with preliminary stratification. The population census data were gathered using the following administrative units: the population census districts, supervisor site and enumerator unit.

Within each primary sampling unit in rural areas selected at the first stage, one secondary sampling unit per interviewer was selected, using systematic probability proportional to size sampling. In order to spread out to a greater extent the sample within each primary sampling unit of urban areas, two secondary sampling units per interviewer were selected using systematic probability proportional to size sampling.

Материальная депривация

Госкомстат в 2014 году изучал методологию по вопросам материальной депривации населения, в том числе используемую методологию Евростата. В феврале 2015 года проведен пилотный опрос на сети домохозяйств, принимающих участие в обследовании бюджетов домашних хозяйств. В настоящее время обрабатывается результаты данного обследования.

Application of new technology in household survey Statstatcom of the Republic of Azerbaijan implemented

survey on deprivation by the application of modern information technology. By the purpose of preparation of operative and more complete statistical data in online regime were used tablet-type computers. The advantage of this experience of technological innovation is not using the paper during the collection of data. Statistical data had been loaded into the tablet type computers, inserted into tables and saved through touch screen and transferred directly to the special address of the Committee’s server network through the special software package in any web space. Comprehensiveness of inquiry had been checked by means of logical control software compiled to minimize errors probability during the survey. Statistical data entered to the server is afterward transformed into database files and accepted for processing.
