Sampling
A multi-stage cluster sample of households. One individual within the age range of the survey was selected per household.
Overall response rate: 95%
Analysis weights were calculated by taking the inverse of the probability of selection of each participant. These weights were adjusted for differences in the age-sex composition of the sample population as compared to the target population.
Different weight variables are available per Step:
-
wStep1 - for interview data
-
wStep2 - for physical measures
-
wStep3 - for biochemical measures
This allows for differences in the weight calculation for each Step of the survey as the age-sex composition of the respondents to each Step can differ slightly due to refusal or drop out.
