Abstract
Second order or quadratic and finite population parametric functions may be expressed as total of variable-values on pairs of units in a derived population. Recently, Sitter and Wu (2002) utilized this approach for estimating variance under model calibration. In this paper an efficient design based full-information estimator of finite population variance has been suggested. The exact expression of its variance and its relative efficiency has also been derived. Finally, the proposed estimator has been shown to be superior to its competitors in an empirical investigation.
