The weights for a given households simply is the inverse of its inclusion probability. This yields the so-called expansion weight, which will expand the sample to the total population.  The weights used are the same for households, household members, women and children, since the sample design required that all such lower level units pertaining to a household were selected during enumeration.  To make the weighing procedure feasible and simple, we assumed that the households have been selected directly within the EA.","cleaning_operations":"Data editing took place at a number of stages through the processing including:\n\n1. office editing and coding\n2. during data entry\n3. structure checking and completeness\n4.The statistical package BLAIS was used in data entry","method_notes":"The statistical package BLAIS was used in data entry, which was organized in a number of files corresponding to the main parts of the questionnaire.\n\nA data entry template was designed to reflect an exact image of the questionnaire.
