Disposition | Description |
---|---|
Complete | Complete interview designations required that participants answer the questions necessary for calculation of the bed net indicators of interest as well as those for poststratification adjustment (i.e., bicycle, TV, and radio ownership) |
Partial | Partial interview designations only required that participants answer the questions necessary for calculation of the bed net indicators of interest, but not those used for poststratification adjustment |
Breakoff | Breakoff interview designations denote those interviews in which a participant started answering questions, but ultimately broke off the call before a designation of complete or partial could be established |
Refusal | Refusals were characterized by respondents who indicated that they were not interested in participating in the survey |
Non-contact | Non-contact interviews are those in which the participant could not be reached (no answer or non-assigned phone number) |
Other | If an interview was designated as anything other than complete, partial, breakoff, or refusal, it was dispositioned as ‘other’. In most instances, a designation of ‘other’ resulted from skipped questions necessary for a disposition of complete/partial, but in which the respondent finished the survey |
Ineligible* | Ineligible respondents are those who were under the age of 18Â years or those whose call was ended as the sample quota had been reached for their region |
Finished* | Finished interviews was used as an internal program designation and was used to track progress towards sample size goals. This would include calls dispositioned as complete, partial, and other so long as the participant reached the end of the survey. As such, while this designation was used to track progress towards sample size goals, this category of interviews is not meaningful from an analytic perspective |
