Sampling procedure

An attempt was made to interview again all respondents of the survey of 1974 (ZA Study No. 0757, multi-stage stratified random sample). From the representative part of this first survey (2307 respondents) it was possible to complete 912 interviews in the second wave, for which identity with the respondents of the first wave was certain beyond doubt. For the special sample (461 respondents without interviewer-interviews) it was possible to complete 180 interviews in the follow-up survey. This provides for the entire sample of 2768 respondents in the first wave a sum of 1092 interviews achieved in the second wave. (For explanation of the special sample see ´special features´) The age of the respondents was 22 years and older.
