Sampling
Sampling Procedure
The universe from which the AMPS sample is drawn, comprises adults aged 16 years or older in South Africa. In the case of each racial group, certain areas were excluded from consideration, as containing no persons or a negligible number of persons in a given group. A multistage, stratified, quasi-probability design was employed. This study is based on a full annual sample. The data were collected by personal, in-home interviews.

1) Population Weights – “popwght”.
2) Household Weights (not to be used with personal demographics) – “hhwght”.
