This work proposes a general class of estimators for the population total of a sensitive variable using auxiliary information. Under a general randomized response model, the optimal estimator in this class is derived. Design‐based properties of proposed estimators are obtained. A simulation study reflects the potential gains from the use of the proposed estimators instead of the customary estimators.
