Sampling procedure

Probability: Stratified
Probability: Simple random
Urvalsramen i undersökningen skapades med hjälp av data från Registret över totalbefolkningen (RTB), version 2015-11-30. Antalet personer i urvalsramen var 436 989. Urvalsramen stratifierades på stadsdel. Definition av stadsdelar gjordes enligt kommunens definition av stadsdelar med hjälp av nyckelkodsområden. Personer (1 576st) som saknade nyckelkod (dvs. de kan inte placeras i
en särskild stadsdel) exkluderades. Totalt bildades 10 strata. En negativ samordning gjordes med det nationella urvalet. Det innebar att 1 216 personer i det nationella urvalet som tillhörde Göteborgs Stad inte kunde dras i tilläggsurvalet. Från urvalsramen drogs sedan ett slumpmässigt urval om 4 984 personer. Urvalsstorleken bestämdes av Göteborgs Stad.
