In the second stage we calculate the weight of households in each enumeration area. Initial household weights resulted from the product of the weight of the first stage and the weight of the second stage. then we adjusted the initial weight by product the initial weight and the adjustment factor. Hence, the final household weights were obtained after adjustment of the initial weights with the household estimates for middle of 2015 according to design strata (governorate, locality type).   \n\nWeights for household members were calculated as follows:\n1-\tadding the household weights for each person per household, known as the primary weight of person.\n2-\tadjusting the primary person weights in relation to the estimated number of population in the middle of June 2015 by the following adjustment levels: (region (West Bank, Gaza Strip), gender (male, female), 18 years and more age groups).\n3-\tFinally, we obtain the final person weight in each adjustment level which the person belongs to.","cleaning_operations":"During the different phases of the work several measures have been taken to ensure quality control, such as:\n\u00b7The data entry program was examined before starting the data entry process,\n\u00b7There was a continuous contact with the field workers through field visits,\n\u00b7Regular meetings were held with the field team during field visits, \n\u00b7And an appropriate solutions were put when further clarifications were needed.","method_notes":"The data entry program was checked before starting the data entry process"},"analysis_info":{"response_rate":"The survey sample consisted of 8,000 households, of which 6,823 households completed the interview: 4,535 households from the West Bank and 2,288 households in the Gaza Strip.
