National Panel Survey 2011-2012 - Uganda

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

The overall objective of the UNPS Program is to collect high quality data on key outcome indicators such as poverty, service delivery, governance and employment among others; to monitor Government's development programmes like the NDP and the JAF among others on an annual basis. The specific objectives of the survey are:

- To provide information required for monitoring the NDP and other development objectives like the JAF, MDGs as well as specific programs such as the National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) among others.
- To provide high quality nationally representative information on income dynamics at the household level as well as annual consumption expenditure estimates to monitor poverty in years between the Uganda National Household Surveys (UNHS)
- To supply regular data on agriculture in order to characterize and monitor the performance of the agricultural sector.

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

The 2011-2012 UNPS survey maintained the 2010-2011 UNPS sample design whereby all households that were sampled for Wave II (2010/11) were tracked and re-interviewed in Wave III (2011-2012). Out of the 7,400 households interviewed during the UNHS 2005-2006, 3,123 households were selected for the panel surveys. As a result, the same sample was maintained in 2009-2010, 2010-2011 and 2011-2012 round of surveys. During data collection, households or individuals that had permanently left the original households to known locations were tracked and interviewed. The new households formed are known as split-off households whereas the individuals are termed as movers.

Sampling deviation
---------------------------

The drop in the number of households between wave II and wave III can be attributed to sample attrition-that is, households/people dropping out of the sample due to refusal, death, or the inability of the field teams to locate them among others. 32 percent of the UNPS households were not traced in 2011/12 because they had shifted to unknown locations, 25 percent were not known/not found while 12 percent of the households had disintegrated. Regionally, higher proportions of households (48%) that had shifted were registered in the Eastern and Western regions while Kampala (44%) had the highest percentage of households that were not know/not found and the Northern region (18%) had the highest of those households that had disintegrated.

Computer Assisted Personal Interview [capi]

Cleaning operations
---------------------------

The 2011-2012 round of UNPS used a computerized system of data collection whereby field staff directly captured information using Ultra Mobile Personal Computers (UMPCs) during data collection. The UMPCs were loaded with a data entry application with in-built range and consistency checks to ensure good quality data. Field Team Leaders run checks on the data while still in the field thereafter electronically transmitting it to UBOS Headquarters for verification. Every team was facilitated with an internet modem, a generator and extra UMPC batteries to ensure uninterrupted power supply and internet connectivity while in the field.

摘要
---------------------------
联合国贫困状况监测计划（UNPS）的总体目标是收集关于关键结果指标的高质量数据，如贫困、服务提供、治理和就业等；并按年度监测政府的发展计划，如国家发展计划（NDP）和联合援助框架（JAF）等。调查的具体目标包括：

- 为监测NDP、JAF、千年发展目标（MDGs）以及其他特定计划，如国家农业咨询服务（NAADS）等提供所需信息。
- 提供高质量的国家级代表性信息，以监测家庭层面的收入动态以及年度消费支出估计，从而监控乌干达国家家庭调查（UNHS）之间的贫困状况。
- 定期提供农业数据，以描述和监测农业部门的表现。

抽样程序
---------------------------
2011-2012年的UNPS调查维持了2010-2011年UNPS的样本设计，其中对所有在第二次浪潮（2010/11）中抽样的家庭进行了追踪和重新访谈，在第三次浪潮（2011-2012）中进行。在2005-2006年UNHS中采访的7,400户家庭中，有3,123户被选为面板调查。因此，2009-2010年、2010-2011年和2011-2012年的调查轮次中保持了相同的样本。在数据收集期间，追踪并采访了永久离开原始家庭并迁至已知地点的家庭或个人。新形成的家庭被称为分家户，而个人则被称为迁移者。
抽样偏差
---------------------------
家庭数量在第二次浪潮和第三次浪潮之间的下降可以归因于样本损耗，即家庭/个人因拒绝、死亡或现场团队无法找到等原因而退出样本。2011/12年，32%的UNPS家庭无法追踪，因为他们迁至未知地点，25%的家庭未知/未找到，12%的家庭已解散。地区上，东部和西部地区的家庭迁移比例较高（48%），而坎帕拉（44%）的家庭未知/未找到的比例最高，北部地区（18%）的家庭解散的比例最高。

数据清洗操作
---------------------------
2011-2012轮次的UNPS采用了计算机化的数据收集系统，现场工作人员在数据收集期间直接使用超移动个人计算机（UMPCs）捕获信息。UMPCs加载了具有内置范围和一致性检查的数据输入应用程序，以确保数据质量。现场团队领导在野外对数据进行检查，然后将其电子传输到UBOS总部进行验证。每个团队都配备了互联网调制解调器、发电机和额外的UMPC电池，以确保在野外不间断的电源供应和互联网连接。
