Title: Survey on Equipment and Use of Information and Communication Technologies in Households |
|
Organisation running the survey: INSTITUTO NACIONAL DE ESTADÍSTICA ( INE ) |
|
Survey period: 2 March – 15 September 2020 |
Sampling and statistical methodology:
The sampling frame for primary sampling units is a census sections' list continuously updated in order to incorporate any possible variations. For secondary sampling units the sampling frame is obtained through exploitation of the Population Register managed by INE, which gives the list of households.
A probability sampling design is used, with 3 sampling stages (geographical areas, households and individuals) and an explicit stratification at first stage. The sampling method at first stage is the systematic sampling with probabilities proportional-to-size with stratification effect. The related auxiliary variables for stratification are municipalities. The sampling unit at the ultimate stage is the individual. Within each household a person aged 16 or over was chosen with equal probability using the Kish random method. In addition, information is collected for all children aged 10 to 15 years. |

Main methodological differences compared to previous survey(s): Until 2015, random substitutions for non-respondent households were used in the first interview. Following the Eurostat suggestions, it was decided to remove the substitution method, and to increase the sample size up to 13 units in each PSU (census section), just in order to assure the effective sample size. On the other hand, there are two differences more in the sampling design compared to the previous survey. • Redefinition of the strata, using available information from the 2015 Population Register • New sample allocation of PSU’s across the strata, in each autonomous community (NUTS2). |

Main methodological differences compared to previous survey(s): In the survey of 2011 was started a process of change in the distribution of the sample in order to assure a minimum sample size in the smallest NUTS2. As this is a continuous survey, changes have been extended along the time to avoid as much as possible an impact in estimates. The whole process of change took place until 2014. There are important differences in the way of collecting data compared to previous survey. Due to organizational measures carried out in the NSI of Spain, the data (only in the CAPI system) have been collected by INE. This measure affects first interviews and personal voluntary following interviews, that is, more than one third of the sample. |

As this is a continuous survey, changes have been extended along the time to avoid as much as possible an impact in estimates. The whole process of change will take place along next two years (until 2014). Data corresponding to the ICT HH 2013 survey have been calculated using estimated populations obtained from the Census 2011 and they are not comparable with data from earlier periods. In next months, standardised series will be transmitted with the revision of the macro and micro data files. Until 2012, external information used for calibration of individuals took into account the age groups and gender for each autonomous community (NUTS2). Since 2013 the nationality of individuals 's also included for each NUTS2 as auxiliary variable for calibration. This external information required for calibration also is the result of estimates obtained from the last Census. |

Survey period: 23rd January – 11th May 2012 |
Sampling and statistical methodology: The sampling frame is the Population Register managed by INE and updated in a continuous way.
Stratification: TYPE OF SAMPLING An independent sample is designed in each autonomous community (NUTS 2) to represent it. The sampling type used is a three-staged stratified sampling. Primary sampling units (PSU) are census sections (geographical areas). Secondary sampling units (SSU) are the main family households and final units are people aged 16 or over. The stratification criterion used for PSU’s is the size of the municipalities to which the section belongs. There are a maximum of six strata in each NUTS2.
SAMPLE ALLOCATION The sample was distributed among autonomous communities using a compromise between uniform and proportional to size allocation. Allocation among strata is proportional to their size, but ensuring that the number of sections per stratum in each autonomous community is a multiple of four.
SELECTION OF THE SAMPLE The selection of first-stage units in each stratum was made using probability proportional to the size of each section. In a second stage, the households were selected by means of systematic sampling with random start and equal selection probabilities for each household in the section; so this procedure leads us to obtain self-weighted samples of households in each stratum. In a third-stage, and within each household, a person aged 16 or over was chosen with equal probability using the Kish random method. In addition, information is collected for all children aged 10 to 15 years. |

Important differences in the way of collecting data compared to previous survey: 1- outsourcing. Due to organization measures carried out in the NSI of Spain, the data collection (only in the CAPI) has been outsourced. This measure affects first interviews and personal voluntary following interviews, that is, one third of the sample. The private company collected the data with computers and software property of the INE. 2- A new collecting data software. In both systems CAPI and CATI, data has been collected using a new collecting data software, entirely developed by the computing Department at the INE, with new technologies and JAVA language. This is the first time this software is used, so at the beginning there has been some bugs and problems, latterly solved. See also methodological summary – Nature of the basic data - footnotes |

The stratification criterion used is the sized of the municipalities to which the section belongs. SIZE OF SAMPLING AFFIXATION. The sample was distributed among autonomous communities using a compromise between uniform and proportional affixation to the size of the community. Between strata, affixation is proportional to their size, also upholding that the number of sections per stratum in each autonomous community be a multiple of four.
SELECTION OF THE SAMPLE The selection of first-stage units in each stratum was made using probability proportional to the size of each section. In a second stage, the households were selected by means of systematic sampling with random start and equal selection probabilities for each household in the section; this procedure that leads us to obtain self-weighted samples of households in each stratum. In a third-stage, and within each household , a person aged 16 or over was chosen with equal probability using the Kish random method , as well children aged from 10 to 15 .

Main methodological differences compared to previous survey(s): The methodology applied in ICT-H 2002 survey is significantly different from the one in 2003 and 2004 because in 2002 , the survey was a module embedded in LFS questionnaire survey .Moreover , ( in 2002 ) all Internet users in the household are interviewed and the use of computer are asked only to the Internet users. The statistical approach for the ICT-H 2003 and beyond is a rotating panel “ without longitudinal dimension” . Every year , a quarter of the sample is renewed. The methodology is the same and one person aged 15 or over and all children aged from 10 to 14 are interviewed in each household . So , the results in 2003 and 2004 are comparable . |
