| | Egypt Demographic and Health Survey (EDHS) (1988) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | In the 1988 Egypt Demographic and Health Survey (EDHS), 8,911 ever-married women between the ages of 15 and 49 were interviewed, in urban and rural areas of 21 of the 26 governorates of Egypt. |
 | | The Frontier Governorates (Red Sea, New Valley, Matrouh, North Sinai, and South Sinai), which represent around two percent of the total population in Egypt, were excluded from coverage because a disproportionate share of EDHS resources would have been needed to survey the dispersed population in these governorates. |
 | | By governorate, the household response rate ranged from 98 percent in Suez to 100 percent in Kafr El-Sheikh, Gharbia, Ismailia, Fayoum and Aswan while individual response rate varied from 94 percent in Aswan to 100 percent in Ismailia. |
