    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    -Used a stratified, two-stage cluster sampling method, with a third stage in very large sample census units (CU, enumeration areas selected within the sample CUs).

    -Produced 43 strata, 22 provinces by urban/rural (National Capital District has only urban areas).

    -Allocation was done proportionately according to size (in terms of the number of households).

    -Thus, 335 CUs / clusters were selected in the first- stage while a fixed number of 15 households per cluster were selected at the second stage resulting to a total sample size of 5,025 households.

    Deviations from the Sample Design

    Coverage: 95.8% (14 out of 335 clusters not accessed) due to security issues (tribal fights/lawlessness), and election related misconceptions.

    Survey instrument

    Questionnaires

    The questionnaire was generated using the World Bank's software Survey Solutions. It contains a set of 47 questions covering several modules such as Employment, Fertility, Housing, Disability, Education.
