Weighting - SuperCROSS
SuperCROSS can be used to tabulate against sample surveys where each record in the sample surÂvey has one or more associated weights. Population estimates are calculated by summing these weights, and estimates of means are also computed with these weights. The actual weight values are computed outside the SuperSTAR system, and are loaded into a SuperSTAR database via SuperCHANNEL.
When using a weighted database within SuperCROSS, weighting options and extra mathematical functions become available when displaying record counts. For example, you can choose between a weighted or unweighted sum of record counts, and a standard error of record summations.
