20 | PMA2014 ETHIOPIA DETAILED INDICATOR REPORT<br />
Response Rates<br />
The response rates at the household and female respondent levels are shown in Table 1 for both<br />
PMA2014/Ethiopia and the EDHS 2011. Of the households selected for surveys, a total of 6,919 households<br />
were found to be occupied at the time of the fieldwork. Of these 6,919 potential respondents,<br />
6,782 consented to the household interview, for a response rate of 98.0%. The response rate was<br />
similar for both urban and rural areas (98.0%).<br />
In the selected households, 6,688 eligible women ages 15 to 49 were identified, and 6,550 of them<br />
participated in interviews (98.2% response rate). The participation rate was similarly high in urban<br />
areas (98.3%) and rural areas (98.2%).<br />
The PMA2014/Ethiopia response rates for selected households were comparable with those observed<br />
by the EDHS 2011, and slightly higher for selected eligible women. The relatively higher response<br />
rate for eligible women could be due to the shorter interview time and use of mobile phones to<br />
interview women, which may have increased their interest in participating.<br />
Tabulations presented in this report, with the exception of Table 1, are weighted and adjusted for<br />
non-response at the household and female respondent levels.<br />
