Hi,
I am trying to set the survey design for the following survey:
A two stage stratified sampling procedure based on provinces and urban/rural location
20 provinces were chosen for the survey, from which, 340 enumeration areas were randomly selected, from which, 30 households were randomly sampled if the EA was urban and 40 households were randomly sampled if the EA was rural.
I am unsure what the syntax for the svyset command should be in the case of the 2 stratum
If I generate the following variables:
province = a indicator of the provinces chosen for the survey;
ea = an indicator of the EA chosen for the survey;
rural = an indicator of urban/rural location.
n_ea = the number of EAs per province.
n_hh = the number of hhs per ea
I am on the right track with what's below or do I need another variable -n_hh2- equal to the number of hhs per urban/rural location?
svyset ea [pw=weight], strata(province) fpc(n_ea) || hh, strata(rural) fpc(n_hh)
Cheers
Michael
