Sampling procedure

Probability: Stratified
Probability: Simple random
Urvalsramen i denna undersökning har skapats utifrån Registret över totalbefolkningen (RTB) och består av samtliga folkbokförda i Göteborg i åldern 16-84 år. Antalet individer i ramen var 408 814 den 31/1 2010.

Det nationella urvalet drogs först genom ett obundet slumpmässigt urval. Därefter drogs ett stratifierat obundet slumpmässigt urval i Göteborg så att den bestämda urvalsstorleken per stratum uppnåddes. Ett stratifierat obundet slumpmässigt urval innebär att alla objekt inom respektive stratum har lika stor sannolikhet att komma med i urvalet. Mer information finns att läsa i Teknisk rapport.
