Step-1
Use CPS-1901 to derive overaLL CPR as well as ego-6pocific
CPR's by adjusting for suspected under-reporting of male methods.
The CPS-1981 giveG an unadjusted overall CPR equal to 0.186.
However, it is suspected that the women respondents did not fully
report ma l e methods (Vasectomy and condom use) . Simi tar underreporting
was noticed in CPS-1983, ar estimate of which was made
possib le by tho results of the couple-smple. Since no couplesample
was conducted in 19811 the rate of famaL a under-reporting
of male methods found in 1983 was applied to 1S also. The
overall CPR i n 1901, adjusted in this manner, works out to be
0.209, and an age-wise breakdown of this is shown below:­
Age-group 15-19 20-24 25-29 30-34 35-39 40-44 45-49
CPR 0.101 0.195 0.256 0.274 0.246 0.243 0.125
Steo 2
Take the duta of 1981 population census and adjuat it for
under-enumerat ion to obtain total population, and age-wise figures
of AWRA and HWRA, for example,
Total population [adjusted) in thoisands = 89,915
AWRA [adjusted] in thousands = 16,923
HWRA (adjusted] in thousands = 15,895
