Participants were randomized as follows. first, we drew a sample of potential participants from the list of individuals in the population rosters of the Niakhar HDSS who met eligibility requirements. Among these selected participants, randomization was then done using a random-number generator and was stratified by gender, age of the respondent and family composition. randomization was done in blocks of 10. Each participant then underwent one single interview with either the standard questionnaire (used in most demographic and health surveys) or our new siblings? survival calendar. There was no follow-up, all study outcomes were measured durign this single interview.
