"This third edition of the book that has become the standard reference for the design and implementation of health surveys draws heavily on the most recent methodological research on survey design in general and the rich storehouse of insights and implications provided by cognitive research on question and questionnaire design in particular. A total survey error framework is presented as a useful compass for charting the dangerous waters between the Scylla and Charybdis of systematic and random errors that inevitably accompany the survey design enterprise. In addition, three new studies based on national, international, and state and local surveys the UNICEF Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys, California Health Interview Survey, and National Dental Malpractice Survey will be used to illustrate the range of design alternatives available at each stage of developing a survey and what might be a sound basis for choosing among them."--Publisher description (LoC).   aHealth surveys.  aHealth surveysxStatistical methods.  aHealth Surveys.   aResearch Design.   aData Collection  amethods.  aCornelius, Llewellyn Joseph, d1959-  2lcccBOOKhRA 408.5 i.A33 2006  c19322d19322  00102lcc40708BooksaAUA.1bAUA.1cGSd2018-02-11eBought by JTLg47.18hAUA22302oRA 408.5 .A33 2006pAUA22302r2018-02-11 00:00:00v47.18w2018-02-11yBOOK
