From 1960 through 1980 NCHS conducted five population-based, nationalhealth examination surveys. Each survey involved collecting data by directphysical examination, the taking of a medical history, and laboratory andclinical tests and measurements. Questionnaires and examination componentshave been designed to obtain and support analyses”of data on certaintargeted conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and anemia. Beginningwith the first National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES I)a nutrition component was added to obtain information on nutritional statusand dietary practices. The numbers of Hispanics in these samples were,howwer, insufficient to enable adequate estimation of their healthconditions. From 1982 through 1984 a Hispanic Health and NutritionExamination Survey (HHANES) was conducted to obtain data on the health andnutritional status of three Hispanic groups: Mexican Americans fmm Texas,Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and California; Cuban Americans from DadeCounty, Florida; and Puerto Ricans from the New York City area, includingparts of New Jersey and Connecticut.

The general structure of the HHANES sample design was similarto that ofthe previous National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. All ofthese studies have used complex, multistage, stratified, clustered-samplesof defined populations. The major difference between HHANES and theprevious surveys is that HHANES was a survey of three special subgroups ofthe population in selected areas of the United States rather than a -national probability sample. A detailed presentation of the designspecifications is found in Chapter 5 of ‘Plan and Operation of the HispanicHealth and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1982-84” (Ref. No. 1).

Data collection began with a household interview. Several questionnaireswere administered:

o A Household Screener Questionnaire (HSQ), administe~d at eachselected address, for determining household eligibility and forselecting sample persons.

o A Family Questionnaire (FQ), administered once for each familycontaining sample persons, which included sections on familyrelationships, basic demographic information for sample personsand head of family, Medicare and health insurance coverage,participation in income assistance programs, and housingcharacteristics.

o An Adult Sample Person Questionnaire (ASPQ), for persons 12through 74 years which, depending on age, included sections onhealth status measures, health services utilization, smoking (2othrough 74 years), meal program participation, and acculturation-Information.~n the use of medicines and vitamins in the past twoweeks was also obtained.

o A Child Sample Person Questionnaire (CSPQ), for sample persons 6months thruugh 11 years which included sections on a number ofhealth status issues, health care utilization, infant feedingpractices, participation in meal programs, school attendance, andlanguage use. Information on the use of medicines and vitaminsin the past tvm weeks was also obtained.

TAPE 6525, PAGE 2

At the Mobile Examination Center two questionnaires were administered andan examination performed:

o An Adult Sample Person Supplement (ASPS), for sample persons 12through 74 years, which included sections on alcohol consumption,dru@use, depression, smoking (12 through 19 years), pesticideexposure, and reproductive history.

o A Dietary Questionnaire (DQ), for persons 6 months through 74years, by which trained dietary interviewers collectedinformation about “usual” consumption habits and dietarypractices, and recorded foods consumed 24-hours prior to midnightof the interview.

o An examination which included a variety of tests and procedures.Age at interview and other factors determined which procedureswere administered to which examinees. A dentist performed adental examination and a vision test. Technicians took blood andurine specimens and administered a glucose tolerance test, X-rays, electrocardiograms, and ultrasonographs of the gallbladder.Technicians also performed hearing tests and took a variety ofbody measurements. A physician performed a medical examinationfocusing especially on the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal,neurological , and musculoskeletal systems. The physician’simpression of overall health, nutritional and weight status, andhealth care needs were also recorded. Some blood and urinespecimen analyses were performed by technicians in theexamination center; others were conducted under contract atvarious laboratories.

Because the HHANES sample is not a simple random one, it is necessary. toincorporate sample weights for proper analysis of the data. These sampleweights are a composite of individual selection probabilities, adjustmentsfor noncoverage and nonresponse, and Poststratification adjustments. TheHHANES sample veights, which are necessary for the calculation of pointestimates, are located on all data tapes in positions 184-213. Because ofthe complex sample design and the ratio adjustments used to produce thesample weights, conrnonly used methods of point and variance estimation andhypothesis testing which assume simple random sampling may give misleadingresults. In order to pruvide users with the capability of estimating thecomplex sample variances in the HHANES data, Strata and Pseudo PrimarySampling Unit (PSU) codes have been provided on all data tapes in positions214-217. These codes and the sample weights are necessary for thecalculation O“f variances.

There are computer programs available designed for variance estimation forcomplex sample designs. The balanced repeated replication approach(Ref. No. 2) is used in &REPERR and a linearization approach is used in&PSALMS tn calculate variance-covariance matrixes. Both routines areavailable within the OSIRIS IV library (Ref. No. 3). SURREGR (Ref. No. 4)and SUPERCARP (Ref. No. 5) are programs that calculate variance-covariancematrixes using a linearization approach (Ref. No. 6) (Taylor seriesexpansion). Another program, SESUDAAN (Ref. No. 7) calculates standarderrors, variances, and design effects. (Note: This version of SESUDAANshould not be used to obtain variances for totals.) SURREGR and SESUDAANare special procedures which run data under the SAS system (Ref. No. 8).

.-

TAPE 6525, PAGE 3

Even though the total number of examined persons in this survey is quitelarge, subclass analyses can lead to estimates that are unstable,particularly estimates of variances. Consequently, analyses of subclassesrequire that the user pay particular attention to the number of samplepersons in the subclass and the number of PSU’S that contain at least onesample person in the subclass. Small sample sizes, or a small number ofPSU’S used in the variance calculations, may produce unstable estimates ofthe variances.

A more complete discussion of these issues and possible analytic strategiesfor examining various hypotheses is presented in Chapter 11 of “Plan andOperation of the Hispanic Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1982-84”(Ref. No. 1) and in an earlier NCHS methodology (Series 2) publication(Ref. No. 9).

Some users, however, may not have access to the computer programs forestimating complex sample variances or may want to do their preliminaryanalyses without using them. In addition, variance estimates calculatedfmm HHANES data through use of the prograns described previously arelikely to be unstable because there were so few sample areas for eachportion of HHANES. This instability is not due to there being too fewpeople in the sample but may be due to the fact that the sample was

selected fmm relatively few areas. Therefore, the following discussion isdesigned to provide an alternative approach tm deal with the unavailabilityof software and the small number of PSU’S. The approach is based on usingaverage design effects (Ref. No. 10).

The design effect, defined as the ratio of the variance of a statistic froma complex sample to the variance of the same statistic fmm a simple randomsample of the same size, that is,

COMPLEX SAMPLE VARIANCEDESIGN EFFECT (DEFF) =

SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLE VARIANCE

is often used to show the impact of the complex sample design on variances.If the design effect is near 1, the complex sample design has little effecton the variances and the user could consider assuming simple randomsampling for the analysis.

Some illustrative design effects for HHANES data on this tape are given inthe following tables. The design effects in the tables are the average forthe age groups usually presented in NCHS Series 11 publications. If theaverage design effect for a subgroup was less than 1.0 (implying animprovement over simple random sampling), it was coded as 1.0.

The following guidelines were used in the calculation of the average designeffects:

1. Exclude all persons of non-Hispanic orgin,2. Exclude all estimates for large age ranges, such as all ages

combined for ‘all adults’, and3. Exclude all estimates where the proportion of the subpopulation

with the specific characteristic or condition was zero percent orone hundred percent.

Design effects tend to be larger when age groups are combined, just as theyare when the sexes are combined as shown in the tables. The data in thetables give the user an idea of the range in design effects for selectedresponse variables from this data tape. If a response variable is not oneshown in the tables take the range into account; it is possible that a usercould have one of the higher, rather than one of the lower, design effects.

Suppose, for example, that of the 266 Mexican-Americans males ages 35-44years in the sample, 40.1 percent drank whole milk seldom or never.

Assuming simple random sampling, the variance for the percent is calculatedby converting the percent to a proportion and using the standard formulafor the variance of a proportion,

Pqv= —

n

This variance (V) multiplied bv the desiqn effect (DEFF] Drovides anestimate of the variance from ; complexIn the example above,

;ample of the same sample size (n).

= .0009 = variance for a simple random sample

Then, multiplying by the design effect,

= (.0009) (1.7)

= .0015 = estimated variance for the complex sample

In a similar way, the complex sample variance of a mean can be determinedby multiplying the simple random sample variance of the mean by theappropriate design, effect.

The user can then proceed with estimating confidence intervals and testinghypotheses in the usual manner.

The user should recognize that this approach does not incorporate thevariance covariance matrix. In most cases, this leads to a slightoverestimate of the variance because the covariance terms, which aresubtracted in the variance of a ratio, in general are positive. Thus, in aborderline case, the null hypothesis would be less likely to be rejected(Ref. No. 11).

Alternative or better approaches may exist or be developed. Users who wantto suggest such approaches, or who want the latest information shouldcontact the Scientific and Technical Information Branch (address given inthe beginning of this documentation).

SECTION B. DATA COLLECTION ANO PROCESSING PROCEDURES

Data presented in Sections E through H and the family relationships data inSection J were collected on the Household Screener and FamilyQuestionnaires. Data presented in Sections K and L were collected on theOietary Questionnaire which was administered in the mobile examinationcenter. Completed interview schedules were reviewed -in the survey’s fieldoffices and again at the data processing center of NCHS by clericaleditnrs. The editors checked the forms for completeness, clarity, andcompliance with skip patterns, and.they coded items such as industry andoccupation. At the data processing center the questionnaires wre keyedand verified on key-to-disk data entry equipment under the control ofprograms that checked for valid codes and ranges, compliance with skippatterns, ard consistency. After being keyed, data were reedited byanalysts for reasonableness and consistency and for compliance withinstructions for sampling and questionnaire administration.

The general tape description format is Tape Position X Item X Counts. Theitem (field) may be a tape descriptor (e.g. Version Number), a sampleperson descriptor (e.g. Age at Interview), or a question (e.g. Is sampleperson covered by Medicare?). Where appropriate, data entries arepresented by codes. Frequency counts are given for each code. The countsare includd b help the user in planning analyses and in verifying thatprograms account for all data. The data source is given also {e.g., fromFamily Questionnaire). In some cases= a note is referenced. The notes .contain explanations of the item (e.g. how Poverty Index is calculated).

The questionnaire data have undergone many quality control and editingprocedures. The responses of sample persons to some questions may appearextreme or illogical. Self-reported data, especially, are subject to anumber of sources of variability, including recall and other reportingerrors. In the data clean-up process, responses that varied considerablyfrom expected were verified through direct reviewof the collection form ora copy of it. Such responses may not represent fact, but they am includedas recorded in the field. The user must determine if these responsesshould be included in analyses.

Responses to “other” and “specify” were recoded to existing categories, ifpossible. For responses that could not be recoded, new code categorieswere created if the information was deemed analytically useful. Cautionshould be used in interpreting the data from these new categories becausethere is no way of knowing which other respondents would have selected oneof the new categories if given the option.

For the dietary questionnaires there are two codes for missing information:8’s, and blanks. A code “8”, which is labeled as “blank but applicable”,is used to indicate that a sample person should have a data value for aparticular item but for varying reasons that value is unavailable. Blankswere used to follow skip patterns, i.e., when a question was not supposedto be asked or was not applicable. The “don’t know” codes (9, 99, 999)were used only when given as a printed response on the originalquestionnaire.

TAPE 6525, PAGE 8

The dietary interview in HHANES was administered to all sample persons by atrained interviewer. The dietary questionnaire included three sections - asingle 24-Hour Recall, questions on general Dietary Practices, and a FoodFrequency. To ascertain “general” dietary practices, questions were askedabout the use, type, and duration of special diets, food preparation andeating habits. The Food Frequency was used to collect specific information

“about daily and weekly food consumption over time (three months prior tothe interview). These data included foods eaten on weekends and holidays.

The questionnaire data have undergone numerous quality control and editingprocedures. During data collection, randomly ”chosen Food Frequencies weretruss-checked with the respondent’s corresponding 24-hour recall forconsistency in recall. During data processing, unusual and extreme valueswere checked and verified and inconsistencies were noted in Section N. Forquestions with an “other” category, the dietary interviewers wrote theexplanation on the dietary form. This information was recoded into new orexisting categories.

The Food Frequency Questionnaire consisted of food groups adapted fromNHANES II and was expanded to include foods coimnon to Mexican Americans,Cuban Americans and Puerto Ricans. Each of the food groups included foodswith, similar ingredients and nutrient compositions.

Copies of the questionnaires, both in English and Spanish, can be found inthe plan and operation report for HHANES (Ref. No. 1). Detailedinformation on dietary questionnaire contents or interviewing and qualitycontrol techniques is found in the Dietary Interviewer’s Instruction Manual(Ref. No. 12), interviewing procedures is contained in the householdinterviewer’s manual (Ref. No. 13) and the mobile examination centerinterviewer’s manual (Ref. No. 14).

SECTION N. NOTES

1. Family Questionnaire Missinq

A Family Questionnaire was to be completed for each eligible family in ahousehold with sample persons. Howsver, a few Family Questionnaires aremissing. Data records for sample persons in families with missingquestionnaires are flagged with a code = 1, and all family data are blank.Data records for sample persons in families with a Family Questionnaire areflagged with a code = 2.

During the Mexican-!%nerican portion of the HHANES survey, a FamilyQuestionnaire continuation booklet containing sample person information waslost for one sample person. Therefo-, the sociodemographic data for thissample person are missing. The reference person, family composition,income, residence, and household data for ,this person mre obtainedfrom another person in the household.

2. Examination Status

Not all sample persons consented to come ta a Mobile Examination Center toparticipate in the examination phase of the survey. In certain rareinstances (less than 0.12), sample persons who came tn the MobileExamination Centers did not participate in sufficient components of theexamination to be considered as “examined.” This data field containscode = 1 for those persons who participated fully in the examination phase,and code = 2 for those who did not come to the examination center or whodid not satisfactorily complete the examination.

3. Family Number

In HHANES. all household umbers who were related by blood, marriage, oradoption were considered to be one ‘family.= All sample persons in thesame family unit have the same computer-generated family unit code.

4. Head of Family

Relationship of Sample Person to Head of Family (Pos. 44-45)Each family containing sample persons has a designated ‘head offamily,” and the relationship of each sample person to the headof his or her family is coded in tape positions 44-45. The firstthree categories of this variable describe the “head” of three .different kinds of families.

o Code ’01’ identifies sample persons who lived alone (i.e.,“head= of one-person families, no unrelated indiv~duals livingin the household).

o Code ’02’ identifies sample persons who lived only withunrelated persons.

o Code ’03’ identifies sample persons who.were ‘heads” offamilies containing at least one other person (whether or notthe household included additional families unrelated to thesample person).

TAPE 6525, PAGE 66

Sociodemoqraphic Data (Pos. 100-131)This data tape includes some sociodemographic data about the headof each sample person’s family (Section F). Because there canonly be one “head” per family, the data in this section(positions 100-131) are the same for all sample persons in thesame family (i.e., with the same family number codes in positions39-43) . If the sample person is the head of his or her family,the data in positions 100-131 are the same as in thecorresponding positions in Section E.

5. Observed Race

“Race” was observed by the interviewer for all sample persons actuallyseen. Rules for classification of observed race were consistent with thoseused in the NHANE5 11 and the National Health Interview Survey at thattime. The categories were coded as follows:

klhite Includes Spanish origin persons unless they are definitelyBlack, Indian or other nonwhite.

Black Black or Negro.Other Race other than White or Black, including Japanese, Chinese,

American Indian, Korean, Eskimo.

6. National Origin or Ancestry

The value for national origin or ancestry is based on Item 2C in theHousehold Screener Questionnaire and was reported by the householdrespondent for all household members. In the Mexican-lhnerican portion ofthe survey, if “other Latin-American or other Spanish” (code 9) or“Other” (code O) was recorded and the specified origin was“Spanish-American” or “Spantsh (Spain)”, a code of 10 or 11, respectively,was assigned. In all three portions of the survey, if more than onecategory was reported, the first appropriate “Hispanic” code, if any, wasassigned (codes 1, 2, 3, 8, 10, or 11 in the Mexican-American portion;codes 6 or 7 in the Cuban-American portion; codes 4 or 5 in the PuertoRican portion). If none of these codes was recorded, the first categoryentered was coded.

8. National oriqin recode

In the HHANES, if any householdmember was identified as “Hispanic” (asdefined below), all householdmembers, regardlessof origin, were eligibleto be selected as sample persons. The national origin recode specifieswhether a sample person is considered to be “Hispanic”or “not Hispanic”for purposes of analysis. “Hispanic”is defined as:

Mexican-Americanin the Southwst portion of the survey;Cuban-Americanin the Oade County, florida portion; orPuerto Rican in the New York City area portion.

TAPE 6525, PAGE 69

The recode was assigned as follows:

A.

B.

c.

Southwest portion

1) If the original national origin or ancestry code on the HouseholdScreener Questionnaire was 1, 2, 3, 8, 10, or 11, then Nationaloriqin recode = 1;

2) If national origin or ancestry was 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, or O but theperson specified Mexican/Mexicano, Chicano, or Mexican-Americanself-identification on the Adult Sample Person Questionnaire(question MlO), or the person was the biological child of ahousehold member with Recode equal to 1 (as determined byquestions A-l/A-n on the Family Questionnaire), then Nationalorigin recode = 1;

3) In all other cases, National origin recode = 2.

Dade County, Florida portion

1) If the original national origin or ancestry code was 6 or 7, thenNational oriqin recode = 1;

2) In all other cases, National oriqin recode = 2;

New York City area portion

1)

2)

3)

If the original national origin or ancestry code was 4 or 5, thenNational oriqin recode = 1;

If national origin.or ancestry was 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, or D butthe person specified Boricuan or Puerto Rican self-identificationon the Adult Sample Person Questionnaire (question M1O), or theperson was the biological child of a household member with Recodeequal to 1 (as determined by questions A-l/A-n on the Fami~@estionnaire), then National oriqin recode = 1;

In all other cases, National oriqin recode = 2;

The national origin recode maybe used in analysis in one of tw ways:

a. Selecting on Recode = 1 will restrict analysis to “Hispanics”only. In thi~, in the Southwest portion of the survey, theweighted estimates by age and sex will approximately equal U.S.Bureau of Census population estimates of the number of MexicanAmericans and a small proportion of other Hispanics assumed to beHispano in the five Southwest States (Arizona, California,Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas) at the midpoint of the Mexican-American portion of HHANES - March 1983. The weighted estimatesof Cuban Americans represents an independent estimate of thenumber of Cuban Americans in Dade County at the midpoint, February1984. The weighted estimates of Puerto Ricans represents anindependent estimate of the number of Puerto Ricans in the samplecounties in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut at the midpointof the Puerto Rican portion - September 1984.

TAPE 6525, PAGE 70

b. Using Recode greater than O, that is, all sample persons, willinclud~panic” and ‘not Hispanic” persons and the Southwestweighted estimates by age and sex will overestimate the U.S.Bureau of the Census population estimates of Mexican Americans andother Hispanics by about 4.5 percent. In Dade County, usingrecode greater than O will increase the weighted estimates byabout 5.3 percent over that for Cuban Americans only, using recodegreater than O for the New York area will increase the weightedestimates by about 9.2 percent over that for Puerto Ricans only.

9. Industry and Occupation Code

Family Questionnaire questions B-12 through B-15 (see page 117 or 139 ofRef. No. 1 in Section C) identified sample persons 17 years old or olderwho were in the labor force working for pay at a job or business or whoworked without pay in a family business or fasm operated by a relatedmember of the household without receiving wages or salary for workperformed.

Questions B-17. through B-22 provided a full description of sample persons’current or most recent job or business. The detail asked for in thesequestions was necessary ta properly and accurately code each occupation andindustry. Interviewers were trained ta define a job as a definitearrangement for regular work for pay every veek or every month. Thisincluded arrangements for either regular part-time or regular full-timework. If a sample person was absent from his or her regular job, worked atmore than one job, was on layoff fmm a job or was looking for work duringthe two wek reference period, interviewers were trained to use thefollowing criteria to determine the job described:

a.

b.

c.

d.

e.

If a sample person ‘mrked at more than one job during the two weekreference period or operated a farm or business and also workedfor someone else, the job at which he or she worked the most hourswas described. If the sample person worked the same number ofhours at all jobs, the job at which he or she had been employedthe longest was entered. If the sample person was employed at alljobs the same length of time, the job the sample person consideredthe main job was entered.

If a sample person was absent fmm his or her regular job all ofthe two week reference period, but worked temporarily at anotherjob, the job at which the sample person actually worked wasdescribed, not the job fmm which he or she was absent.

If a sample person had a job but did not work at all during thetw week reference period, the job he or she held was described.

If a sample person was on layoff during the two week referenceperiod, the job fmm which he or she was laid off, regardless ofwhether a full-time or part-time job, was described.

If a sample person was looking for work or waiting to begin a new.iob within 30 days of the interview, the last full-time civilian .job which lasted-two consecutive weeks or more was described.

The 1980 census of population Alphabetical Index of Industries andOccupations was used in the coding of both industry and occupation.

10. Health Insurance

a.

b.

In the Health Insurance section of the Family Questionnaire, up tothree separate health insurance plans could be reported for afamily. Each sample person could have been covered by anycombination of the three, or by none at all. In order to simplifythe health insurance coverage data, the information on all reportedplans was combined to a single variable for each sample person,

whether or not the person is covered by any plan (position%: ‘ For all persons covered byat least one plan, information onthe type of coverage is then indicated: position 75 specifieswhether any of the sample person’s plans pays hospital expenses andposition 76 specifies whether any of the sample person’s plans paysdoctor’s or surgeon’s bills.

For all sample persons who were not covered by Medicare or anyhealth insurance plan, the reasons for not being covered vr?reascertained. Positions 77-7I3 contain the main or only reasonreported. For persons with one orfirst (lowst) code entered on thePsitions 79-80.

11. Per Capita Income

Per capita income was computed by dividingby the number of people in the family.

12. Poverty Index

more additional reasons, thequestionnaire was coded in

the tital combined family income

The poverty index is a ratio of two components. The numeratir is themidpoint of the Income bracket reported for each family in the FamilyQuestionnaire (E-II). Respondents wre asked ti report total combinedfamily income during the 12 months pr=eding the interview. Thedenominator is a poverty threshold which varied with the number of personsin the family, the adult/child composition of the family, the age of thereference person, and the month and the year in which the family WSinterviewed.

(Note 12 continues on next page)

TAPE 6525, PAGE 72

Poverty thresholds published in Bureau of the Census reports* are based oncalendar years and were adjusted to reflect differences caused by inflationbetween calendar years and 12 month income reference periods to whichquestion E-n referred. Average Consumer Price Indexes for all Urbanconsumers (CPI-U) for the calendar year for which the poverty thresholdswere published (see table below) and for the 12 months representing theincome reference period for the respondent were calculated. The percentagedifference between these two numbers represents the inflation between thesetwo periods and was applied to the poverty threshold appropriate for thefamily (based on the characteristics listed above). For example, for afamily interviewed in November, 1983, the 1982 poverty threshold wasupdated to reflect inflation by multiplying by the percent change in theaverage CPI-U for the 12 month reference period, which wuld have beenNovember, 1982 through October, 1983, over the calendar year Januarythrough December, 1982, in this example. To compute poverty indexes, themidpoint of the total combined family income bracket was divided by theupdated poverty threshold.

TAPE 6526, PAGE 73

Members of families with incomes equal to or greater than povertythresholds have poverty indexes equal to or greater than 1.0 and can bedescribed as “at or stove poverty”; those with incomes less than thepoverty threshold have indexes less than 1.0 and can be described as “belowpoverty”.

Poverty thresholds used were computed on a national basis only. Noattempt was made tn adjust.these thresholds for regional, State, or othervariations in the cost of living. None of the noncash public welfarebenefits such as food stamp bonuses were included in the income of the lowincome families receiving these benefits.

13. Size of Place and SMSA

Codes for size of place and SMSA were obtained from Bureau of Censussummary tape files (STFIBI.

A place is a concentration of population. Most places are incorporated ascities, towns, villages or boroughs, but others are defined by the Bureauof the Census around definite residential nuclei with dense, city-typestreet patterns, with, ideally, at least 1,000 persons per square mile.The boundaries of Census defined places may not coincide with civildivisions.

A Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA) is a large populationnucleus and nearby communities which have a high degree of economic andsocial integration with that nucleus. Generally, an SMSA includes one ormore central cities, all urbanized areas around the city or cities, and theremainder of the county or counties in which the urbanized areas arelocated. SWSAS are designated by the Office of Management and Budget.

The same place size and SMSA codes were assigned to all persons in the samesegment (for the definition of segmenti see Ref. No. 1 in Section C). In afew cases segments wre divided by place boundaries. In these cases codeswere assigned after inspecting segment maps. If the segment waspredomimntly in one place, then the place code for that place was used.If the segment ws approximately evenly divided, the code for the largerplace was used.

14. Home Heating

Questions E-3 through E-6, pertaining to the main fuel and equipment usedfor heating the home, appear to have codes which are inconsistent. It hasbeen verified that these are the codes that were recorded on the originaldocument; that is, codes that appear inconsistent were not incorrectlykeyed.

15. Recode of Open-ended Questions

Some of the “other” or “specify” responses to this question were recoded toexisting categories, if possible. For responses that couldn’t be recorded,new code categories were created if the information ws deemed analyticallyuseful . Caution should be used in interpreting the data from these newcategories because there is no way of knowing which other respondents wouldhave selected one of the new categories if given the option.

Instruction box for the dietary frequency

1) Respondent has had no diet change, recall period is the past 3months.

2) Respondent’s diet change is 2 months or more, recall period is thepast 2-3 months.

3) Respondent’s diet change is less than 2 months, recall period is 3months prior to the start of the diet.

Note: This question was cross-checked with DQ4 and DQ7 forconsistency.

Completion code

1 Satisfactory: used by the interviewer when the respondent gavesufficient information about foods usually eaten in each of thefood group categories.

2 Unsatisfactory: used when the respondent could not provideinformation about foods usually consumed in most of the food groupcategories. Generally, problems occurred with the elderly, thepoor, persons who were inebriated, and persons who were unable tomentally or physically complete the interview. Explanations forusing this code were written on the questionnaire but were notkeyed on the tape.

3 Refusal: used when either the respondent verbally refused tocooperate or the interviewer judged the respondent’s attitude asuncooperative.

8 Blank but applicable: used to indicate thatwas partially completed.

B1 ank used to indicate that the entire dietaryfrequency data are missing.

1 Satisfactory: used by the interviewer if in his/her opinion therespondent gave sufficient and reliable information about foodsconsumed during the day prior to the examination.

2 Unsatisfactory: used when the interviewer judged that theinformation from the respondent was incomplete or unreliable orthe respondent started the interview but for some reason wasunable to complete it. For example, if the respondent wasconfused, inebriated or mentally or physically unable to completethe interview, the recall was coded as unsatisfactory. Theserecall data are included only for accounting purposes and usersare strongly encouraged to exclude these data from all analyses.

3 Refusal : used when the respondent refused to answer the questionsor complete the recall .

4 Not interviewed: this code was created at NCHS if the respondentdid not receive a dietary interview.

TAPE 6525, PAGE 75

5 Breastfeeding child: this code was created at NCHS if therespondent’s recall contained human milk since it was impossibleto calculate total nutrient intakes. As a result, total nutrientintakes for these sample persons are blank.

20. Self-perceived usual consumption

This question addresses self-perceived usual consumption on the day ofrecall . Because it is a self-perception, it should be used withcaution to eliminate individuals from the analytic sample.

21. How consumption on day of recall was unusual

If the respondent said that consumption on the day of recall wasunusual, the interviewer was required to ask this question and recordthe response verbatim. There were many different ways in which therespondent could have interpreted this question. Because it is aself-perception, it should be used with caution to eliminateindividuals from the analytic sample. These responses werecategorized and coded at NCHS to the following:

Ate less; Ate more3 Other

22. Number of missinq amounts

The number of foo~s for each sample person for which the amountconsumed was not completely recorded and the nutrient content of thatfood could not be calculated and added to the summed total nutrientintake for that person. Less than 0.5 percent of sample persons hadone such food. Even fewer (0.27 percent) had two or more foods whereamounts were missing and most of the cases with two missing amountsand all cases with more than two missing amounts had an unsatisfactorycompletion code. Because missing amounts occurred infrequently, totalnutrient intakes were sunrned for persons with missing amounts. Thisvariable is included so that users can use more restrictive exclusi6ncriteria for their analysis if they wish.

23. Number of missing eatinq occasions

In order to use standardized probing for eating occasions, theinterviewers were required to ask about and enter information for eachsample person for four eating occasions--breakfast, Tunch, betweenmeals and dinner. This variable gives the number of times that aneating occasion was missing for each sample person and for which it isnot known if the interview forgot to ask about an eating occasion orif the eating occasion was skipped. All recalls with missing eatingoccasions and satisfactory completion codes were checked and appearedto be reasonable. Because missing amounts occurred infrequently,total nutrient intakes were surmned for persons with missing eatingoccasions. This variable is included so that users can use morerestrictive exclusion criteria for their analysis if they wish.

24. Number of foods reported

The number of foods reported by each sample person. This variable canbe used in conjunction with the number of missing amounts and eatingoccasions so that users can use more strict exclusion criteria fortheir analysis if they wish.

25. Nutrient Data Base

The nutrient data base for Hispanic HANES was developed for NCHS by theHuman Nutrition Information Service of the USDA and can be obtained fromNTIS. For information about the dat,a base and instructions for orderingit, call USDA at 301-436-8507 and request a copy of LISDA/NHISAdministrative Report No. 378.

The data base is a combination of two USDA survey nutrient data bases:

1) Release 2.1, used with the 1985-86 CSFII

2) Working version of Release 4.0, September 1990, used with the1987-88 NFCS

Most of the food composition values come from one of the two data baseswith the following additions/modifications:

1) Some new foods were added; mainly 20-25 Mexican American foods ormixed dishes (e.g. sopa seca, salsas, stews, cheeses).

2) Some recipes were revised because they better reflectedingredients, recipes and preparations used among MexicanAmericans.

The decision to use data from a particular survey was made on a food-specific basis with the goal of providing the best representation of foodsavailable during 1982-84. For instance, the data for eggs was drawn fromthe 1987-88 data base because better nutrient data were available duemostly to improved analytic methods. However, most of the beef data comefrom the 1985-86 data base since retail trimming practices reflected in thedata base values, were more applicable to the HHANES time frame,
