Abstract
Cambodia Living Standards Measurement Study – Plus (LSMS+) Survey 2019- 2020 was implemented by the National Institute of Statistics, with support from the World Bank LSMS+ program (www.worldbank.org/lsmsplus). The survey attempted to conduct private interviews with all the adult household members (aged 18 and older) in each sampled household as part of a nationally-representative survey sample. The individual disaggregated data collection had a focus on (i) ownership of and rights to physical and financial assets, (ii) work and employment, and (iii) non-farm enterprises, and was anchored in the latest international recommendations for survey data collection on these topics.

Sampling

Sampling Procedure
The Primary Sampling Units (PSUs) of this survey were the subsamples of the selected PSUs of the Cambodia Socio-Economic Survey (CSES) 2019/20. The PSU in this case can either be a village (if the village is small) or an Enumeration Area (EA) from the mapping operation of 2019 General Population Census of Cambodia (if the village is large, exceeding 120 households). The Cambodia LSMS+ sample covered all the CSES’ s sample villages in three months (those selected for interviews during the October - December period of fieldwork) out of its twelve-month sample.

The Secondary Sampling Units (SSUs) in this survey constitute sample households. In this stage, 6 households were selected in each selected PSU. The selections of these households were carried out in the field by the field enumerators. The selection was done under the Circular Systematic Random Sampling (CSRS) scheme using the PSU frame of household from the household listing conducted by the CSES field enumerator in the selected PSU. More details can be found in the Basic Information Document.
Weighting
Details can be found in the Basic Information Document and the weights can be found in the household-level data file HH_SEC_1. The variable name is finalhhweight.

Data Processing

Data Editing
Data Entry Platform

The Cambodia LSMS+ was conducted using Computer Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI) techniques. The questionnaire was implemented using the CAPI software, Survey Solutions. The Survey Solutions software was developed and maintained by the Data Analytics and Tools Unit within the Development Economics Data Group (DECDG) at the World Bank. Each interviewer was given one tablet, which they used to conduct the interviews. Overall, implementation of survey using Survey Solutions CAPI was highly successful, as it allowed for timely availability of the data from completed interviews.

Data Management

The data communication system used in the Cambodia LSMS+ was highly automated. Field teams were provided with routers to carry with them in the field so they could connect to internet as frequently as possible to sync their questionnaires and this ensured access to the data in real-time.

Data Cleaning
The data cleaning process was done in two main stages. The first stage was to ensure proper quality control during the fieldwork. This was achieved in part by incorporating validation and consistency checks into the Survey Solutions application used for the data collection and designed to highlight many of the errors that occurred during the fieldwork.

The second stage of cleaning involved a comprehensive review of the final raw data following the first stage of cleaning. Every variable was examined individually for (1) consistency with other sections and variables, (2) out of range responses, and (3) formatting.
