    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    A multi-stage cluster sample of households. One individual within the age range of the survey was selected per household. Please refer to page 7 of report for further information.
    Response Rate

    The response rate of households visited was 67.8%.
    Weighting

    Analysis weights reflect adjustments 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

    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. Additionally, some countries perform subsampling for Step 2. When no subsampling is done and response rates do not differ across Steps of the survey, the weight variables will be the same.
