  • Public use microdata: 82F0001X
    Description:

    The National Population Health Survey (NPHS) uses the Labour Force Survey sampling frame to draw a sample of approximately 22,000 households. The sample is distributed over four quarterly collection periods. In each household, some limited information is collected from all household members and one person, aged 12 years and over, in each household is randomly selected for a more in-depth interview.

    The questionnaire includes content related to health status, use of health services, determinants of health and a range of demographic and economic information. For example, the health status information includes self-perception of health, a health status index, chronic conditions, and activity restrictions. The use of health services is probed through visits to health care providers, both traditional and non-traditional, and the use of drugs and other medications. Health determinants include smoking, alcohol use, physical activity and in the first survey, emphasis has been placed on the collection of selected psycho-social factors that may influence health, such as stress, self-esteem and social support. The demographic and economic information includes age, sex, education, ethnicity, household income and labour force status.

    Description:

    Statistical agencies are conducting increasing numbers of longitudinal surveys. Although the main output of these surveys consists of longitudinal data, most of them are also expected to produce reliable cross-sectional estimates. In surveys of individuals and households, population dynamics significantly changes household composition over time. For this reason, methods of cross-sectional estimation must be adapted to the longitudinal aspect of the sample. This paper discusses in a general context the Weight Share method, of which one application is to assign a basic weight to each individual in a household. The variance estimator associated with the Weight Share method is also presented. The weighting of a longitudinal sample is then discussed when a supplementary sample is selected to improve the cross-sectional representativeness of the sample. The paper presents as an application the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) introduced by Statistics Canada in 1994. This longitudinal survey covers individuals’ work experience, changes in income and changes in family composition.
