[A measure to evaluate estimates from the population census].
"A measure of efficiency loss for the precision of estimates implied by sampling fractions reduction is described here....A study of the sampling fractions needed to guarantee a given precision level to estimate characteristics...is also performed.  An application of the methodology suggested is included.  The example is based on household characteristics investigated in [Brazil's]... Census of 1980, with estimates published at a county level and for the set of alternative sampling fractions for the 1990... Census." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
