Sampling
The GSHS survey of Djibouti has used a two-level sampling to produce a representative sample of students in grades and ages.
The first stage of sampling included 13 schools with a probability of selection proportional to the number of students enrolled. 11 schools participated in the GSHS survey Djibouti.
The second stage of sampling consisted of randomly selecting intact classes (using the table of numbers to chance) for the participation of each school. All classes at each school selected entaient included in the sampling plan. All students in each sampled class are eligible to participate in the survey.
The school response rate was 85%, the student response rate was 98% and the overall response rate was 83%.
The weighting formula used is:
W=W1 W2 f1 f2 f3.
The list below shows what each variable in the formula represents.
W1 - The inverse of the probability of selecting each school
W2 - The inverse of the probability of selecting each classroom
f1 - A school-level non response adjustment factor
f2 - A student-level non response adjustment factor calculated by classroom
f3 - A post stratification adjustment factor calculated by sex within grade
