Population pyramids provide a way to visualize the age and sex composition of a geographic region, such as a nation, state, or county. A standard population pyramid divides sex into two bar charts or histograms, one for the male population and one for the female population. The two charts mirror each other and are divide age into 5-year cohorts. The shape of a population pyramid provides insights into a region’s fertility, mortality, and migration patterns. When a region has high fertility and mortality, but low migration the visualization will look like a pyramid, with the youngest age cohort (0-4 years) representing the largest percent of the population and each older cohort representing a progressively smaller percent of the population.

In many regions fertility and mortality have decreased significantly since 1970, as people live longer and women have fewer children. With lower fertility and mortality, population pyramids are shaped more like a pillar.

While population pyramids can be made for any geographic region, when interpreting population pyramids for smaller areas (like counties) the most important force that shapes the pyramid is often in- and out-migration (Wang and vom Hofe, 2006, p. 65). For smaller regions, population pyramids can have unique shapes.

This data archive provides the resources needed to generate population pyramids for the United States, individual states, and any county within the United States. Population pyramids usually require significant data cleaning and graph making skills to generate one pyramid. With this data archive the data cleaning has been completed and the R script provides reusable code to quickly generate graphs. The final output is an image file with six graphs on one page. The final layout makes it easy to compare changes in population age and sex composition for any state and any county in the US for 1970, 1980, 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2017.

Abstract

The main objectives of the 2010 Census of Population and Housing were: • To provide accurate and reliable information on the size, composition and distribution of the population of Zambia at the time of the census; • To provide information on the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of the population of Zambia at the lowest administrative level - the ward; • To provide indicators for measuring progress towards national and international development goals in a timely and user friendly manner; • To provide information on the number and characteristics of households engaged in agriculture and other economic activities; • To provide an accurate sampling frame and sample weights for future inter-censal household and population based surveys; • To provide information identifying the number of eligible voters for the 2011 General Elections; • To provide a census that meets national and international standards and allows for comparability with other censuses; • To provide information on the housing characteristics of the population.

Universe

Census Enumerators went out visiting all buildings in Zambia whether completed, incomplete, abandoned, habitable and inhabitable for the purpose of identifying characteristics of all buildings, households and other human aspects. All persons who lived in the buildings were counted and detailed information pertaining to their characteristics obtained.

Sampling procedure

The Census mapping methodology in 2010 was Geographic Information System (GIS) driven with the use of Satellite Imagery in urban areas and Global Positioning System (GPS) in rural areas.

Mode of data collection

Face-to-face [f2f]

Research instrument

The 2010 Census used a single questionnaire to capture individual, household and housing characteristics from the population. The 2010 Census differs from the 2000 Census by including questions on deaths of Household Members during the 12 months period prior to the census enumeration, as well as cause of death for all reported deaths.

Included for the first time were questions on maternal deaths to women aged 12-49 years during the reference period (12 months prior to the Census). Questions were asked of female household members aged 12-49 years that were reported to have died during the reference period (12 months prior to the census), whether the death had occurred while the woman was pregnant, during childbirth or six weeks after the end of a pregnancy, regardless of the outcome of the pregnancy. Another new addition was the question on whether one was an Albino or not.

Cleaning operations

In April 2011, the Central Statistical Office started the data capture and processing of the 2010 Census questionnaires. Scanning of the 2010 Census questionnaires started in April 2011 and was successfully concluded in August 2011. The data capture used Optical Mark Reading (OMR) and Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) technology in order to speed up the processing time. Data verification and development of edit and imputation specifications and programmes started in May and was completed in November 2011.

Data appraisal

Methods of evaluation applied were:

• Direct Method: Post Enumeration Survey (PES)- a sample of households is revisited after the census and data are again collected but on a smaller scale and later compared with that collected during the actual census. • Indirect Method: Comparison of data using both internal and external consistency checks. Internal consistency checks compare relationships of data within the same census data, whereas external consistency checks compare census data with data generated from other sources.

Coverage errors: • Omission or duplication of individuals, households, or housing units resulting in under or over enumeration. • Lack of accessibility or cooperation with respondents. • Lack of proper boundary descriptions on maps. Coverage errors can be measured by examining certain statistics such as growth rate, age composition, child woman ratio and dependency ratio.

Content errors: Content errors refer to instances where characteristics such as age, sex, marital status, economic activity, etc. of a person enumerated in a census or survey are incorrectly reported or tabulated. • Content errors are caused by either a respondent giving a wrong response or by an enumerator recording an incorrect response. • 2010 census errors were estimated by the use of the Myers' Index, Sex Ratios, Age Ratios and Population Pyramids.

For findings, please refer to the presentation on census data evaluation provided as external resources.

Abstract

The 2022 Philippines National Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) was implemented by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA). Data collection took place from May 2 to June 22, 2022.

The primary objective of the 2022 NDHS is to provide up-to-date estimates of basic demographic and health indicators. Specifically, the NDHS collected information on fertility, fertility preferences, family planning practices, childhood mortality, maternal and child health, nutrition, knowledge and attitudes regarding HIV/AIDS, violence against women, child discipline, early childhood development, and other health issues.

The information collected through the NDHS is intended to assist policymakers and program managers in designing and evaluating programs and strategies for improving the health of the country’s population. The 2022 NDHS also provides indicators anchored to the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the new Philippine Development Plan for 2023 to 2028.

Geographic coverage

National coverage

Analysis unit

• Household
• Individual
• Children age 0-5
• Woman age 15-49

Universe

The survey covered all de jure household members (usual residents), all women aged 15-49, and all children aged 0-4 resident in the household.

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

The sampling scheme provides data representative of the country as a whole, for urban and rural areas separately, and for each of the country’s administrative regions. The sample selection methodology for the 2022 NDHS was based on a two-stage stratified sample design using the Master Sample Frame (MSF) designed and compiled by the PSA. The MSF was constructed based on the listing of households from the 2010 Census of Population and Housing and updated based on the listing of households from the 2015 Census of Population. The first stage involved a systematic selection of 1,247 primary sampling units (PSUs) distributed by province or HUC. A PSU can be a barangay, a portion of a large barangay, or two or more adjacent small barangays.

In the second stage, an equal take of either 22 or 29 sample housing units were selected from each sampled PSU using systematic random sampling. In situations where a housing unit contained one to three households, all households were interviewed. In the rare situation where a housing unit contained more than three households, no more than three households were interviewed. The survey interviewers were instructed to interview only the preselected housing units. No replacements and no changes of the preselected housing units were allowed in the implementing stage in order to prevent bias. Survey weights were calculated, added to the data file, and applied so that weighted results are representative estimates of indicators at the regional and national levels.

All women age 15–49 who were either usual residents of the selected households or visitors who stayed in the households the night before the survey were eligible to be interviewed. Among women eligible for an individual interview, one woman per household was selected for a module on women’s safety.

For further details on sample design, see APPENDIX A of the final report.

Mode of data collection

Computer Assisted Personal Interview [capi]

Research instrument

Two questionnaires were used for the 2022 NDHS: the Household Questionnaire and the Woman’s Questionnaire. The questionnaires, based on The DHS Program’s model questionnaires, were adapted to reflect the population and health issues relevant to the Philippines. Input was solicited from various stakeholders representing government agencies, academe, and international agencies. The survey protocol was reviewed by the ICF Institutional Review Board.

After all questionnaires were finalized in English, they were translated into six major languages: Tagalog, Cebuano, Ilocano, Bikol, Hiligaynon, and Waray. The Household and Woman’s Questionnaires were programmed into tablet computers to allow for computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) for data collection purposes, with the capability to choose any of the languages for each questionnaire.

Cleaning operations

Processing the 2022 NDHS data began almost as soon as fieldwork started, and data security procedures were in place in accordance with confidentiality of information as provided by Philippine laws. As data collection was completed in each PSU or cluster, all electronic data files were transferred securely via SyncCloud to a server maintained by the PSA Central Office in Quezon City. These data files were registered and checked for inconsistencies, incompleteness, and outliers. The field teams were alerted to any inconsistencies and errors while still in the area of assignment. Timely generation of field check tables allowed for effective monitoring of fieldwork, including tracking questionnaire completion rates. Only the field teams, project managers, and NDHS supervisors in the provincial, regional, and central offices were given access to the CAPI system and the SyncCloud server.

A team of secondary editors in the PSA Central Office carried out secondary editing, which involved resolving inconsistencies and recoding “other” responses; the former was conducted during data collection, and the latter was conducted following the completion of the fieldwork. Data editing was performed using the CSPro software package. The secondary editing of the data was completed in August 2022. The final cleaning of the data set was carried out by data processing specialists from The DHS Program in September 2022.

Response rate

A total of 35,470 households were selected for the 2022 NDHS sample, of which 30,621 were found to be occupied. Of the occupied households, 30,372 were successfully interviewed, yielding a response rate of 99%. In the interviewed households, 28,379 women age 15–49 were identified as eligible for individual interviews. Interviews were completed with 27,821 women, yielding a response rate of 98%.

Sampling error estimates

The estimates from a sample survey are affected by two types of errors: (1) nonsampling errors and (2) sampling errors. Nonsampling errors are the results of mistakes made in implementing data collection and in data processing, such as failure to locate and interview the correct household, misunderstanding of the questions on the part of either the interviewer or the respondent, and data entry errors. Although numerous efforts were made during the implementation of the 2022 Philippines National Demographic and Health Survey (2022 NDHS) to minimize this type of error, nonsampling errors are impossible to avoid and difficult to evaluate statistically.

Sampling errors, on the other hand, can be evaluated statistically. The sample of respondents selected in the 2022 NDHS is only one of many samples that could have been selected from the same population, using the same design and identical size. Each of these samples would yield results that differ somewhat from the results of the actual sample selected. Sampling errors are a measure of the variability between all possible samples. Although the degree of variability is not known exactly, it can be estimated from the survey results.

A sampling error is usually measured in terms of the standard error for a particular statistic (mean, percentage, etc.), which is the square root of the variance. The standard error can be used to calculate confidence intervals within which the true value for the population can reasonably be assumed to fall. For example, for any given statistic calculated from a sample survey, the value of that statistic will fall within a range of plus or minus two times the standard error of that statistic in 95% of all possible samples of identical size and design.

If the sample of respondents had been selected as a simple random sample, it would have been possible to use straightforward formulas for calculating sampling errors. However, the 2022 NDHS sample was the result of a multistage stratified design, and, consequently, it was necessary to use more complex formulas. Sampling errors are computed in SAS using programs developed by ICF. These programs use the Taylor linearization method to estimate variances for survey estimates that are means, proportions, or ratios. The Jackknife repeated replication method is used for variance estimation of more complex statistics such as fertility and mortality rates.

A more detailed description of estimates of sampling errors are presented in APPENDIX B of the survey report.
