TY - JOUR AU - Smith, T. M. F. AB - Broadly defined, post-stratification embraces most methods involving the rewieghting of survey results after selection. Narrowly defined, as in the sampling literature including this paper, it refers to a method for increasing precision. As such it is just one of a wide class of methods including ratio and regression estimation. Some practical problems, such as small sample sizes in post-strata, can be solved by following Bethlehem & Keller and treating post-stratification as an example of regression estimation. It is argued that inferences should be made conditional on the selection of post-strata, and problems are identified with this approach for complex sampling schemes.
