Description

Definition
Sample weight is an 8 digit variable with 6 implied decimal places. To use the sample weight, divide it by 1,000,000 before applying the weighting factor. All sample weights are normalized such that the weighted number of cases is identical to the unweighted number of households selected for the men's survey when using the full dataset with no other selection. This variable should be used to weight all tabulations produced using the households selected for the men's survey. For self-weighting samples, this variable is equal to 1,000,000. For households not included in the men's survey subsample, this variable is set to zero (the norm).

All households
Source of information
Calculated by statisticians after the survey data is collected and keyed, but before recoding occurs.

Notes
This will be set to 0 (zero), unless a men's survey is included.
