IMPORTANT:

  • You need to run the Epi Info programmes AgeRange2564 (or AgeRange1564) and MissingAgeSexConsent prior to running any of the programmes in the data book. You should only need to run these programmes one time. If age and/or sex can be entered for any records missing this information, then enter this missing information and run Rerun_AgeSex2564 (or Rerun_AgeSex1564) followed by MissingAgeSexConsent.
  • ALL questions that report results by age and/or sex use the variables AgeRange, Sex, and Valid. These variables are created in the above AgeRange and MissingAgeSexConsent programmes using the variables C1, C2, and C3.
  • ALL weighted programs use the variables PSU,Stratum, and one of either WStep1,WStep2, or WStep3.
  • Unweighted tables will not have confidence intervals associated with them.
