermore, the authors present discussions on register-based census, national accounts and the transition towards a register-based system as well as presenting new chapters on quality assessment of administrative sources and production process quality.
