NSDUH 2018 Questionnaire Dwelling Unit-Level and Person Pair-Level Sampling Weight Calibration
NSDUH allows for estimating characteristics at the person level, pair level, and household or QDU level. This report describes the weight calibration methods used for the pair- and QDU-level respondents. As described in the person-level report, NSDUH is an annual survey of about 67,500 people selected from the civilian, noninstitutionalized population aged 12 or older from all 50 states and the District of Columbia. A coordinated sample design was developed for the 2014 through 2018 NSDUHs. The coordinated design facilitated 50 percent overlap in third-stage units (area segments) within each successive 2-year period from 2014 through 2018.
