This dataset consists of three data folders including all related documents of the online survey conducted within the NESP 3.2.3 project (Tropical Water Quality Hub) and a survey format document representing how the survey was designed. Apart from participants’ demographic information, the survey consists of three sections: conjoint analysis, picture rating and open question. Correspondent outcome of these three sections are downloaded from Qualtrics website and used for three different data analysis processes.

Related data to the first section “conjoint analysis” is saved in the Conjoint analysis folder which contains two sub-folders. The first one includes a plan file of SAV. Format representing the design suggestion by SPSS orthogonal analysis for testing beauty factors and 9 photoshoped pictures used in the survey. The second (i.e. Final results) contains 1 SAV. file named “data1” which is the imported results of conjoint analysis section in SPSS, 1 SPS. file named “Syntax1” representing the code used to run conjoint analysis, 2 SAV. files as the output of conjoint analysis by SPSS, and 1 SPV file named “Final output” showing results of further data analysis by SPSS on the basis of utility and importance data.

Related data to the second section “Picture rating” is saved into Picture rating folder including two subfolders. One subfolder contains 2500 pictures of Great Barrier Reef used in the rating survey section. These pictures are organised by named and stored in two folders named as “Survey Part 1” and “Survey Part 2” which are correspondent with two parts of the rating survey sections. The other subfolder “Rating results” consist of one XLSX. file representing survey results downloaded from Qualtric website.

Finally, related data to the open question is saved in “Open question” folder. It contains one csv. file and one PDF. file recording participants’ answers to the open question as well as one PNG. file representing a screenshot of Leximancer analysis outcome.

Methods: This dataset resulted from the input and output of an online survey regarding how people assess the beauty of Great Barrier Reef. This survey was designed for multiple purposes including three main sections: (1) conjoint analysis (ranking 9 photoshopped pictures to determine the relative importance weights of beauty attributes), (2) picture rating (2500 pictures to be rated) and (3) open question on the factors that makes a picture of the Great Barrier Reef beautiful in participants’ opinion (determining beauty factors from tourist perspective). Pictures used in this survey were downloaded from public sources such as websites of the Tourism and Events Queensland and Tropical Tourism North Queensland as well as tourist sharing sources (i.e. Flickr). Flickr pictures were downloaded using the key words “Great Barrier Reef”. About 10,000 pictures were downloaded in August and September 2017. 2,500 pictures were then selected based on several research criteria: (1) underwater pictures of GBR, (2) without humans, (3) viewed from 1-2 metres from objects and (4) of high resolution.

The survey was created on Qualtrics website and launched on 4th October 2017 using Qualtrics survey service. Each participant rated 50 pictures randomly selected from the pool of 2500 survey pictures. 772 survey completions were recorded and 705 questionnaires were eligible for data analysis after filtering unqualified questionnaires. Conjoint analysis data was imported to IBM SPSS using SAV. format and the output was saved using SPV. format. Automatic aesthetic rating of 2500 Great Barrier Reef pictures –all these pictures are rated (1 – 10 scale) by at least 10 participants and this dataset was saved in a XLSX. file which is used to train and test an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based system recognising and assessing the beauty of natural scenes. Answers of the open-question were saved in a XLSX. file and a PDF. file to be employed for theme analysis by Leximancer software.

Format: The Online survey dataset includes one PDF file representing the survey format with all sections and questions. It also contains three subfolders, each has multiple files. The subfolder of Conjoint analysis contains an image of the 9 JPG. Pictures, 1 SAV. format file for the Orthoplan subroutine outcome and 5 outcome documents (i.e. 3 SAV. files, 1 SPS. file, 1 SPV. file). The subfolder of Picture rating contains a capture of the 2500 pictures used in the survey, 1 excel file for rating results. The subfolder of Open question includes 1 CSV. file, 1 PDF. file representing participants’ answers and one PNG. file for the analysis outcome.

Abstract

Environmental statistics relating to households are an important instrument for making decisions, planning, and drawing up strategies for the environment. Due to the lack of data on this subject in Palestine, PCBS is building and developing a database on the environment in the household sector.

This survey is based on a household sample survey conducted during the period from 24 March 2015 to 31 May 2015. It provides basic statistics on various aspects of the environment, including water, solid waste, wastewater, noise, and air pollution. A special questionnaire was designed in accordance with United Nations standards and recommendations in the field of environmental statistics and adapted to Palestinian conditions.

This survey presents data on various environmental household indicators in Palestine and on water consumption for the household sector by water source, methods of solid waste disposal and their main components, the disposal of wastewater, and the existence of cesspits and water wells, in addition to exposure to noise and air pollution by source and time.

This report is divided into three chapters: the first chapter defines the main findings of the report. The second chapter explains the methodology of data collection and tabulation, in addition to details regarding data quality and estimates of data sources. The third chapter contains the concepts and definitions used in this report

Geographic coverage

It consists of all Palestinian households who are staying normally in Palestine during 2015.

Analysis unit

Universe

It consists of all Palestinian households who are staying normally in Palestine during 2015.

Kind of data

Sampling procedure

Sample and Frame

The sampling frame was based on master sample which was update in 2013-2014 for (Expenditure and Consumption Survey (PECS) and Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS)) surveys, and the frame consists from enumeration areas. These enumeration areas are used as primary sampling units (PSUs) in the first stage of the sampling selection.

Sampling Design: Two stage stratified cluster sample as following: First stage: selection of a PPS random sample of 370 enumeration areas. Second stage: A systematic random sample of 20 households from each enumeration area selected in the first stage. Sample strata: The population was divided by: 1- Governorate 2- Locality type (urban, rural, camps)

Sample Size: The sample size is 7,690 households for Palestine level, 6,609 households responded.

Mode of data collection

Face-to-face [f2f]

Research instrument

The environmental questionnaire was designed in accordance with similar international experiences and with international standards and recommendations for the most important indicators, taking into account the special situation of Palestine.

Cleaning operations

The data processing stage consisted of the following operations: Editing and coding prior to data entry: all questionnaires were edited and coded in the office using the same instructions adopted for editing in the field.

Data entry: The household Environmental survey questionnaire was programmed and the data were entered into the computer in the offices in Nablus, Hebron, Ramallah and Gaza. At this stage, data were entered into the computer using a data entry template developed in Access. The data entry program was prepared to satisfy a number of requirements: To prevent the duplication of questionnaires during data entry. To apply checks on the integrity and consistency of entered data. To handle errors in a user friendly manner. The ability to transfer captured data to another format for data analysis using statistical analysis software such as SPSS.

Response rate

7,690 households had been reached as a representative sample to Palestine, where the number of completed questionnaires amounted to 6,609 questionnaires of which 4,536 questionnaires were in West Bank and 2,073 questionnaires in Gaza Strip. Weights were amended at the level of design strata to modify effects of refusals rates and non response.

Response rate = 100% - the percentage of non-response. And equal to = 89.5%

Sampling error estimates

The concept of data quality covers many aspects, starting from the initial planning of the survey to the dissemination of the results and how well users understand and use the data. There are seven dimensions of statistical quality: relevance, accuracy, timeliness and punctuality, accessibility and clarity, comparability, coherence and completeness.

Accuracy

This includes many aspects of the survey, mainly statistical errors due to the use of a sample, and also non-statistical errors from workers and survey tools. It also includes the response rates in this survey and their effect on the assumptions. This section includes:

Sampling Errors: Data of this survey may be affected by sampling errors due to use of a sample and not a complete enumeration. Therefore, certain differences are expected in comparison with the real values obtained through censuses. Variances were calculated for the most important indicators and the variance table is attached with the final report. There is no problem with the dissemination of results on national and regional level (North, Middle, South West Bank, Gaza Strip) or by locality type.

Non Sampling Errors: The non-sampling errors are possible to occur at all phases of implementing the project, through data collection and entry which could be summarized as non-response errors, and responding errors (respondents), and interview errors (fieldworkers) and data-entry errors. To avoid errors and reduce the impact, it had been made ??great efforts through extensive training of fieldworkers on how to conduct interviews, things that ought to be followed during an interview, things that should be avoided, making some practical and theoretical exercises during training session, in addition to providing them with a manual booklet for fieldworkers which contained a private key questions of questionnaire, mechanism to fill questionnaire and methods of dealing with respondents to reduce refusal rates and providing correct and non-biased data, Also data entry staff were trained on the data entry program, which was tested before starting the data entry process.

As for office work, they had been trained for a special auditing of questionnaires and error detection, which greatly reduced rates of errors during field work. In order to reduce the percentage of errors during data entry, the program was designed to enter data so as not to allow any mistakes during the process and contained many of logical terms. This process led to disclosure of most of errors that had not been found in earlier phases of the work, where they were correcting all the errors that had been discovered.

After the completion of the aforesaid audits, data consistency was examined by computer using frequency and cross tables as turned out to be quite consistent, Errors impact was not detectable on data quality. This in turn gave a good impression of those in charge of the survey that we could rely on this data and extract reliable statistical and high significant indicators on the reality of corruption in Palestine.

The data was obtained through a questionnaire survey. We distributed measurement questionnaires to 300 full-time employees in China and collected 258 valid questionnaires. For the collected data, we use Excel to input and analyze it in SPSS software. The data is all personal data, and the individuals providing the data are all Chinese citizens. The survey was conducted in the southeastern region of China from January 2023 to April 2023. The data consists of 258 rows, each representing the survey test results of one respondent. The data consists of 33 columns, with the first column representing the sample number, and each subsequent column representing the results of each question for the control and measurement variables.

Population and sampleTo find participants for the survey, this study drew from the 4,761 publicly listed members of the online group Awesome Assistants. As a result, the population was all young film/TV professionals, while the sample was the selected members of Awesome Assistants. On its Facebook page, Awesome Assistants allows film/TV professionals to post job openings and work-related questions. The author eliminated respondents younger than 18 or older than 35, and did not include moderators of Awesome Assistants. Members of the group work in the film/TV industry with either an assistant title or performing assistant duties, such as answering phones and running errands. The author randomly selected and contacted 500 individuals from this online group. The author also utilised two follow-up messages to improve the response rate.InstrumentationIn order to collect data from the sample, the author used the Career Decision Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (CDSES-SF).Data collection processTo distribute the survey to potential participants, the author sent a letter to the Awesome Assistants moderators to confirm their support. After, the author uploaded a message of informed consent and the survey to Qualtrics, then sent subjects a link to complete the study. Subjects received messages via Facebook Messenger, LinkedIn, or email, based on the contact information available. Once subjects completed the survey, a debriefing form invited them to enter a raffle for one of four $25 Amazon gift cards. After four weeks, the links expired. The author omitted surveys in which the subject did not answer at least one item from each subscale on the CDSES-SF. If respondents did not answer all items in a subscale, the author took the average of the completed questions. Additionally, the author eliminated subjects who fell outside of the target age range, as well as those who did not provide their age or number of contacts in the film/TV industry. Out of the 267 unique responses, the author analyzed 226 subjects as a result.Statistical Analysis ProceduresMuch like data collection, the author ensured that the statistical analysis process was legitimate and insightful. Next, the author entered data into IBM Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) Statistics 27 and determined what data should be coded as missing. Due to the assumption of linearity not being met by the data, the author used Spearman’s rho instead of a Pearson product-moment correlation. The author declared the results statistically significant if p < .05.

The study was approved by the Sichuan University Institutional Review Board. All participants read a statement that explained the purpose of the survey and written informed consents have been received before being involved in the investigation.This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Hezuo community, one of six sub-districts within a recently developed urban district in Chengdu, Sichuan from January to March in 2016. There were a total of 8884 older people (aged 60 and above) in this community as of December 2015. A sample of 670 older people was randomly drawn from the community older adult population using computer “random numbers” generator. MeasuresThe in-person interview questionnaire contains measures on socio-demographics, willingness to enter long-term care facilities, general wellbeing index, and social support. We collected the following information: age, gender, marital status, education, occupation, income (monthly household income per capita), insurance, living condition, being sick in the two weeks before the survey, number and type of chronic diseases, and any hospitalization in the prior year.The interviewer first defined long-term care facilities as institutions that integrate medical and social services in senior care facilities. Second, the interviewer asked whether the respondents are aware of the concept. For those who were not aware, explanations were made to inform them. Respondents were then asked: “Are you willing to enter into one of these facilities to receive integrated medical and social services in the future?” If the answer is “Yes”, additional questions were asked regarding: the most important aspect of choosing a long-term care facility, expectation of travel distance from one’s home to the facility, expectation of monthly costs of the services, expectations of the caregivers, medical staff, services, and quality provided, family support of such care arrangement. The WHO-5 items were used to describe the general wellbeing of the respondents about their rating of five statements considering the last 14 days.The Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) assesses the level of overall social support that each subject received. All survey data were entered into EpiData 3.0. Statistical analyses were carried out using the IBM SPSS version 21.0. We used Pearson’s χ2 to examine differences in categorical variables. Multivariate logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between the independent variables.

Abstract

The National Survey of Household Living Conditions 2004 was unanimously determined to be a multi-purpose survey, given the multiple objectives it serves. Dominant among those objectives was building a profound national study about poverty and deprivation based on two understandings: first,a definition of human poverty which accepts the Unsatisfied Basic Needs (UBN) approach, similar to the one adopted in 1998; and second, a grounding in the poverty line approach, which is calculated according to income and expenditure data with respect to international standards. This study will allow an assessment of the trends of living conditions and levels of deprivation during the past decade. As it is also a national study, it will also allow the computation of a national poverty line which can be used by macroeconomic policies and for international comparisons.

Sampling procedure

Sampling plan

The sampling plan was dual-phased; the sample of geographic islands was selected during phase I, and the primary residences sample from each primary sampling unit (PSU) was selected during phase II. The sampling base for phase I was the PSU prepared by the Central Administration for Statistics in 2004 to conduct a comprehensive survey of the buildings and institutions. The sample's units were selected via a Systematic Random Sampling, after the PSUs were organized to ensure the best possible geographic distribution, following specific sampling designs. A survey was then made of the buildings and units within the PSUs for selection of the primary residences. A drawing step equivalent to 7.5 was adopted in the densely populated areas and 5 in the less populated areas, determining the surveyed residences in each of the PSUs.

The sample covered primary residences distributed across Lebanese territory, with the exception of the Palestinian camps, regardless of the nationality of the residence's occupants. The actual sample size was 14,948 households designated to fill out the Household Living Conditions questionnaire. Out of this sample, a smaller sample was selected to fill out the other questionnaires pertaining to household expenditures.

The studies on household expenditures required year-long fieldwork,to include coverage of the households' varied seasonal expenditures. As such, this sample was divided into 27 intervals, each covering two weeks. A balanced distribution was maintained through: • Providing coverage of all Lebanese territory at any of the survey stages; and • Designing the length of the survey period to allow the emergence of seasonal changes in expenditures.

Mode of data collection

Face-to-face [f2f]

Research instrument

The study consists of four questionnaires: one on living conditions, and the other three pertaining to household expenditure.

a. Living conditions questionnaire: This questionnaire investigates the characteristics of individuals at the demographic, educational, economic, health and other levels. It also includes data pertaining to the household, such as the household's financial condition and its sources of income, the characteristics of the primary and secondary residences, expenditures associated with the residence, its surroundings and external disturbances, domestic services provided by others and transportation means.

b. Household expenditure questionnaires (1) Purchases questionnaire for previous periods: Includes data pertaining to the cost of services and purchases of specific goods for the household during the past 12 months prior to completing the questionnaire. (2) Expenditure diary 1: The household head, or any member of the household in charge of household purchases, recorded what was bought (both goods and services), what the household received for free, and what it had presented as gifts, (or what it received from its own production or work), for a period of 14 days, in addition to information regarding meals and their locations. This individual provides data on his/herself, and all household members aged below 15 years. (3) Individual questionnaire and expenditure diary 2: This series of questions was provided to all household members aged 15 years and above. Each individual was requested to write down everything purchased, received or presented as a gift (or what the individual had received from his/her own production or work) for a period of 14 days, in addition to information regarding meals and their locations. Moreover, this booklet included data on the financial status and income of the relevant individual.

Cleaning operations

Verification and coding The objective of verification and coding is to ensure that the field researcher has filled out the questionnaires according to instructions, to avoid errors. Each questionnaire was initially reviewed by the field supervisor,and was then checked and coded by the Central Administration for Statistics office teams in distinct phases:the initial checking and coding, coding of professions and economic activities according to international classifications, andchecking and final review before entering the questionnaires into the computer.

Entering data into computers, cleaning the data and generating the statistical tables An ORACLE computer program was set up to enter data, along with various specialized programs to check the data entered for errors, including data entry inaccuracies. Then the files were transferred to the SPSS(Statistical packages for Social Sciences) program to generate statistical tables - some of which appeared in the survey report available as external resources.

Response rate

Out of the sample, 13,003 households - consisting of 56,513 individuals - completed the data in the questionnaire. The response rate reached 87% of the households sampled. The questionnaires of the remaining 1,945 households were not filled out due to the households' refusal to respond, or their absence from the residences.

Sampling error estimates

All figures provided by this study are estimates,based on the selected sample. A "sampling error" should be taken into consideration, thus a 95% confidence interval was computed.

Overview

The Associated Press is sharing data from the COVID Impact Survey, which provides statistics about physical health, mental health, economic security and social dynamics related to the coronavirus pandemic in the United States.

Conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago for the Data Foundation, the probability-based survey provides estimates for the United States as a whole, as well as in 10 states (California, Colorado, Florida, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New York, Oregon and Texas) and eight metropolitan areas (Atlanta, Baltimore, Birmingham, Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, Phoenix and Pittsburgh).

The survey is designed to allow for an ongoing gauge of public perception, health and economic status to see what is shifting during the pandemic. When multiple sets of data are available, it will allow for the tracking of how issues ranging from COVID-19 symptoms to economic status change over time.

The survey is focused on three core areas of research:

• Physical Health: Symptoms related to COVID-19, relevant existing conditions and health insurance coverage.
• Economic and Financial Health: Employment, food security, and government cash assistance.
• Social and Mental Health: Communication with friends and family, anxiety and volunteerism. (Questions based on those used on the U.S. Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey.) ## Using this Data - IMPORTANT This is survey data and must be properly weighted during analysis: DO NOT REPORT THIS DATA AS RAW OR AGGREGATE NUMBERS!!

Instead, use our queries linked below or statistical software such as R or SPSS to weight the data.

Queries

If you'd like to create a table to see how people nationally or in your state or city feel about a topic in the survey, use the survey questionnaire and codebook to match a question (the variable label) to a variable name. For instance, "How often have you felt lonely in the past 7 days?" is variable "soc5c".

Nationally: Go to this query and enter soc5c as the variable. Hit the blue Run Query button in the upper right hand corner.

Local or State: To find figures for that response in a specific state, go to this query and type in a state name and soc5c as the variable, and then hit the blue Run Query button in the upper right hand corner.

The resulting sentence you could write out of these queries is: "People in some states are less likely to report loneliness than others. For example, 66% of Louisianans report feeling lonely on none of the last seven days, compared with 52% of Californians. Nationally, 60% of people said they hadn't felt lonely."

Margin of Error

The margin of error for the national and regional surveys is found in the attached methods statement. You will need the margin of error to determine if the comparisons are statistically significant. If the difference is:

• At least twice the margin of error, you can report there is a clear difference.
• At least as large as the margin of error, you can report there is a slight or apparent difference.
• Less than or equal to the margin of error, you can report that the respondents are divided or there is no difference. ## A Note on Timing Survey results will generally be posted under embargo on Tuesday evenings. The data is available for release at 1 p.m. ET Thursdays.

About the Data

The survey data will be provided under embargo in both comma-delimited and statistical formats.

Each set of survey data will be numbered and have the date the embargo lifts in front of it in the format of: 01_April_30_covid_impact_survey. The survey has been organized by the Data Foundation, a non-profit non-partisan think tank, and is sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis and the Packard Foundation. It is conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago, a non-partisan research organization. (NORC is not an abbreviation, it part of the organization's formal name.)

Data for the national estimates are collected using the AmeriSpeak Panel, NORC’s probability-based panel designed to be representative of the U.S. household population. Interviews are conducted with adults age 18 and over representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Panel members are randomly drawn from AmeriSpeak with a target of achieving 2,000 interviews in each survey. Invited panel members may complete the survey online or by telephone with an NORC telephone interviewer.

Once all the study data have been made final, an iterative raking process is used to adjust for any survey nonresponse as well as any noncoverage or under and oversampling resulting from the study specific sample design. Raking variables include age, gender, census division, race/ethnicity, education, and county groupings based on county level counts of the number of COVID-19 deaths. Demographic weighting variables were obtained from the 2020 Current Population Survey. The count of COVID-19 deaths by county was obtained from USA Facts. The weighted data reflect the U.S. population of adults age 18 and over.

Data for the regional estimates are collected using a multi-mode address-based (ABS) approach that allows residents of each area to complete the interview via web or with an NORC telephone interviewer. All sampled households are mailed a postcard inviting them to complete the survey either online using a unique PIN or via telephone by calling a toll-free number. Interviews are conducted with adults age 18 and over with a target of achieving 400 interviews in each region in each survey.Additional details on the survey methodology and the survey questionnaire are attached below or can be found at https://www.covid-impact.org.

Abstract

The Household Budget Survey 2010 provides a source of information for qualitative and quantitative indicators characterising living standards in Latvia. The main purpose of the data collection is to estimate the level and structure of consumption expenditure in the country as a whole as well as by type of locality (NUTS 2 level). The HBS data are used for the calculation of weights for a consumer price index and estimates of the private final consumption expenditure of the household sector in the National Accounts.

Geographic coverage

The survey sample covers whole territory of Latvia.

Analysis unit

• Households,
• Individuals.

Household is defined as a person or group of persons tied by relationship or other personal relations, having common subsistence expenditures and inhabiting the same living unit (house, flat, etc.), maintenance of which is covered by such persons jointly.

Universe

The sample represents private households in Latvia as well as their most typical groups. Collective households are not included in this survey.

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

Stratified two-stage random sample was used for the HBS in Latvia. Stratified systematic sampling with inclusion probabilities proportional to unit size was carried out at the first stage and simple random sampling was carried out at the second stage. The annual address sample is evenly distributed over time (the same number of addresses is sampled within each of the 52 weeks of the year) and space.

Two sampling frames are built for each sampling stage. At the first stage the counting areas of the Population and Housing Census are used as sampling frame. The list contains information on the number of addresses in each counting area. At the second stage the sampling frame is built from the statistical register of dwellings. The sampling frame provides information about resident population of the Republic of Latvia legally registered at the dwelling as well as its gender and age. Sampling frame is made on a quarterly basis.

Mode of data collection

Face-to-face [f2f]

Research instrument

Following types of principal survey forms and diaries have been developed for the collection of data: - Household Questionnaire - Household Diary - Pocket Individual Diary

Cleaning operations

Data processing is started with entering the Questionnaire and Diary data in computer. It is performed with the help of two data entry applications in ACCESS environment. Simultaneously with data entry the consumption expenditure data are coded according to COICOP/HBS at 8-digit level (for several groups at 9-digit level). This software allows systematic update of the consumption expenditure code dictionary with new types of goods and services or even their synonyms. Entry of Household questionnaire and Diary data is performed by the personnel specialising in entry of the particular information. Data verification methods at source data level are following: 1. Arithmetical correlations; 2. Logical correlations; 3. Verification of coherence between various sections of the questionnaire.

Along with the data entry simple data checking procedures are performed. During the data entry following verifications were performed: coherence among household member demographic characterisation variables, coherence among household member socio-economic characterisation variables (education, employment etc.), and coherence among elements characterising housing conditions. In the income part the verification of the income component minimum and maximum values was made. During the Diary data entry price intervals were controlled (minimum and maximum thresholds). This control is made with the help of data on sum paid for the goods purchased. In the ACCESS data entry programme code dictionary each good or service approximate minimum and maximum possible values in LVL are specified. Data entry operator verifies whether Diary record indicating the purchase value and amount meets the specified average price range.

When data are entered, verification of the sub-sections is carried out. Correlations in the mutually related sections of the Household Questionnaire and Household Diary are verified: 1. between utilities payments and housing characterisation; 2. among purchase of durable goods recorded in the Diary and analogous records on purchase of these goods during the last 12 months in tables 8 and 9 of the Questionnaire;

All discrepancies discovered are recorded in the error protocol.

Verification of errors When entry of the data is completed, further data verification procedures are continued in the ACCESS software: - Compliance of entered Questionnaire data and households included in the sample list. - Compliance between income, education and labour status. - Compliance between respondent age, socio-economic status and income. - Correlations between household demographic composition and State social transfers received. - Repeated verification of the price intervals.

In the following stage initial ACCESS file is converted into SPSS format file.

Response rate

Overall response rate for HBS 2010 comprised 43.1%

Data from: Doctoral dissertation; Preprint article entitled: Managers' and physicians’ perception of palm vein technology adoption in the healthcare industry. Formats of the files associated with dataset: CSV; SAV. SPSS setup files can be used to generate native SPSS file formats such as SPSS system files and SPSS portable files. SPSS setup files generally include the following SPSS sections: DATA LIST: Assigns the name, type, decimal specification (if any), and specifies the beginning and ending column locations for each variable in the data file. Users must replace the "physical-filename" with host computer-specific input file specifications. For example, users on Windows platforms should replace "physical-filename" with "C:\06512-0001-Data.txt" for the data file named "06512-0001-Data.txt" located on the root directory "C:". VARIABLE LABELS: Assigns descriptive labels to all variables. Variable labels and variable names may be identical for some variables. VALUE LABELS: Assigns descriptive labels to codes in the data file. Not all variables necessarily have assigned value labels. MISSING VALUES: Declares user-defined missing values. Not all variables in the data file necessarily have user-defined missing values. These values can be treated specially in data transformations, statistical calculations, and case selection. MISSING VALUE RECODE: Sets user-defined numeric missing values to missing as interpreted by the SPSS system. Only variables with user-defined missing values are included in the statements. ABSTRACT: The purpose of the article is to examine the factors that influence the adoption of palm vein technology by considering the healthcare managers’ and physicians’ perception, using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology theoretical foundation. A quantitative approach was used for this study through which an exploratory research design was utilized. A cross-sectional questionnaire was distributed to responders who were managers and physicians in the healthcare industry and who had previous experience with palm vein technology. The perceived factors tested for correlation with adoption were perceived usefulness, complexity, security, peer influence, and relative advantage. A Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient was used to test the correlation between the perceived factors and palm vein technology. The results showed that perceived usefulness, security, and peer influence are important factors for adoption. Study limitations included purposive sampling from a single industry (healthcare) and limited literature was available with regard to managers’ and physicians’ perception of palm vein technology adoption in the healthcare industry. Researchers could focus on an examination of the impact of mediating variables on palm vein technology adoption in future studies. The study offers managers insight into the important factors that need to be considered in adopting palm vein technology.

Abstract

The programme for the World Census of Agriculture 2000 is the eighth in the series for promoting a global approach to agricultural census taking. The first and second programmes were sponsored by the International Institute for Agriculture (IITA) in 1930 and 1940. Subsequent ones up to 1990 were promoted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations(FAO). FAO recommends that each country should conduct at least one agricultural census in each census programme decade and its programme for the World Census of Agriculture 2000 for instance corresponds to agricultural census to be undertaken during the decade 1996 to 2005. Many countries do not have sufficient resources for conducting an agricultural census. It therefore became an acceptable practice since 1960 to conduct agricultural census on sample basis for those countries lacking the resources required for a complete enumeration.

In Nigeria's case, a combination of complete enumeration and sample enumeration is adopted whereby the rural (peasant) holdings are covered on sample basis while the modern holdings are covered on complete enumeration. The project named “National Agricultural Sample Census” derives from this practice. Nigeria through the National Agricultural Sample Census (NASC) participated in the 1970's, 1980's, 1990's programmes of the World Census of Agriculture. Nigeria failed to conduct the Agricultural Census in 2003/2004 because of lack of funding. The NBS regular annual agriculture surveys since 1996 had been epileptic and many years of backlog of data set are still unprocessed. The baseline agricultural data is yet to be updated while the annual regular surveys suffered set back. There is an urgent need by the governments (Federal, State, LGA), sector agencies, FAO and other International Organizations to come together to undertake the agricultural census exercise which is long overdue. The conduct of 2006/2008 National Agricultural Sample Census Survey is now on course with the pilot exercise carried out in the third quarter of 2007.

The National Agricultural Sample Census (NASC) 2006/08 is imperative to the strengthening of the weak agricultural data in Nigeria. The project is phased into three sub-projects for ease of implementation; the Pilot Survey, Modern Agricultural Holding and the Main Census. It commenced in the third quarter of 2006 and to terminate in the first quarter of 2008. The pilot survey was implemented collaboratively by National Bureau of Statistics.

The main objective of the pilot survey was to test the adequacy of the survey instruments, equipments and administration of questionnaires, data processing arrangement and report writing. The pilot survey conducted in July 2007 covered the two NBS survey system-the National Integrated Survey of Households (NISH) and National Integrated Survey of Establishment (NISE). The survey instruments were designed to be applied using the two survey systems while the use of Geographic Positioning System (GPS) was introduced as additional new tool for implementing the project.

The Stakeholders workshop held at Kaduna on 21st-23rd May 2007 was one of the initial bench marks for the take off of the pilot survey. The pilot survey implementation started with the first level training (training of trainers) at the NBS headquarters between 13th - 15th June 2007. The second level training for all levels of field personnels was implemented at headquarters of the twelve (12) concerned states between 2nd - 6th July 2007. The field work of the pilot survey commenced on the 9th July and ended on the 13th of July 07. The IMPS and SPSS were the statistical packages used to develop the data entry programme.

Cleaning operations

The data processing and analysis plan involved five main stages: training of data processing staff; manual editing and coding; development of data entry programme; data entry and editing and tabulation. Census and Surveys Processing System (CSPro) software were used for data entry, Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and CSPro for editing and a combination of SPSS, Statistical Analysis Software (SAS) and EXCEL for table generation. The subject-matter specialists and computer personnel from the NBS and CBN implemented the data processing work. Tabulation Plans were equally developed by these officers for their areas and topics covered in the three-survey system used for the exercise. The data editing is in 2 phases namely manual editing before the data entry were done. This involved using editors at the various zones to manually edit and ensure consistency in the information on the questionnaire. The second editing is the computer editing, this is the cleaning of the already entered data. The completed questionnaires were collected and edited manually (a) Office editing and coding were done by the editor using visual control of the questionnaire before data entry (b) Cspro was used to design the data entry template provided as external resource (c) Ten operator plus two suppervissor and two progammer were used (d) Ten machines were used for data entry (e) After data entry data entry supervisor runs fequency on each section to see that all the questionnaire were enterd

Response rate

The response rate at EA level was 100 percent, while 98.44 percent was achieved at crop farming housing units level

The Quality Control measures were carried out during the survey, essentially to ensure quality of data. There were two levels of supervision involving the supervisors at the first level, NBS State Officers and Zonal Controllers at second level and finally the NBS Headquarters staff constituting the second level supervision.

Abstract

The Viet Nam Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) was carried by General Statistics Office of Viet Nam (GSO) in collaboration with Viet Nam Committee for Population, Family and Children (VCPFC). Financial and technical support by the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF).

In the World Summit for children held in New York in 1990, the Government of Vietnam committed itself to the implementation of the World Declaration and Plan of Action for children.

In implementation of directive 34/1999/CT-TTg on 27 December 1999 on promoting the implementation of the end-decade goals for children, reviewing the National Plan of Action for children, 1991-2000 and designing the National Plan of Action for children, 2001-2010, in the framework of the “Development of Social Indicators” project, the General Statistical Office (GSO) has chaired and coordinated with the Viet Nam Committee for the Protection and Care for Children (CPCC) to conduct the survey evaluating the end- decade goals for children, 1991-2000 (MICS). MICS has covered a sample size of 7628 households in 240 communes and wards representing the whole country, the urban area, the rural area and the 8 geographical areas in 61 towns/provinces. Field activities to collect data lasted 2 months, May- June/2000. The survey was technically supported by statisticians from EAPRO, UNICEF regional offices, UNICEF Hanoi on sample and questionnaire designing, data input software, not least the software analyzing and calculating the estimates generalizing the results of survey.

Survey Objectives: The end-decade survey on children is aimed at. · Providing up-to-date and reliable data to analyse the situation of children and women in 2000. · Providing data to assess the implementation of the World summit goals for children and of the National Plan of Action for Vietnamese Children, 1991-2000. · Serving as a basis (with baseline data and information) for development of the National Plan of Action for Children, 2001-2010. · Building professional capacity in monitoring, managing and evaluating all the goals of child protection, care and education at all levels.

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

The sample for the Viet Nam Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICSII) was designed to provide reliable estimates on a large number of indicators on the situation of children and women at the national level, for urban and rural areas, and for 8 regions: Red River Delta, North West, North East, North Central Coast, South Central Coast, Central Highlands, South East, and Mekong River Delta. Regions were identified as the main sampling domains and the sample was selected in two stages: At the first stage, 240 EAs are sellected. After a household listing was carried out within the selected enumeration areas, a systematic sample of 1/3 of households in each EA was drawn. The survey managed to visit all of 240 selected EAs during the fieldwork period. The sample was stratified by region and is not self-weighting. For reporting national level results, sample weights are used.

Sampling deviation

No major deviations from the original sample design were made. All sample enumeration areas were accessed and successfully interviewed with good response rates.

Mode of data collection

Face-to-face [f2f]

Research instrument

The questionnaires for MICS in Vietnam are based on the New York UNICEF module questionnaires with some modifications and additions to fit in with Vietnam's context and to evaluate the goals set out in the National Plan of Action. The questionnaires have been arranged in such a way as to prevent the loss of questionnaire sheets and to facilitate the logic control between the items in the modules. Questionnaires include 3 sections. Section 1: general questions to be administered to families and family members. Section 2: questions for child bearing-age women (aged 15-49). Section 3: for children under 5.

Section 1: Household questionnaire Part A: Household information panel Part B: Household listing form Part C: Education Part D: Child labour Part E: Maternal mortality Part F: Water and sanitation Part G: Salt iodization

Section 2: Questionnaire for child bearing-age women Part A: Child mortality Part B: Tetanus toxoid (TT) Part C: Maternal and newborn health Part D: Contraceptive use Part E: HIV/AIDS

Section 3: Questionnaire for children under five Part A:Birth registration and early learning Part B: Vitamin A Part C: Breastfeeding Part D: Care of illness Part E: Malaria Part F: Immunization Part G: Anthropometry

Apart from the questionnaires to collect information at family level, questionnaires are also designed to gather information at community level supplementary to some indicators that can not have data collected at family level. The information garnered includes local population, socio-economic and physical conditions, education, health and progress of projects/plans of actions for children.

Cleaning operations

To minimize the errors made by data entry staff members, all the records were double- entered by two different members. Any error detected between the two entries was re-checked to find out which one is wrong. Data cleaning started in to early September. This process was closely observed to ensure the accuracy, quality and practicality of all the data collected.

To minimize the errors due to wrong statements of respondents or wrong registration by interviewers, a cleaning programme was used to check the consistency and logic in the items of questionnaires and between the questionnaires. The cleaning programme printed out all the errors, then questionnaires were checked by qualified officials.

Response rate

8356 households were selected for the sample. Of these all were found to be occupied households and 8355 were successfully interviewed for a response rate of 100%. Within these households, 10063 eligible women aged 15-49 were identified for interview, of which 9473 were successfully interviewed (response rate 94.1%), and 2707 children aged 0-4 were identified for whom the mother or caretaker was successfully interviewed for 2680 children (response rate 99%).

Sampling error estimates

Estimates from a sample survey are affected by two types of errors: 1) non-sampling errors and 2) sampling errors. Non-sampling errors are the results of mistakes made in the implementation of data collection and data processing. Numerous efforts were made during implementation of the MICS - 3 to minimize this type of error, however, non-sampling errors are impossible to avoid and difficult to evaluate statistically.

Sampling errors can be evaluated statistically. The sample of respondents to the MICS - 3 is only one of many possible samples that could have been selected from the same population, using the same design and expected size. Each of these samples would yield results that different somewhat from the results of the actual sample selected. Sampling errors are a measure of the variability in the results of the survey between all possible samples, and, although, the degree of variability is not known exactly, it can be estimated from the survey results. The sampling errors are measured in terms of the standard error for a particular statistic (mean or percentage), which is the square root of the variance. Confidence intervals are calculated for each statistic within which the true value for the population can be assumed to fall. Plus or minus two standard errors of the statistic is used for key statistics presented in MICS, equivalent to a 95 percent confidence interval.

If the sample of respondents had been a simple random sample, it would have been possible to use straightforward formulae for calculating sampling errors. However, the MICS - 3 sample is the result of a two-stage stratified design, and consequently needs to use more complex formulae. The SPSS complex samples module has been used to calculate sampling errors for the MICS - 3. This module uses the Taylor linearization method of variance estimation for survey estimates that are means or proportions. This method is documented in the SPSS file CSDescriptives.pdf found under the Help, Algorithms options in SPSS.

Sampling errors have been calculated for a select set of statistics (all of which are proportions due to the limitations of the Taylor linearization method) for the national sample, urban and rural areas, and for each of the five regions. For each statistic, the estimate, its standard error, the coefficient of variation (or relative error -- the ratio between the standard error and the estimate), the design effect, and the square root design effect (DEFT -- the ratio between the standard error using the given sample design and the standard error that would result if a simple random sample had been used), as well as the 95 percent confidence intervals (+/-2 standard errors).

Data appraisal

A series of data quality tables and graphs are available to review the quality of the data and include the following:

Age distribution of the household population Age distribution of eligible women and interviewed women Age distribution of eligible children and children for whom the mother or caretaker was interviewed Age distribution of children under age 5 by 3 month groups Age and period ratios at boundaries of eligibility Percent of observations with missing information on selected variables Presence of mother in

Abstract

Tourism statistics is considered one of the traditional and important fields of official statistics. These statistics serve as an important input in the economic and market analysis of tourism sector in Palestine

Palestinian Territory is considered attractive area for tourists due to the presence of many religious and historical resorts for all nations. Tourism sector is considered one of the leading sectors in the Palestinian economy, which is supposed to have significant contribution to the GDP. Therefore, PCBS established a statistical programme to supervise and implement the production of reliable and timely statistics on the main indicators of tourism activity. This programme has started in 1995 through conducting the hotel survey in order to provide periodic data on accommodation statistics

PCBS is pleased to introduce this report on the domestic tourism survey 2006, as an additional component of tourism statistics programme beside the outbound and inbound tourism. The main objective of the domestic tourism survey is to provide basic information on domestic tourism in the Palestinian Territory

This report provides statistical data on domestic tourism, including the expenditure during the trip and tourist resorts, trips conducted by households, and the available facilities and services in the resorts visited by the Palestinian households in 2006

Statistical Errors Data of Domestic Tourism survey affected by statistical errors due to use the sample, Therefore, the emergence of certain differences from the real values expect obtained through surveys. It had been calculated variation of the most important indicators exists and the facility with the report. And the dissemination levels of the data were particularized at the regional level in the West Bank (North, Middle, South) and Gaza Strip, due to the sample design and the variance calculations for the different indicators

Non-Statistical Errors Non-statistical errors are probable in all stages of the project, during data collection or processing. This is referred to as non-response errors, response errors, interviewing errors, and data entry errors. To avoid errors and reduce their effects, great efforts were made to train the fieldworkers intensively. They were trained in how to carry out the interview, what to discuss and what to avoid, carrying out a pilot survey and practical and theoretical training during the training course

Also data entry staff was trained on the entry program that was examined before starting the data entry process. To have a fair idea about the situation and to limit obstacles, there was continuous contact with the fieldwork team through regular visits to the field and regular meetings with them during the different field visits. Problems faced by fieldworkers were discussed to clarify any issues

Social Influence on Shopping

Social Survey Data from 300,000 Millennials and Gen Z Members

By Adam Halper [source]

About this dataset

This dataset offers a comprehensive look into the shopping habits of millennials and Gen Z members, including valuable insights about how their choices are influenced by social media. By exploring the responses given to survey questions related to this topic, we can gain an understanding of how these generations' interests, beliefs and desires shape their decisions when it comes to retail experiences. With 150 million survey responses from our 300,000+ millennial and Gen Z participants, we can uncover powerful insights that could help influencers, businesses and marketers more accurately target this demographic. Our data includes important information such as questions asked during the survey, segment types targeted by those questions and corresponding answers gathered with detailed counts/percentages - making this dataset incredibly useful for anyone wanting an in-depth understanding of what drives the purchasing behavior of today's youth

How to use the dataset

The first step in using this dataset is to take a look at each column: Question, Segment Type, Segment Description, Answer, Count & Percentage. The Question column will provide background on what exactly each survey question was asking - allowing you to get an overall view of what kind of topics were being surveyed in relation to millennials' shopping habits & social media influence. You will then be able to follow up with analysis based on the respective Segment Types & Descriptions given (such as income levels), which leads us into analyzing answers from both Count & Percentage columns combined - providing absolute numbers vs relative ones for further analysis (such as percentages).

Afterwards you'll need an advanced data analysis program such as SPSS or R-Studio - depending on your technical ability - though all most basic spreadsheet programs should suffice, excluding Matlab supported ones due its excessive complexity for something simple like this.. After selecting your preferred program inputting our file with all 150 million survey responses may take some time based on your computers processing capabilities but once loaded you'll be ready for endless possibilities! Now it's time get running with pulling out key insights you require utilizing various different tools found within these platforms whether it be linear regression or guided ANOVA testing which ever technique fits best should help lead navigate through uncovering deeper meaning in your ultra specific question!

As a final precaution while diving through waters filled surprises also keep note any adjustments needed potentially due overfitting or multicollinearity otherwise could cause major issues skew end results unfit requiring start whole process anew! Good luck delving deep discovering millennial behavior related digital world!

Research Ideas

• Identifying which type of segment is most responsive to engaging shopping experiences, such as influencer marketing, social media discounts and campaigns, etc.
• Analyzing the answers given to survey questions in order to understand millennial and Gen Z's opinion about social influence on their shopping habits - what do they view positively or negatively?

ABSTRACT

The Albero study analyzes the personal transitions of a cohort of high school students at the end of their studies. The data consist of (a) the longitudinal social network of the students, before (n = 69) and after (n = 57) finishing their studies; and (b) the longitudinal study of the personal networks of each of the participants in the research. The two observations of the complete social network are presented in two matrices in Excel format. For each respondent, two square matrices of 45 alters of their personal networks are provided, also in Excel format. For each respondent, both psychological sense of community and frequency of commuting is provided in a SAV file (SPSS). The database allows the combined analysis of social networks and personal networks of the same set of individuals.

INTRODUCTION

Ecological transitions are key moments in the life of an individual that occur as a result of a change of role or context. This is the case, for example, of the completion of high school studies, when young people start their university studies or try to enter the labor market. These transitions are turning points that carry a risk or an opportunity (Seidman & French, 2004). That is why they have received special attention in research and psychological practice, both from a developmental point of view and in the situational analysis of stress or in the implementation of preventive strategies.

The data we present in this article describe the ecological transition of a group of young people from Alcala de Guadaira, a town located about 16 kilometers from Seville. Specifically, in the “Albero” study we monitored the transition of a cohort of secondary school students at the end of the last pre-university academic year. It is a turning point in which most of them began a metropolitan lifestyle, with more displacements to the capital and a slight decrease in identification with the place of residence (Maya-Jariego, Holgado & Lubbers, 2018).

Normative transitions, such as the completion of studies, affect a group of individuals simultaneously, so they can be analyzed both individually and collectively. From an individual point of view, each student stops attending the institute, which is replaced by new interaction contexts. Consequently, the structure and composition of their personal networks are transformed. From a collective point of view, the network of friendships of the cohort of high school students enters into a gradual process of disintegration and fragmentation into subgroups (Maya-Jariego, Lubbers & Molina, 2019).

These two levels, individual and collective, were evaluated in the “Albero” study. One of the peculiarities of this database is that we combine the analysis of a complete social network with a survey of personal networks in the same set of individuals, with a longitudinal design before and after finishing high school. This allows combining the study of the multiple contexts in which each individual participates, assessed through the analysis of a sample of personal networks (Maya-Jariego, 2018), with the in-depth analysis of a specific context (the relationships between a promotion of students in the institute), through the analysis of the complete network of interactions. This potentially allows us to examine the covariation of the social network with the individual differences in the structure of personal networks.

PARTICIPANTS

The social network and personal networks of the students of the last two years of high school of an institute of Alcala de Guadaira (Seville) were analyzed. The longitudinal follow-up covered approximately a year and a half. The first wave was composed of 31 men (44.9%) and 38 women (55.1%) who live in Alcala de Guadaira, and who mostly expect to live in Alcala (36.2%) or in Seville (37.7%) in the future. In the second wave, information was obtained from 27 men (47.4%) and 30 women (52.6%).

DATE STRUCTURE AND ARCHIVES FORMAT

The data is organized in two longitudinal observations, with information on the complete social network of the cohort of students of the last year, the personal networks of each individual and complementary information on the sense of community and frequency of metropolitan movements, among other variables.

Social network

The file “Red_Social_t1.xlsx” is a valued matrix of 69 actors that gathers the relations of knowledge and friendship between the cohort of students of the last year of high school in the first observation. The file “Red_Social_t2.xlsx” is a valued matrix of 57 actors obtained 17 months after the first observation.

The data is organized in two longitudinal observations, with information on the complete social network of the cohort of students of the last year, the personal networks of each individual and complementary information on the sense of community and frequency of metropolitan movements, among other variables.

In order to generate each complete social network, the list of 77 students enrolled in the last year of high school was passed to the respondents, asking that in each case they indicate the type of relationship, according to the following values: 1, “his/her name sounds familiar"; 2, "I know him/her"; 3, "we talk from time to time"; 4, "we have good relationship"; and 5, "we are friends." The two resulting complete networks are represented in Figure 2. In the second observation, it is a comparatively less dense network, reflecting the gradual disintegration process that the student group has initiated.

Personal networks

Also in this case the information is organized in two observations. The compressed file “Redes_Personales_t1.csv” includes 69 folders, corresponding to personal networks. Each folder includes a valued matrix of 45 alters in CSV format. Likewise, in each case a graphic representation of the network obtained with Visone (Brandes and Wagner, 2004) is included. Relationship values range from 0 (do not know each other) to 2 (know each other very well).

Second, the compressed file “Redes_Personales_t2.csv” includes 57 folders, with the information equivalent to each respondent referred to the second observation, that is, 17 months after the first interview. The structure of the data is the same as in the first observation.

Sense of community and metropolitan displacements

The SPSS file “Albero.sav” collects the survey data, together with some information-summary of the network data related to each respondent. The 69 rows correspond to the 69 individuals interviewed, and the 118 columns to the variables related to each of them in T1 and T2, according to the following list:

• Socio-economic data.

• Data on habitual residence.

• Information on intercity journeys.

• Identity and sense of community.

• Personal network indicators.

• Social network indicators.

DATA ACCESS

Social networks and personal networks are available in CSV format. This allows its use directly with UCINET, Visone, Pajek or Gephi, among others, and they can be exported as Excel or text format files, to be used with other programs.

The visual representation of the personal networks of the respondents in both waves is available in the following album of the Graphic Gallery of Personal Networks on Flickr: <https://www.flickr.com/photos/25906481@N07/albums/72157667029974755>.

CONCLUSION

The database of the “Albero” study allows us to explore the co-evolution of social networks and personal networks. In this way, we can examine the mutual dependence of individual trajectories and the structure of the relationships of the cohort of students as a whole. The complete social network corresponds to the same context of interaction: the secondary school. However, personal networks collect information from the different contexts in which the individual participates. The structural properties of personal networks may partly explain individual differences in the position of each student in the entire social network. In turn, the properties of the entire social network partly determine the structure of opportunities in which individual trajectories are displayed.

The longitudinal character and the combination of the personal networks of individuals with a common complete social network, make this database have unique characteristics. It may be of interest both for multi-level analysis and for the study of individual differences.

Abstract

The 2003 Agriculture Sample Census was designed to meet the data needs of a wide range of users down to district level including policy makers at local, regional and national levels, rural development agencies, funding institutions, researchers, NGOs, farmer organisations, etc. As a result the dataset is both more numerous in its sample and detailed in its scope compared to previous censuses and surveys. To date this is the most detailed Agricultural Census carried out in Africa.

The census was carried out in order to: · Identify structural changes if any, in the size of farm household holdings, crop and livestock production, farm input and implement use. It also seeks to determine if there are any improvements in rural infrastructure and in the level of agriculture household living conditions; · Provide benchmark data on productivity, production and agricultural practices in relation to policies and interventions promoted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security and other stake holders. · Establish baseline data for the measurement of the impact of high level objectives of the Agriculture Sector Development Programme (ASDP), National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP) and other rural development programs and projects. · Obtain benchmark data that will be used to address specific issues such as: food security, rural poverty, gender, agro-processing, marketing, service delivery, etc.

Census/enumeration data [cen]

Sampling procedure

The Mainland sample consisted of 3,221 villages. These villages were drawn from the National Master Sample (NMS) developed by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) to serve as a national framework for the conduct of household based surveys in the country. The National Master Sample was developed from the 2002 Population and Housing Census. The total Mainland sample was 48,315 agricultural households. In Zanzibar a total of 317 enumeration areas (EAs) were selected and 4,755 agriculture households were covered. Nationwide, all regions and districts were sampled with the exception of three urban districts (two from Mainland and one from Zanzibar).

In both Mainland and Zanzibar, a stratified two stage sample was used. The number of villages/EAs selected for the first stage was based on a probability proportional to the number of villages in each district. In the second stage, 15 households were selected from a list of farming households in each selected Village/EA, using systematic random sampling, with the village chairpersons assisting to locate the selected households.

Mode of data collection

Face-to-face [f2f]

Research instrument

The census covered agriculture in detail as well as many other aspects of rural development and was conducted using three different questionnaires: • Small scale questionnaire • Community level questionnaire • Large scale farm questionnaire

The small scale farm questionnaire was the main census instrument and it includes questions related to crop and livestock production and practices; population demographics; access to services, resources and infrastructure; and issues on poverty, gender and subsistence versus profit making production unit.

The community level questionnaire was designed to collect village level data such as access and use of common resources, community tree plantation and seasonal farm gate prices.

The large scale farm questionnaire was administered to large farms either privately or corporately managed.

Questionnaire Design The questionnaires were designed following user meetings to ensure that the questions asked were in line with users data needs. Several features were incorporated into the design of the questionnaires to increase the accuracy of the data: • Where feasible all variables were extensively coded to reduce post enumeration coding error. • The definitions for each section were printed on the opposite page so that the enumerator could easily refer to the instructions whilst interviewing the farmer. • The responses to all questions were placed in boxes printed on the questionnaire, with one box per character. This feature made it possible to use scanning and Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) technologies for data entry. • Skip patterns were used to reduce unnecessary and incorrect coding of sections which do not apply to the respondent. • Each section was clearly numbered, which facilitated the use of skip patterns and provided a reference for data type coding for the programming of CSPro, SPSS and the dissemination applications.

Cleaning operations

Data processing consisted of the following processes: · Data entry · Data structure formatting · Batch validation · Tabulation

Data Entry Scanning and ICR data capture technology for the small holder questionnaire were used on the Mainland. This not only increased the speed of data entry, it also increased the accuracy due to the reduction of keystroke errors. Interactive validation routines were incorporated into the ICR software to track errors during the verification process. The scanning operation was so successful that it is highly recommended for adoption in future censuses/surveys. In Zanzibar all data was entered manually using CSPro.

Prior to scanning, all questionnaires underwent a manual cleaning exercise. This involved checking that the questionnaire had a full set of pages, correct identification and good handwriting. A score was given to each questionnaire based on the legibility and the completeness of enumeration. This score will be used to assess the quality of enumeration and supervision in order to select the best field staff for future censuses/surveys.

CSPro was used for data entry of all Large Scale Farm and community based questionnaires due to the relatively small number of questionnaires. It was also used to enter data from the 2,880 small holder questionnaires that were rejected by the ICR extraction application.

Data Structure Formatting A program was developed in visual basic to automatically alter the structure of the output from the scanning/extraction process in order to harmonise it with the manually entered data. The program automatically checked and changed the number of digits for each variable, the record type code, the number of questionnaires in the village, the consistency of the Village ID Code and saved the data of one village in a file named after the village code.

Batch Validation A batch validation program was developed in order to identify inconsistencies within a questionnaire. This is in addition to the interactive validation during the ICR extraction process. The procedures varied from simple range checking within each variable to the more complex checking between variables. It took six months to screen, edit and validate the data from the smallholder questionnaires. After the long process of data cleaning, tabulations were prepared based on a pre-designed tabulation plan.

Tabulations Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to produce the Census tabulations and Microsoft Excel was used to organize the tables and compute additional indicators. Excel was also used to produce charts while ArcView and Freehand were used for the maps.

Analysis and Report Preparation The analysis in this report focuses on regional comparisons, time series and national production estimates. Microsoft Excel was used to produce charts; ArcView and Freehand were used for maps, whereas Microsoft Word was used to compile the report.

Data Quality A great deal of emphasis was placed on data quality throughout the whole exercise from planning, questionnaire design, training, supervision, data entry, validation and cleaning/editing. As a result of this, it is believed that the census is highly accurate and representative of what was experienced at field level during the Census year. With very few exceptions, the variables in the questionnaire are within the norms for Tanzania and they follow expected time series trends when compared to historical data. Standard Errors and Coefficients of Variation for the main variables are presented in the Technical Report (Volume I).
