Two types of errors affect the quality of survey data; sampling and non sampling errors. The sampling errors are measurable, however the non-sampling errors could not be determined easily due to the diversity of sources (e.g. the interviewers, respondent, editor, data entry operator... etc).
However, several measures were adopted to minimize the effects of these errors. The interviewers, editors and coders had undergone intensive training and were provided with fieldwork manuals to consult when facing any problem.
The data entry program was designed in a way that allows error detection and correction. This applies particularly to logical errors that might not be discovered before data entry operations. A consistency check was also performed to assure accuracy after data entry.
