Integrated Survey (non-LSMS) [hh/is]
Pakistan Integrated Household Survey (PIHS) 1998-1999 (Round-III) is the first PIHS after the merger of Household Integrated Economic Survey (HIES) with Pakistan Integrated Household Survey (PIHS) in 1998-99. Previous PIH Surveys were carried out in 1996-97 (Round-II),1995-96 (Round-I) and 1991.
In 1998, the HIES data collection methods and questionnaire were changed to reflect the integration of the HIES with the Pakistan Integrated Household Survey (PIHS).
The objective of the Pakistan Integrated Household Survey (PIHS), a national sample survey, is to provide household and community level data which can be used to monitor, evaluate, and assess the impact of Social Action Program (SAP). Policymakers need to know; whether the poor have benefited from the program or whether increased government expenditure on the social sectors has been captured by the better off. In order to do this, a measure of living standards is needed so that benefits from public investment in social services can be compared across different income groups. For this purpose, PIHS includes a measure of household consumption (expenditure on goods and services) against which many of the outcome variables are tabulated. More generally, data collected in this survey also provides a valuable data base that can also be used to carry out research on a wide range of topics and issues.

Sampling
A two-stage stratified sample design.
Selection of primary sampling Units (PSUs).
Enumeration blocks in the urban domain and mouzas/dehs/villages in rural domain have been taken as primary sampling units (PSUs). Sample PSUs from each ultimate stratum/sub-stratum have been selected by probability proportional to size (PPS) method of sampling scheme. In this survey
population of rural areas and households for urban areas have been adopted as measure of size for selecting Primary Sampling Units (PSUs) from the strata/ sub-strata formed in urban and rural subuniverses of the survey.
Selection of Secondary Sampling Units (SSUs):
Households within each sample Primary Sampling Units (PSU) have been considered as secondary sampling units (SSUs).
Survey instrument
The HIES questionnaire, revised to reflect integration with PIHS and improved data collection methods were used for the 1998-99 survey i.e. Income and Expenditure (Round- III of PIHS). The questionnaire was split into two modules in order to obtain better quality of information separately from male and female respondents by the male and female enumerators respectively. Specifically, minor changes were made in the part containing the consumption expenditure items. To obtain the better quality of data from the well-informed female respondents, the relevant parts of consumption expenditure of food and non-food items have been included in the female part of the questionnaire. Information which is considered to be answered better by the male household respondents is included in the male part of the questionnaire.
Data collection
| Start | End |
|---|---|
| 1998 | 1999 |
Before merging of HIES with PIHS in 1998-99, the data of HIES surveys was collected by male enumerators using public transport where only male household members could be interviewed. From the year 1998-99 under the PIHS the income and consumption data of the HIES Survey is now collected by mobile teams of both male and female enumerators under the day-to-day management of a team supervisor. Female enumerators in each field team interview the female household members as well as male enumerator collects the data from the male respondents
