Hi dear R-helpers,

Happy new year. I have estimated Gini index variance in the case of  complex 
survey (stratify and with two stage sampling). I use the survey package. I use 
replication (bootstrap, and Jacknife) and linearisation according to Binder 
(1993) article




David A. Binder and Milorad
Kovaˇcevi´c(1993), « Estimating some measures of income inequality from 
survey


data : An application of
estimating equation approach », Proceedings
of the ASA Survey Research Methods,


550-555.



But I found different results. According to my experience, result of 
linearisation are more accurate. Is it an explanation to this ? Is bootstrap 
appropriate for all situations or there are drawback? 

Sincerly.
