Methodology Working Group

Notes from Thursday, October 23rd:

Are we really talking "methodology"?  Is it actually the design / process / result
Intended vs. achieved distinction
thinking you do ahead of time and the thing that you do and the combined result is the methodology

So in the weighting model (slide) "methodology" should be "design" and the whole thing is Methodology
Change "weight" to "X"


Questionnaire
Sampling - proposed as a design model
Weighting
Editing - rules established at design stage and are adjusted during the process 
Coding
Imputing
Estimating (modeling, point estimates of the population, analysis)
	as an aspect of weighting - estimating population parameters
	model creation (CPI - modeling market baskets and dealing with substitution)
	infering reality vs. measuring reality
Analysis plan (analytics)
Adjustments

Frame construction and management
	Selection of frame
	Adjust for bias in the frame


Many of these are processing but there is a design principal around them 
Distinction between design and implementation

**********
Design 
Implementation is the realization of the design
