Thirteen clusters were inaccessibledue to impassable roads or tenuous security situations. All reported estimates and design weightsfor households, individual interviews, and blood draws are based on data from the 402 clusters.Details on methods for performing an adjustment for cluster‐level non‐response in the calculationof weights are provided in Appendix A. The survey was not designed to produce reliable districtlevelestimates. Estimates are presented by rural/urban residence, and by province.1.5 DATA COLLECTION TOOLSQuestionnairesTwo questionnaires were used: a household questionnaire and an individual questionnaire. Thecontent of the questionnaires was adapted from standard <strong>AIDS</strong> Indicator Survey questionnairesdeveloped by ORC Macro, the 2003 KDHS HIV Module and previous surveys conducted inAfrica.

The <strong>KAIS</strong> Technical Working Group (TWG) modifiedexisting questions and designed new questions to reflect current and emerging issues inHIV/<strong>AIDS</strong> in the country. The final questionnaires were translated from English into Kiswahiliand 11 vernacular languages and back‐translated into English to ensure accuracy. Thequestionnaires were further refined after a pilot study prior to distribution of the final versions tofield staff.The household questionnaire gathered basic information from the head of the household on usualmembers and visitors in the household, including age, sex, education, relationship to the head ofhousehold, and orphanhood among children. Information was collected on characteristics of thehousehold’s dwelling unit, such as the source of water, type of toilet facilities, materials used forthe floor of the house, property ownership, and mosquito nets. Information was also collected onwhether the household had received specific types of care and support in the 12 months prior to4Nairobi is exclusively urban; there were no rural clusters in Nairobi.<strong>KAIS</strong> <strong>2007</strong> 19
