Demographic and Health Survey (standard) - DHS II
The Malawi Demographic and Health Survey 1992 is the first survey of its kind to be conducted in Malawi.
Malawi
National
The population covered by the 1992 MDHS is defined as the universe of all women age 15-49 in malawi and all men age 20-54 living in the household.
Sample survey data
National Statistical Office (NSO)
Face-to-face
Four types of questionnaires were used: the Household Questionnaire, the Individual Female Questionnaire, the Individual Male Questionnaire, and the Health Services Availability Questionnaire. The contents of these questionnaires were based on the DHS Model B Questionnaire, which is designed for use in countries with a low level of contraceptive use. Modification of the questionnaires was undertaken by NSO in consultation with the Ministry of Health and Macro. The questionnaires were pretested in April 1992.
Thus the MDHS sample is not self-weighting at the national level, but it is self-weighting within each of the six region/urban-rural strata.
Completed questionnaires were retumed to NSO for data processing. The processing operation consisted of office editing, coding of open-ended questions, data entry and editing of errors found by the computer programs. Data entry, editing, and analysis were accomplished on personal computers, using a software program called ISSA (Integrated System for Survey Analysis). Data processing started on 14 September 1992 and was completed on 21 January 1993.
Nonsampling error is the result of mistakes made in implementing data collection and data processing procedures, such as failure to locate and interview the correct household, errors in the way the questions are asked, misunderstanding on the part of either the interviewer or the respondent, data entry errors, etc. Although numerous efforts were made during the design and implementation of the MDHS to minimise this type of error, nonsampling errors are impossible to avoid and difficult to evaluate statistically.
