Abstract
---------------------------

The 2000 Sierra Leone Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey—2 (MICS2) is a nationally representative survey of households, women, and children. The main objectives of the survey are to provide up-to-date information for assessing the situation of children and women in Sierra Leone at the end of the decade and to furnish data needed for monitoring progress toward goals established at the World Summit for Children and as a basis for future action.

Sampling procedure
---------------------------

The sampling methodology used in the MICS2 survey was designed to provide estimates of health and education indicators at the national level, for urban and rural areas, and for the four regions of Sierra Leone: North, South, East and West. The sample was selected in three stages using a stratified cluster sampling methodology. Sierra Leone has been demarcated into 2,546 enumeration areas (EAs) for the purpose of collecting census data. The current population of each EA in Sierra Leone was estimated through the use of key informants at the chiefdom level. Refugee camps containing Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) were considered to be additional EAs and were included in the sample frame of EAs in order to ensure that IDPs were adequately represented in the survey. Based on the EA population estimates, randomized systematic sampling was used to select 225 EAs for the survey. The probability of an EA’s selection was proportional to the size of its population4, resulting in a self-weighting sample. Selected EAs were divided into segments of approximately 100 households each with the aid of a local informant. Maps of the selected EAs, maintained in the Cartographic Section of the CSO, were used to guide this “segmentation”. One segment in each EA was then randomly selected. The map of this segment was then updated. This segment was then divided into pieces of approximately 20 households, one of which was randomly selected for inclusion in the survey. All households in the selected piece were listed on the Household Listing Form for the EA and included in the survey. This approach to sampling yielded an overall sample size of 4,566 households. A household was defined as “a group of people who all eat from the same pot”, in line with the definition of household used in previous surveys in Sierra Leone. Five of the selected enume ration areas were not surveyed because they were not accessible during the enumeration period. Data from twelve additional EAs in the North that were surveyed were not processed because the fieldworkers had to flee Makeni when hostilities resumed between RUF and government forces in May 2000. Sample weights were used for reporting results to compensate for the seventeen clusters that were not included in the final database. Full technical details of the sampling plan are detailed in Appendix C.

Research instrument
---------------------------

The MICS2 manual provides a carefully constructed core questionnaire that is extremely comprehensive in nature. The core questionnaire is made up of three questionnaires: Household questionnaire, Questionnaire for women, and Questionnaire for children. Explicit instructions are given regarding the addition and subtraction of questions to the core questionnaire. Very minimal modifications were made to the questionnaires for the purpose of the Sierra Leone MICS2. Optional modules such as the Disability Module and the Maternal Mortality Module were modified and added to the core questionnaire. Several additional questions were incorporated into existing modules to provide information pertinent to development and relief efforts in Sierra Leone. Any additions to or deletions from the core questionnaire were done within the guidelines detailed in the MICS2 manual. The household questionnaire was administered in each household. This questionnaire collects information on household members including sex, age, literacy, marital status, and orphanhood status. The household questionnaire also includes modules on education, child labor, water and sanitation, salt iodization, disability and maternal mortality. The Questionnaire for women and Questionnaire for children were administered in each surveyed household for women age 15-49 and children under age five. For children, the questionnaire was administered to the mother or caretaker of the child.

Response rate
---------------------------

As noted above, hostilities between the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) and forces aligned with the Government resumed during the final week of data collection for the MICS2 survey in May 2000. As a result, one cluster in the East and four clusters in the North could not be surveyed. Completed questionnaires from twelve clusters in the Northern region that had already been surveyed were stranded in Makeni when enumerators could not return to collect them. The completed questionnaires had been stored there for safekeeping while the survey team had travele d to remote regions to survey other clusters. Data from eight of these clusters have been retrieved recently and will shortly be added to the MICS2 database. In the original sample of 225 EAs there were 4566 households selected for the survey. There were 4207 households selected for the survey in the 208 clusters that were successfully surveyed and entered into the database. 4021 of these 4207 households were found to be occupied and were successfully surveyed, yielding a household response rate of 97 percent (Table 1; see Appendix F). In the interviewed households, 5750 eligible women (age 15-49) were identified. Of these, 4923 were successfully interviewed, yielding a response rate of 85.6 percent. In addition, 3060 children under age five were listed in the household questionnaires of surveyed households. Questionnaires were completed for 2764 of these children for a response rate of 90.3
percent.

样本调查数据 [ssd]
抽样程序
---------------------------
MICS2调查中使用的抽样方法旨在为国家层面、城市和农村地区以及塞拉利昂的四个地区（北部、南部、东部和西部）提供健康和教育指标估计值。样本通过分层聚类抽样方法分三个阶段选取。为了收集人口普查数据，塞拉利昂已被划分为2,546个统计区域（EA）。通过在首领级使用关键信息提供者，估计了每个EA在塞拉利昂的当前人口。包含国内流离失所者（IDP）的难民营被视为额外的EA，并被纳入EA抽样框，以确保IDP在调查中得到充分代表。根据EA人口估计值，使用随机系统抽样选取了225个EA进行调查。EA选择的概率与其人口规模成比例，从而产生一个自加权样本。在有当地信息提供者帮助的情况下，选定的EA被划分为每个约100户人家的段落。CSO制图部门的选定EA地图用于指导这一“划分”。然后，每个EA中的一个段落被随机选中。然后更新这一段落的地图。然后，该段落被划分为约20户人家的几部分，其中一部分被随机选中纳入调查。选定部分的全部家庭都被列入EA的家庭名单表，并纳入调查。这种抽样方法产生了4,566个家庭的总体样本量。家庭被定义为“所有从同一锅吃饭的人组成的群体”，这与塞拉利昂以前调查中使用的家庭定义一致。由于在人口普查期间无法进入，有五个选定的普查区域未进行调查。在2000年5月RUF与政府部队之间恢复敌对行动时，调查员不得不逃离马肯尼，导致北部的12个EA的调查数据未能处理。用于报告结果时，样本权重被用于补偿最终数据库中未包含的十七个聚类。抽样计划的完整技术细节详见附录C。

研究工具
---------------------------
MICS2手册提供了一个精心构建的核心问卷，其性质极为全面。核心问卷由三个问卷组成：家庭问卷、妇女问卷和儿童问卷。对核心问卷中问题的增减提供了明确的说明。为了塞拉利昂MICS2的目的，对问卷进行了非常 minimal 的修改。可选模块，如残疾模块和孕产妇死亡率模块，已被修改并添加到核心问卷中。将一些附加问题纳入现有模块，以提供与塞拉利昂发展和救济努力相关的信息。对核心问卷的任何增减都在MICS2手册中详细说明的指南内进行。家庭问卷在每户家庭中进行。该问卷收集有关家庭成员的信息，包括性别、年龄、识字、婚姻状况和孤儿状况。家庭问卷还包括教育、儿童劳动、水和卫生、食盐碘化、残疾和孕产妇死亡率模块。妇女问卷和儿童问卷在每户调查家庭中对15-49岁的妇女和5岁以下的儿童进行。对于儿童，问卷由孩子的母亲或监护人进行。
响应率
---------------------------
如上所述，2000年5月在MICS2调查数据收集的最后一周，革命统一阵线（RUF）与政府部队的敌对行动恢复。因此，东部一个聚类和北部四个聚类无法进行调查。当调查员无法返回收集时，北部的12个已经调查的聚类完成的问卷被困在马肯尼。这些完成的问卷已经存放在那里以供安全保管，同时调查队已前往偏远地区调查其他聚类。最近回收了其中八个聚类的数据，并将很快添加到MICS2数据库中。在原始的225个EA样本中，有4,566个家庭被选中进行调查。在成功调查并进入数据库的208个聚类中，有4,207个家庭被选中进行调查。其中4,021个家庭被发现有人居住并成功调查，家庭响应率为97%（见表1；参见附录F）。在采访的家庭中，确定了5,750名符合条件的妇女（15-49岁）。其中4,923人成功接受了采访，响应率为85.6%。此外，在调查家庭的名单中列出了3,060名5岁以下的儿童。完成了2,764名这些儿童的问卷，响应率为90.3%。
