Marriage Data & Demographics

Can Weddme data represent all Pakistani marriages?

Last reviewed:

Answer

Direct answer

No. Weddme data can describe the profiles, saved preferences and activity included in a specific Weddme Research study, but it cannot automatically represent every marriage or family in Pakistan.

When a report uses Weddme data, the correct wording is “among the Weddme profiles analyzed” or similar. National claims require government statistics, nationally representative surveys or other evidence designed to represent Pakistan as a whole.
