  • Methodology of Living Standard Survey Sampling in the Republic of Tajikistan
    Methodology of living standard survey sampling in the Republic of Tajikistan Sampling for the living standard survey is in general to provide representativeness of the population therefore it was based on the number of population of the republic, urban and rural population i.e. specific gravity of the urban and rural population, and also administrative territorial division i.e. in oblast levels (see Appendix). Number of population as to Jan 1, Number of population points 1998 (in thousand) (p/p) Total Urban Rural Total Urban Rural Total: in Republic 6043,9 1629,4 4415,5 125 34 91 including: Dushanbe 509,3 509,3 - 11 11 - RRS 1352,1 174,2 1177,9 27 3 24 Leninabad oblast 1850,4 525,1 1325,3 38 11 27 Khatlon oblast 2135,7 395,6 1740,1 44 8 36 Gorno Badakhshan 196,4 25,2 171,2 5 1 4 Sampling was done in two stages. At the first stage the number of territorial units (points) were selected so called initial units of sampling (IUS) in each oblast separately urban and rural population each village of Jamoat with the number of population and household was considered as the territorial unit of sampling. The first stage of sampling consisted of the development of the sampling basis and the number of the population of the republic in towns, rayons, Jamoats, villages of Jamoat in each oblast were taken into consideration. Territorial units consits of a territory or administrative unit like rayons, towns and Jamoat-village in rural area. Selected units inspite of their characteristics are called initial units of sampling (IUS).
