ANES Raking Implementation
Description
Provides a comprehensive system for selecting
variables and weighting data to match the specifications of the American
National Election Studies. The package includes methods for identifying
discrepant variables, raking data, and assessing the effects of the raking
algorithm. It also allows automated re-raking if target variables fall
outside identified bounds and allows greater user specification than other
available raking algorithms. A variety of simple weighted statistics that
were previously in this package (version .55 and earlier) have been moved to
the package 'weights.'
