13.1. Accuracy - overall | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The main types of error encountered in the survey are the following: 1. Coverage error: The sampling frame currently used is the Census of Population 2011. During the intercensal period the frame is not updated. 2. Non-response (unit and item): Efforts are made to reduce unit non-response by training interviewers to avoid refusals as much as possible. Item non-response is mainly observed for certain questions which are sensitive to respondents, such as expenditure questions. 3. Recall bias: To eliminate recall bias, there is a recall period of 4 weeks for obtaining information on each trip. |
