Transcription of CoT Chapter 2 2011 - Tshwane
1 6 Chapter 2 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY INTRODUCTION In order to establish the levels of satisfaction of primarily households and businesses regarding municipal service delivery, surveys were conducted in the jurisdiction areas of the City of Tshwane (CoT). One survey was conducted amongst households, a second was conducted amongst businesses and a third amongst embassies. This Chapter elaborates on the research methodology applied during the execution of the 2011 household, business and embassy surveys that largely resembles the methodology applied in 2009.
2 The discussion will provide a basis for the scientific foundation of the study and hence the quality, validity and reliability of the data. The first part of the Chapter focuses on the research methodology used for the household satisfaction survey. This is followed by a discussion of the business survey research methodology. Finally, the Chapter focuses on the research methodology used to survey the foreign embassies. HOUSEHOLD SURVEY RESEARCH METHODOLOGY The research methodology applied to collect primary data from households residing in the CoT is explained below.
3 Survey population The survey population is defined below in terms of sample units, sample elements and the geographical demarcation of the survey area. Sample units The sample population of the survey comprised all households residing in the CoT. For purposes of selecting sample units for interviewing, the following dwelling types (sample units) were eligible for inclusion: 7 Formal dwellings such as houses, flats/apartments, townhouses/cluster houses and rooms (division within a dwelling occupied by a separate household). Informal dwellings/shacks on own stand, backyard informal dwellings/shacks and outbuildings/cottages.
4 Households occupying any of the above types of dwellings are defined as a person or a group of persons, who occupy a common dwelling (or part of it) and who provide themselves with food and other necessities of life. In other words they live together as a unit. People occupying the same dwelling, but not sharing food and other necessities, are regarded as separate households. Sample elements Heads of households were identified as the sample elements for the survey. To qualify for selection as a respondent a resident should have resided at the household address for at least six months.
5 Heads of households that were not available/willing for interviewing were substituted with his/her spouse. Survey areas The survey area comprised the following five regions of the CoT: Central Western Region North Western Region North Eastern Region Eastern Region Southern Region 8 These regions were subdivided into 76 municipal wards. Each ward was further subdivided into the following four types of areas by dwelling type: formal township area inner city suburbs informal settlement area The wards and the above strata were used for sample stratification purposes.
