Questionnaires

Questionnaires
The environmental questionnaire was designed in accordance with similar country experiments and according to international standards and recommendations for the most important indicators, taking into account the special situation of the Palestinian Territory.

Data Processing

Data Editing
The data processing stage consisted of the following operations:

Editing before data entry
All questionnaires were edited again in the office using the same instructions adopted for editing in the field

Data entry
Then data was entered into the computer, using Microsoft Access. The data entry program was prepared to satisfy a number of requirements such as:
Duplication of the questionnaire on the computer screen.
Logical and consistency check of data entered.
Possibility for internal editing of questions answered.
Maintaining a minimum of digital data entry and fieldwork errors.
User-friendly handling.
Possibility of transferring data into another format to be used and analyzed using other analytical statistical systems such as SAS and SPSS.

Data Appraisal

Estimates of Sampling Error
Two types of errors affect the quality of data, namely sampling and non sampling errors. Sampling errors are measurable and very limited in this report, because the study covered all Health care centers in the Palestinian Territory. The non-sampling errors could not be determined easily, due to the diversity of sources (e.g. the interviewers, respondents, editors, coders, date entry operators…etc). To minimize such errors, data was edited before and after the data entry process
