Abstract:

This paper compares the design effects of sampling frames in three establishment surveys, E1, E2, E3, of the utilization of establishment services by small populations. Surveys E1 and E2 use population survey-generated sampling frames that list establishments which have transactions with people in household sample surveys. In E1, the population survey-generated sampling frame lists all establishments that have transactions with people in the household sample survey. In E2, the population survey-generated frame lists the subset of establishments that have transactions with the people in the household sample survey that belong to the small population of interest. Survey E3 uses a complete establishment frame that lists all establishments.
