At the second stage, the elderly was classified according to the living environment in urban and rural areas separately. From urban areas, the large, medium and small cities were selected respectively; in the rural, three counties representing good, moderate and poor economic situations were selected in each province. From each county, a typical village was selected to conduct the survey.

MAJOR INVESTIGATOR: The State Statistical Bureau of China (SSB)

RESPONDENTS: Every-married women under 50 years old

UNIVERSE/TIME: Shaanxi, Hebei and Shanghai. April 1985

CONTENT:

The survey employed three types of questionnaire to collect information at three levels, namely communities, households and women. The community questionnaire includes 23 questions on condition of production, revenue, public facilities, transportation, education, health care and family planning services; the household questionnaire enumerates the population residing in the household and identifies ever-married women eligible for the detailed individual interview; Questions in the individual questionnaire are on marriage, pregnant history, child health care, knowledge and use of contraception, contraceptive history, fertility preference, attitudes to marriage age, and other questions related to fertility.

SAMPLING:

A stratified multistage sampling was employed. In Hebei and Shaanxi, cities and counties formed the primary sampling units (PSUs).

In Shanghai, PSUs consisted of street committees, towns or townships (Xiang). Three strata were created in accordance with each of the three units. Within each of the selected PSUs, three units were selected at each stage.
