In 1965, Stanley Warner (Warner, 1965) introduced a model for contaminating discrete type random variables. He presented this scheme as being potentially useful in survevs where sensitive in-formation is being gathered. Since that time much research has been conducted and many papers written on the development of these discrete type randomized response models. More recently, atten-tion has been focused on the application of randomized response type models for preservation of confidentiality in existing data files (Boruch 1971 and 1972, Ranney 1975, Felligi 1974, and Inge-marsson 1975). In 1974, Poole (Poole, 1974) introduced a randomized response model for a positive continuous type random variable which was basically a continuous variable analog of the discrete variable Warner model. In this paper the results of the 1974 paper are extended to a lt-dimensional continuous type random variable in k-dimensional Euclidean space.
