The field work started with listing operation where two lists were completed: a list of EA boundaries and roads and list of housing units and households, the later list was considered a basis for monitoring the fieldwork on a daily basis. The listing operation was finalized in the first three days, while the entire fieldwork period extended to slightly more than two weeks. The PES reference date is the night of 22/23 of September 2012. Quality checks of completed questionnaires have been performed on a continuous basis and by different levels of field personnel including field editor, team leader and zonal supervisor. On the basis of the household list, the response rate of listed households exceeds 99 percent at the national level.
Based on the questionnaire design a CSPRO Computer Program has been designed to capture the RPES data. Data entry was carried out in two computers where questionnaires for different provinces were entered subsequently. Data entry were performed in parallel with the matching operation where the questionnaires for which the matching status of all household members has been judged as “Matched” were entered before starting the reconciliation visits , otherwise data entry was performed after contacting the household through phone calls and/or reconciliation visits to settle down the suspicious cases.Upon the completion of data entry for each province, a SPSS file was created for the purpose of result extraction. However, an intensive data editing was carried out on the SPSS file prior to result extraction. Range as well as consistency checks were carefully performed with special consideration given to the residence status at the time of the Census as well as matching status variables. The province-specific clean data files were concatenated so as to produce a single data file for the whole country, on which basis the results of census coverage and content errors have been generated.
The response rate of listed households exceeds 99 percent at the national level.
