Weights and Imputations in SHARE Wave 8
2022
In this chapter, we first use the different patterns of participation to define three subsamples of primary interest for the analysis of the SHARE data collected in Wave 8: CAPI, CATI and CAPI & CATI. We then describe the procedure used to construct calibrated cross-sectional and longitudinal weights for handling, respectively, problems of unit non-response and attrition in the CAPI subsample. Afterwards, we describe the model used to obtain multiple imputations of the missing values due to item non-response in the CAPI data.
Sampling Design in SHARE Wave 8 and Recruitment of Refreshment Samples until the Suspension of Fieldwork
2022
The aim of the SHARE survey design is to be able to draw inferences about the population of people aged 50 years or older across countries by using probability-based sampling. This chapter documents the sampling design adopted in the eighth wave of SHARE that had to be suspended due to COVID-19 in March 2020. Starting with a definition of the SHARE target population, we describe the protocol for harmonizing and documenting the sampling procedure and present the sampling frames used by the countries that recruited a baseline or refreshment sample in Wave 8. We then discuss some important aspects of the SHARE sampling designs, such as stratification, clustering, variation in selection probabi…
