The journal Survey Methodology established the Waksberg Award and an annual invited paper series in honor of the late Joseph Waksberg to recognize his outstanding contributions to survey statistics and methodology. Each year, a prominent survey statistician is chosen to author a paper that reviews the development and current state of an important topic in the survey statistics and methodology field, reflecting the mixture of theory and practice that characterized Joseph Waksberg’s work.
