| Additional information regarding sample selection. | The sampling method consisted of randomly selecting a sample of individual services from the centres in the area over a given period, and surveying the people who received them. These services therefore had to be named, to sample them and deduce the probability of selection for the people selected, taking into account the use of multiple services in the sample base. |
| Database objective | |
| Main objective | To study the conditions under which surveys of this type are conducted and extended on a larger scale, and to prepare recommendations for the purpose of achieving a better inclusion of homeless people in the general census of the population, as well as in surveys that are regularly carried out only among those with housing. A first examination of the processes leading to homelessness was also expected. |
