1 Training Course on the Production of ICT Statistics on Households and Businesses PART A: Statistics on Businesses and on the ICT sector MODULE B3: Designing an ICT business survey
2 After completing this module you will be able to: Design a survey on ICT use in business (sample design) Build a questionnaire using internationally agreed indicators Decide on interviewing method Define outcome indicators Objectives Contents Coverage, target population, statistical units Use of statistical frames Stratification criteria Sample size Sample selection methods B3.2. Model questions and questionnaires Questions for a module on ICT Questionnaires for stand-alone surveys 2
3 Coverage, target population and statistical units As with other business surveys, the scope and target population of the ICT use surveys are defined in terms of: Industry Business size Geographical location (sometimes) 3
4 Partnership industry scope for ICT business surveys The Partnership recommends: The minimum scope of: The OECD core industries (therefore excluding ISIC section J and division 92). In developing economies: The scope of ICT business surveys may deviate from the OECD recommendation to better suit country requirements. Partnership also encourages a broader scope, beyond OECD core and non-core industries. 4
5 Business size A common scope criterion for ICT use surveys is business size based on number of employees. Partnership recommends a minimum size scope of 10 or more employees for international comparability. Some developing economies may decide to include microenterprises (<10 employees) if they represent a large share of the in-scope population. 5
6 Geographical location The geographic scope of the business sector (and its parts) should in principle include the entire country. The geographic scope within a country should ideally include both urban and rural areas. 6
7 Statistical units The enterprise is the statistical unit most commonly adopted by countries that have implemented ICT surveys and is the unit recommended by the Partnership. The Manual recommends that countries adopt the SNA93 concept of enterprise: An institutional unit in its capacity as a producer of goods and services With some degree of autonomy in decision-making And consisting of one or more legal units involved in one or more activities at one or more locations Could be a corporation or an unincorporated enterprise. 7
8 Use of statistical frames Business registers should be improved through the coordination with other sources. General administrative registers: taxes, registrations, licenses, social security, etc. Specific registers: licenses for operating telecommunications businesses. Statistical databases: updated from economic censuses. 8
9 If no business register is available Population frames can be obtained from other sources: Lists of live units in economic censuses External directories Commercial telephone listings Industry association lists The frame should be checked in terms of coverage Comparison with external sources Adjusting of the estimates (reweighting) If the population frame lacks information on industry or size The survey should include questions to classify the respondent unit 9
10 SAMPLE DESIGN Sample selection should be made using probabilistic techniques This guarantees that the sample is truly representative of the population Only probabilistic (random) sampling allows calculation of estimates of the sampling error The design of a random sample should consider: The structure of the population of businesses (its stratification), The cost of collecting data and, The maximum acceptable statistical error associated with estimates. 10
11 Stratification criteria Optimal stratification for ICT use business surveys Basic stratification variables Industry and Size of business Additional stratification variable Geographical location of the business 11
12 Sample size Methods for deriving the sample size and design: Bottom-up procedure: Use of estimates of sampling error and auxiliary information Setting the required precision (CV) Eurostat recommendations Adjusting of total sample size Top-down Procedure: Calculation of the overall sample size Available budget and collection unit cost Allocation of the sample by strata 12
13 Sample Selection Methods Simple random sampling Random draw of n numbers between 1 and N Generation of random numbers Statistical software Random numbers tables Systematic sampling Procedure Arrangement of units from 1 to N Obtain: -Interval K=N/n - Starting point t (random number between 1 and K) Selection of units t+i*k (i=0,1,...,n) Pros: It may improve representativeness of the sample Cons: It produces biased estimates (unless the weighting factor is adjusted) 13
14 B3.2. Model questions and questionnaires Topics covered by Sub-module B3.2 Building a questionnaire using internationally agreed indicators Selecting topics to be included in the questionnaire Preparing topic-related questions Choosing appropriate wording Preparing answer patterns Deciding on interviewing method Defining outcome indicators 14
