Sampling
Weighting
The sample for MICS Eastern 2007 was not self-weighted and therefore it was necessary to weight the data to enable estimation of population parameters. Weighting was done at three levels, i.e. at the household interview, child interview and the woman interview. The selection probabilities from the NASSEP IV Master sample were applied with necessary adjustment for non-response.
