Sampling

Sampling Procedure
A nationally representative sample was extracted from the UNHCR database in Lebanon using a simple random sampling approach. Two nationally representative samples were extracted: (1)Syrian refugees, and (2)Non-Syrian refugees. Data collected through the call center via Phone survey. To account for non-response rate, 1,000 Syrian and 1,000 non-Syrian cases were sampled. NB: Please note that while comparison is usually made to VARON/VASYR, methodologies completely differ and as such comparisons should be approached with caution and not interpreted to the dot. Results: 60% response rate for Syrians, 588 interviews completed.
