Nevertheless, he says, "Since probability samples have the advantage of eliminating bias at the selection step, it is useful to consider assembling auxiliary variables to compensate for nonresponse bias through the use of strong postsurvey adjustment models."<ref>http://poq.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/reprint/70/5/646.pdf</ref>
