A multi-stage cluster sample of households. One individual within the age range of the survey was selected per household.
Overall response rate: 63%.
Sample weights are not available. The weight variables are simply adjustments for differences in the age-sex composition of the sample population as compared to the target population, by location.
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.
The questionnaire was published in English and contains 3 modules that are divided into 5 sections:
-Survey Information;
-Demographic Information;
-Behavioural Measurements;
-Physical Measurements;
-Biochemical Measurements.
