Baseline household survey: Upper Dir district
The Pakistan Initiative for Mothers and Newborns (PAIMAN) is a five-year project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). PAIMAN is committed to assisting the Government of Pakistan in implementing the full spectrum of interventions necessary to address maternal and neonatal health issues. USAID has provided a grant to implement PAIMAN in ten districts of Pakistan's four provinces. The goal of the project is to reduce maternal, newborn, and child mortality. The project calls for a multipronged and integrated strategic approach combining individual health care with public health and community-based interventions. To ensure that success is properly attained and appropriate lessons are learned, PAIMAN has developed a monitoring and evaluation plan, which includes the establishment of baseline measures for a set of indicators that will be used to evaluate the success of the project. This baseline report explores the level of knowledge of, as well as the attitudes and behaviors toward, maternal and newborn health in Upper Dir district.

Is "Up" Right? The National Household Survey on Drug Abuse
In: Public opinion quarterly: journal of the American Association for Public Opinion Research, Band 61, Heft 4, S. 627-641
ISSN: 0033-362X
Describes the sample design, collection techniques, & methodology used by the US National Household Survey on Drug Abuse (NHSDA) for 11 surveys carried out, 1979-1996. Discussed are the complex nature of drug-abuse measurement, difficulties in making reliable inferences from the results, & advantages & disadvantages of personal interviews vs mail self-administered surveys. The question of whether positive reports of drug usage are more valid than negative ones is considered along with the factors that contribute to inaccurate reporting. It is suggested that NHSDA research would be more useful if it was augmented by validation studies that make use of technologies, eg, audio computer-assisted self-interview. However, it is noted that such techniques also need study. J. Lindroth
Migration and remittances in Kazakhstan: First evidence from a household survey
Internal migration flows in Kazakhstan are of high social and political relevance but political and public attention has primarily been devoted to external movements. This paper presents the main descriptive results of a new household survey on migration and remittances in Kazakhstan which was conducted in four cities (Almaty, Astana, Karaganda and Pavlodar) between October and December 2010. It summarizes the survey's methodology, gives an overview over the basic characteristics of respondents, illustrates migration experiences on the individual and the household level and compares migrants and non-migrants. Furthermore, the prevalence of remittances and attitudes towards migration are discussed.

Multidimensional poverty in Viet Nam: Evidence from a rural household survey
For years, the international development community has been considering poverty as a multidimensional phenomenon, which takes into account not only income or consumption of the poor, but also their access to basic needs (education, health, etc.) and resources (credit, social network, etc.). In Viet Nam, since 2016, the Government has adopted the multidimensional approach to thoroughly measure poverty. This paper is an attempt to assess the state and evolution of multidimensional poverty in the rural areas of Viet Nam, using data from the Viet Nam Access to Resources Household Survey 2008-16. Results show remarkable improvement of the living conditions in the rural areas, with a greater pace shown among the ethnic minority groups. However, there need to be more efforts to reduce the gap in poverty headcount ratios among Kinh and non-Kinh groups, households with male and female heads, and among households in different provinces. Some of the main suggestions to reduce multidimensional poverty in Viet Nam is to increase households' access to health care services, education, clean water and hygienic latrines, and to improve the presence of such service providers near the households' locations.
