Component Description

The medical conditions section (variable name prefix MCQ) provides self-reported personal interview data on a broad range of health conditions for both children and adults. The NHANES MCQ questionnaire section is generally modeled on the “Medical Conditions” questionnaire section of the U.S. National Health Interview Survey.

Major Topics in the MCQ Section

Health Conditions / Medical History:

Family History of Disease:

Eligible Sample

The target sample for questions in this section varies by age and gender. Please review the questionnaire and codebook carefully.  Frequency counts were verified during the preparation of the file.

Interview Setting and Mode of Administration

These questions were asked, in the home, by trained interviewers using the Computer-Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI) system. The survey questionnaire is available on the NHANES website.

Quality Assurance & Quality Control

The CAPI system is programmed with built-in consistency checks to reduce data entry errors. CAPI also uses online help screens to assist interviewers in defining key terms used in the questionnaire.

Data Processing and Editing

The data were reviewed and edited for completeness, consistency, and illogical values.

Analytic Notes

A number of additional questions occur in MCQ that are logically related to other questionnaire sections or exam segments. Analysts should refer to these other NHANES sections as part of any data analysis.

Although these data were collected as part of the household questionnaire, if they are merged with the MEC exam data, exam sample weights should be used for the analyses.

Please refer to the NHANES Analytic Guidelines and the on-line NHANES Tutorial for further details on the use of sample weights and other analytic issues.
