Sample Weights Clause Samples

The Sample Weights clause defines how physical samples provided under a contract are to be weighed and recorded for the purposes of determining quantity or compliance. Typically, this clause specifies the method of weighing, the party responsible for conducting or witnessing the weighing, and how discrepancies are to be handled. For example, it may require that samples be weighed on certified scales in the presence of both parties or an independent inspector. The core function of this clause is to ensure accuracy and transparency in the measurement of samples, thereby preventing disputes over quantity or quality and allocating responsibility for any variances.
Sample Weights. The sample weights provided in this file can be used to produce estimates for the U.S. civilian, non-institutionalized population and subgroups of this population based on the sample data. Two weights are provided: a person-level weight and a family-level weight.

Sample Weights. The sample weights provided in this file can be used to produce cross-sectional estimates for the U.S. civilian, non-institutionalized population for the first half of 2008 and subgroups of this population based on the sample data. Two weights are provided: a person-level weight and a family-level weight. Because of changes in the sample design and CAPI instrument for Panel 12, estimates were computed and examined to help assess what, if any, impact these changes may have had on survey estimates. Comparison of Round 1 estimates for individual MEPS Panels 9 through 12 as well as to similar estimates from the NHIS and the Current Population Survey (CPS), indicated that it might be useful to employ an additional level of poststratification for the Panel 12 person level weights, reflecting the 2006 NHIS population distribution across age and insurance status categories. This was done as described below. For the 2008 PIT further comparisons and assessments were undertaken of both Panel 12 and Panel 13 based estimates. There was no evidence of a need to include additional poststratification adjustments along the lines of the one added to the Panel 12, Round 1 weighting process.

Sample Weights. The sample weights provided in this file can be used to produce cross-sectional estimates for the U.S. civilian, non-institutionalized population for the first half of 2007 and subgroups of this population based on the sample data. Two weights are provided: a person-level weight and a family-level weight. As mentioned earlier, because of the changes in the sample design and CAPI instrument for Panel 12, estimates were computed and examined to help assess what, if any, impact these changes may have had on survey estimates. Comparison of Round 1 estimates for individual MEPS Panels 9 through 12 as well as to similar estimates from the NHIS and the Current Population Survey (CPS), indicated that it might be useful to employ an additional level of poststratification for the Panel 12 person level weights, reflecting the 2006 NHIS population distribution across age and insurance status categories.

Related to Sample Weights

  • Weights light, moderate and heavy, have their normal everyday meanings, and are to be applied consistently, regardless of the physical characteristics of the jobholder and whether the duties are normally carried out by women or by men; or by small people or large people; or by fit or unfit people. So, a sack of cement or a sack of potatoes is a heavy weight, even if it is lifted and carried without obvious exertion by a tall, fit, young person.

  • RE-WEIGHING PRODUCT Deliveries are subject to re- weighing at the point of destination by the Authorized User. If shrinkage occurs which exceeds that normally allowable in the trade, the Authorized User shall have the option to require delivery of the difference in quantity or to reduce the payment accordingly. Such option shall be exercised in writing by the Authorized User.
