Weight Defined

In survey research, a number associated with a case or unit of analysis ; the weight is used as a measure of the relative significance of the variables of that case when making estimates for the entire population. When a probability sample is used, there is often a chance that some elements of the population are under or over represented in the sample. In order to allow more accurate estimates of a complete population, therefore, "weights" are assigned to each case and used to adjust the overall results to more closely conform to the total population.

This definition is in context to Computing and Social Science. See more contextual defintions for Weight.
