The sampling frame is the list of housing units prepared for the Census of Population and Housing (CPH) 2011. \n\nSelection of Primary Sampling Units \nPrimary sampling units (PSUs) are the census blocks selected for the survey. The sampling frame, which is the collection of all the census blocks prepared in CPH 2011 in Sri Lanka, is used for the selection of the PSUs at the first stage of the selection. \nThe PSU selection is done within all the independent- selection domains that are assigned different sample size allocations to total the targeted sample size of 2,500 PSUs. The method of selection of the PSUs at the first stage is systematic with a selection probability given to each census block proportionate to the number of housing units available in the census blocks within the selection domains (PPS). \nThe selected PSUs are updated to include newly built housing units and to exclude demolished or vacated housing units, which are no longer considered as housing units according to the survey definitions, to capture variation of natural growth and to make necessary adjustments for the same. The PSU updating operation in field is generally done less than one month prior to the survey and it was carried out for the 12 months starting from October 2015 to September 2016 to support the scheduled 12 survey months started from January to December in 2016 for the HIES 2016. \n\nSelection of Secondary Sampling Units \nSecondary Sampling Units (SSUs) or Final sampling units (FSUs) are the housing units selected at the second stage from the 2,500 PSUs selected at the first stage. From each PSU, 10 SSUs (housing units) are systematically selected giving each housing unit in the PSU an equal probability to be selected for the survey. The total sample of size 25,000 housing units is resulted at the end of the sampling process and this sample represents the whole country in different probabilities depend on the different sample sizes allocated for the selection domains.","coll_mode":["Face-to-face [f2f]"],"research_instrument":"All the Questionnaires are included in the final report of HIES 2016","weight":"See page number 3-4 for weighting procedure","cleaning_operations":"No content available","method_notes":"Process of data has following steps\nData processing stages as following\na) Data collecting through diary method and shedule\nb) Entering data in to data base by district offices.\nc) Sending data to the head office\nd) Data verifying\ne) Data cleaning"},"analysis_info":{"response_rate":"See page number 2 for further details"}},"data_access":{"dataset_use":{"conf_dec":[{"txt":"Under the Statistical ordinance, micro data cannot be released with identifications for public use.
