Diabetes Section (June 2002)

Sample Person Questionnaire

Description

The Diabetes section (prefix DIQ) provides personal interview data on diabetes,

use of medications, and symptoms associated with diabetes such as vision

problems, foot ulcers and sensations in the extremities.

Eligible Sample and Exclusion Criteria

All participants 1 years of age and older are eligible for the lead-in question

pertaining to history of diabetes.

Follow-up questions:

• age when first told about diabetes health condition,

• insulin use (past and present),

• duration of insulin use,

• use of oral hypoglycemic agents,

• history of retinopathy and vision troubles due to diabetes (ages 20+ years)

• foot ulcer conditions that required significant time to heal (see note) - ages 40+

years

• numbness in hands or feet (specify body parts) - age 40+ years

• painful sensations in hands or feet (specify body parts), and leg pain, including

the calves of the legs, walking - 40+ years

Protocol

The DIQ section is administered in the home by a trained household interviewer.

This information may be linked to data obtained during the health examination

component. An assessment of lower extremity disease (LED) and peripheral

neuropathy is performed in adults 40+ years of age. Please refer to the notes for

the LED component.

Analytic Notes

Question DIQ.090: “… ever had an ulcer or sore on (your/his/her) leg or foot that

took more than 4 weeks to heal?

In the Spanish language version, the duration period was initially written as “2

weeks,” but was corrected to “4 weeks” to match with the English language

version. Data users should consider the possibility that the responses to DIQ090

reflect different time periods in the Spanish language version only.

DIQ010: “… ever been told by a doctor or health professional that {you

have/{he/she/survey participant} has} diabetes or sugar diabetes?”

The questionnaire skip destination for responses “2,” “3,” “7,” and “9” were

corrected from DIQ085 to DIQ050. Because of the correction in the skip

patterns, there will be many missing values for DIQ050. All participants 1+ years

were asked if they are “… now taking insulin.”

General Information About NHANES Interview Data

Respondent Rules

In general, persons 16 years of age and older, and emancipated minors were

interviewed directly. A small number of NHANES questionnaire sections have

different respondent rules. Please review the questionnaire documentation,

questionnaires, and interviewer training manuals carefully prior to analyzing the

data.

Proxy Rules

A responsible adult provided information for sample persons under 16 years of

age and for individuals who could not self-report. The interviewer training

manuals and component-specific notes provided with these files provide

additional information about the use of respondents.

Automated Data Collection Methodology

Household Interview and Mobile Examination Center (MEC) Interview data were

recorded electronically with the use of computerized questionnaire forms that

were programmed using Blaise© software. The Household Interview

questionnaires were programmed in Blaise© and installed on laptop computers

for use in the field. The MEC interviews were also administered in an automated

format, but the interview module formats included non-Blaise© software. After

data collection was completed, the interview data files were transmitted

electronically to a central survey database system.

NHANES Spanish Language Questionnaires

All NHANES questionnaires were translated into Spanish and were administered

in computer-assisted personal interview (CAPI) format along with the English

language versions.

Household Interview Component Questionnaires:

Screener Questionnaire

Family Interview Questionnaire

Sample Person Questionnaire

Mobile Examination Center (MEC) Questionnaires:

MEC Computer-Assisted Personal Interview (MEC CAPI)

MEC Audio-Computer-Assisted Self Interview (MEC A-CASI)

The MEC Interview component is a two-part interview that addresses several

health-related topics. The personal interview portion is conducted in a private

setting by a trained interviewer. The Audio Computerized Self Administered (A-

CASI) portion of the interview was conducted in a private room in the MEC

without the interviewer being present. (The interviewers are present for a brief

“training” session dealing with the use of the personal computer and interview

system software) The A-CASI format permits the respondents to hear questions

through earphones and to read questions on a computer screen. Respondents

progress through the A-CASI questions at their own speed, as they touch the

computer screen to indicate their response. The A-CASI portion of the interview

consists of five separate sections, each of which deals with a sensitive health risk

behavior topic.

Interviewer Training:

All interviewers completed a comprehensive two-week training program. Many of

the interviewers had prior interviewing experience. A large percentage of the

household interviewers were bilingual in English and Spanish.

The MEC interviewers also received extensive interviewer training on personal

and audio-computer-assisted interview administration. This training focused on

the specific interview modules that were administered in the MEC dealing with

mental health and smoking, drug use, alcohol, and sexual behavior.

NHANES interviewer training included role-playing exercises and practice

interviews, all of which were monitored by NCHS and contractor staff. Detailed

information about the interviewer training requirements is found in the NHANES

Household Interviewer Training Manual.

Interviewer Quality Control Monitoring

Extensive pretesting was completed prior to implementing the questionnaires in

the field. A full "dress rehearsal" pilot test was conducted with the field and

examination staff to test all of the survey participant contact and interview

systems and procedures.

Several types of quality control monitoring methods were implemented to ensure

that high quality data were collected during the survey. Interviewer monitoring

was a major responsibility for NCHS and contractor staff. Interviewers were

frequently accompanied on interviews and observed to verify that the interview

protocol was administered correctly. Interviewers were retrained on survey

procedures if necessary.

NCHS encouraged the interviewers to provide constructive comments and

feedback based on their field experiences. NCHS used field staff and interviewer

feedback to improve the questionnaires and survey materials. Survey staff

debriefing and training sessions were conducted annually. NCHS and contractor

staff participated in the debriefing meetings. Interviewers were trained on new

survey content and protocol changes prior to implementation in the field.

Data collection system consistency checks

The NHANES CAPI systems have built-in edit and range checks for most

questions that have open-ended response options. When unusual or unrealistic

responses were recorded, the interviewer was alerted immediately and instructed

to verify or edit the initial response.

Data Preparation: Reviews, editing, and derived variables

During data preparation, variable frequency counts were checked, questionnaire

"skip" patterns were verified, and the reasonableness of responses to the

questions were reviewed. If changes were made to the original data, a derived

variable was created. The derived variable is essentially the final version of the

variable after editing and recoding was performed. The derived variable

nomenclature for questionnaire data includes the letter “D” in the third position of

the variable name in place of the letter “Q” for the questionnaire item that is

customarily used in NHANES data release files. The survey questionnaire

codebooks include the names and descriptions of the derived variables.

Check Items and Final Data Release Variables

The codebooks for each survey component include “check item” variables.

Check item variables were used internally at NCHS as part of the quality control

process to verify that the data collection process was correct. The check item

variables are not part of the data release files, however. Analysts would need to

re-create these variables to produce check item frequencies.
