Small area estimators of these quantities are derived from four multinomial logit mixed models, including a model with correlated time and area random effects. Mean-squared errors are used to measure the accuracy of the estimators proposed and they are estimated by analytic and bootstrap methods. The methodology introduced is applied to real data from the Spanish Labour Force Survey of Galicia.eng"This is the peer reviewed version of the following article: E. López-Vizcaíno, M.J.
