a
The design effect calculation reflects the weights and does not incorporate the intraclass correlation coefficients. Design effect calculation: n*(sum of squared weights)/[(sum of weights)*(sum of weights)]
b
Margin of error is calculated around a proportion at the 95% confidence level. The maximum margin of error was calculated assuming a reported percentage of 50% and takes into account the design effect.
Margin of error calculation: √(0.25/N)*1.96*√(DE)
c
Areas with disproportionately high number of interviews in the sample.
d
Reasons for these differences could include household sampling, respondent sampling in the household, errors in self-reports of actual attainment, or dated population information.
