Special Issue on Survey Statistics

2026-01-12

The Austrian Journal of Statistics publishes five to seven issues per year and is a journal

of the Austrian Statistical Society. Its general objective is to promote and extend the

use of statistical methods in all kinds of theoretical and applied disciplines. It is an

open-access journal without any fees and indexed in, e.g., Scopus., and increased its

impact 3.5-fold and the number of submissions tenfold in the last years.

An upcoming special issue of the journal will be devoted to survey statistics. Sub-

missions might range from theoretical considerations to actual applications of survey

statistical methods to investigate current societal challenges, for example in official

statistics. We especially welcome submissions that shed light on methods that jointly

use traditional data and so-called new data.

All submissions must contain original unpublished work not being considered for pub-

lication elsewhere. Up to 10 papers will be published in this special issue.

We cordially invite you to submit your manuscript to this special issue. Please see the

Guidelines for Authors located on the journal’s web page www.ajs.or.at for further

details. Authors are strongly encouraged to produce their papers using L A T EX.
