    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    The 2015 Wallis and Futuna GSHS was a school-based survey of students in Classes 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Terminal, 1 CAP and T CAP, which are typically attended by students aged 13-17. A two-stage cluster sample design was used to produce data representative of all students in Classes 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Terminal, 1 CAP and T CAP in Wallis and Futuna. At the first stage, all schools were selected to participate. At the second stage, all classes were selected to participate and all
    students were eligible to participate.

    Response Rate

    The school response rate was 100%, the student response rate was 82%, and the overall response rate was 82%.

    Weighting

    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
