2. Microdata User Guide 1 4 Coefficients of Variation for Quantitative Estimates For quantitative estimates special tables would have to be produced to determine their sampling error Since all of the variables for the HIUS are primarily categorical in nature this has not been done As a general rule however the coefficient of variation of a quantitative total will be larger than the coefficient of variation of the corresponding category estimate i e the estimate of the number of persons contributing to the quantitative estimate If the corresponding category estimate is not releasable the quantitative estimate will not be either For example in an absence from work survey the coefficient of variation of the total number of weeks absent from work would be greater than the coefficient of variation of the corresponding proportion of paid workers with an absence Hence if the coefficient of variation of the proportion is not releasable then the coefficient of variation of the corresponding quantitative estimate will also not be releasable Coefficients of variation of such estimates can be derived as required for a specific estimate using a technique known as pseudo replication This involves dividing the records on the microdata files into subgroups or replicates and determining the variation in the estimate from replicate to replicate Users wishing to derive coefficients of variation for quantitative estimates may contact Statistics

This figure is the approximate coefficient of variation Rule 2 Estimates of Proportions or Percentages Possessing a Characteristic The coefficient of variation of an estimated proportion or percentage depends on both the size of the proportion or percentage and the size of the total upon which the proportion or percentage is based Estimated proportions or percentages are relatively more reliable than the corresponding estimates of the numerator of the proportion or percentage when the proportion or percentage is based upon a sub group of the population For example the proportion of households which have never used computer communications is more reliable than the estimated number of households which have never used computer communications Note that in the tables the CV s decline in value reading from left to right When the proportion or percentage is based upon the total population of the geographic area covered by the table the CV of the proportion or percentage is the same as the CV of the numerator of the proportion or percentage In this case Rule 1 can be used When the proportion or percentage is based upon a subset of the total population e g those in a particular sex or age group reference should be made to the proportion or percentage across the top of the table and to the numerator of the proportion or percentage down the left side of the table The intersection of the appropriate row and column gives the coeffi

User Guide otherwise released by users Unrounded estimates imply greater precision than actually exists 1 2 Sample Weighting Guidelines for Tabulation The sample design used for the HIUS was not self weighting When producing simple estimates including the production of ordinary statistical tables users must apply the proper sampling weight If proper weights are not used the estimates derived from the microdata file cannot be considered to be representative of the survey population and will not correspond to those produced by Statistics Canada Users should also note that some software packages may not allow the generation of estimates that exactly match those available from Statistics Canada because of their treatment of the weight field 1 2 1 Definitions of types of estimates Categorical vs Quantitative Before discussing how the HIUS data can be tabulated and analysed it is useful to describe the two main types of point estimates of population characteristics which can be generated from the microdata file for the HIUS Categorical Estimates Categorical estimates are estimates of the number or percentage of the surveyed population possessing certain characteristics or falling into some defined category The number of households which have never used computer communications or the proportion of households for which one or more members have used a computer at home for E mail are examples of such estimates An estimate of
