Abstract
Methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed for estimating panel attrition. An example apparatus includes at least one memory, machine readable instructions, and processor circuitry to execute the machine readable instructions to determine a beta distribution of a non-parametric survival curve estimate based on panel meter data associated with a cohort of panelists, determine confidence intervals for a set of beta distribution parameters associated with the survival curve estimate, and output a panelist attrition estimate generated based on the confidence intervals for the survival curve estimate, the panelist attrition estimate to represent panelist retention over time based on an installation date of the panel meter.
