Calculate number of clusters to sample to reach target sample size
Usage
get_n_clusters(n, n_cluster, u5, p)
Arguments
- n
Target sample size of cases for the coverage survey.
- n_cluster
Average cluster population for all ages in the specified
survey area.
- u5
Proportion (value from 0 to 1) of population that are aged 6-59
months.
- p
Prevalence (value from 0 to 1) of condition that is to be assessed.
Value
A numeric value of the estimated number of clusters to sample to
reach target sample size.
Examples
## Calculate number of villages to sample given an average village population
## of 600 persons of all ages with an under-5 population of 17% and a
## prevalence of SAM of 2% if the target sample size is 40
get_n_clusters(n = 40, n_cluster = 600, u5 = 0.17, p = 0.02)
#> [1] 20
