Schools were selected with probability proportional to school enrolment size; 30 schools were selected to participate in the Macedonia GSHS.\nThe second-stage sampling was drawn from grades 7, 8, I year and II year in all schools that met the first-stage criteria. The sample consisted of randomly selected intact classrooms (using a random start) from each school to participate. In schools with a small number of students, the classes were consolidated into one single Primary Sampling Unit.

The survey relied upon the efforts of the coordinator, Scientific steering committee, Working group and administrators.\n\nThe Scientific steering committee was consisted of a coordinator, president, representatives of the Ministries of Health, Education and Agency for Youth and Sport. The Committee participated in the development of tools for the survey, the sampling strategy and the involvement of schools. The Working Group included representatives from the RIHP and Regional Institutes for Health Protection while the survey administrators recruited from the Republic Institute for Health Protection and 10 Regional Institutes for Health Protection were responsible for the collection of data and school documentation.\n\nSurvey procedures were designed to protect student privacy by allowing voluntary and\/or anonymous participation. The students completed the self-administered questionnaire during one classroom period and recorded their responses on a sheet that could be scanned by a computer. Survey administrators were specially trained to conduct the GSHS on a training workshop organized by RIHP and WHO office in Geneva.","weight":"The weighting formula used is:\nW=W1 * W2 * f1 * f2 * f3.\nThe list below shows what each variable in the formula represents.\nW1 - The inverse of the probability of selecting each school\nW2 - The inverse of the probability of selecting each classroom\nf1 - A school-level non response adjustment factor\nf2 - A student-level non response adjustment factor calculated by classroom\nf3 - A post stratification adjustment factor calculated by sex within grade","cleaning_operations":"All data processing (scanning, cleaning, editing, and weighting) was conducted at the US Centers for Disease Control."},"analysis_info":{"response_rate":"The school response rate was 100%, the student response rate was 93%, and the overall response rate was 93%."}},"data_access":{"dataset_use":{"cit_req":"Publications based on GSHS data should use the following acknowledgement:\n\"This paper uses data from the Global School-Based Student Health Survey (GSHS).
