PROJECT OVERVIEW


Title

Pilot study of the Flexible Consumer Behavior Survey (FCBS) phone follow up module for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Protocol Summary

In preparation for the 2007 field implementation, ERS and NCHS plan to conduct a pilot study to evaluate the operational feasibility of the phone follow up element of the FCBS module within the context of the NHANES Integrated Survey Information System (ISIS). The pilot study will occur from September to November 2006 with participants from one of the NHANES survey locations. The pilot study will integrate the new phone follow up questionnaire with the existing NHANES ISIS. It will be conducted following the day 2 dietary phone follow up interview. Results from the pilot study will be used to assess this new instrument’s compatibility with the NHANES’ ISIS.


The FCBS module was cognitively tested by Westat, Inc. under the contract with NCHS from March through April 2006 with 42 volunteer participants aged 18 years and over (20 in English and 22 in Spanish). The results from the test were used to assess and improve the instrument and determine the feasibility of inclusion in NHANES. The Cognitive Testing Report is 82 pages long and is not included due to its length however it can be provided by request.


Investigators and Collaborators

Clifford L. Johnson, M.S.P.H. is the Principal Investigator of this proposed pilot study, with Vicki L. Burt, Sc.M., Chia-Yih Wang, Ph.D. and Ana Chavez, MS, RD as the Co-Investigators. Collaborators from ERS, USDA include Jay Variyam, Ph.D. and Biing-Hwan Lin, Ph.D. (Co-Project Officers). Westat, Inc. will administer this module under contract to NCHS. All investigators and collaborators have signed the NCHS Confidentiality Agreement.


Funding Sources

The cost of this pilot study and data collection will be covered by an ERS interagency agreement with NCHS.


INTRODUCTION

The Flexible Consumer Behavior Survey (FCBS) module was developed in collaboration with the Economic Research Service (ERS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) for inclusion in the future NHANES. The module is designed to collect information on people’s knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs toward nutrition and food choices. Once integrated into the survey, data collected with this module can be linked to other NHANES components, allowing researchers to explore relationships between dietary intakes as well as nutritional biomarkers of the individuals and their knowledge, attitudes and perceptions. Assessing such linkages and how the linkages change over time in various population subgroups will provide critical information not only to public health experts and policymakers, but to the food industry and the growing food-away-from-home sector as well. Information gathered by the FCBS will contribute to the major NHANES objectives of studying the relationship between diet, nutrition and health, as well as monitoring trends in risk behaviors and the prevalence of risk factors in population subgroups.


Background and Justification

The development of the FCBS module started in 2005 and was based on a theoretical framework linking attitudes, knowledge, and health behaviors with nutritional choices and health outcomes. A broad coalition of federal agencies interested in behavioral aspects of food consumption including the Economic Research Service, Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion, Food and Drug Administration, and the National Cancer Institute have been involved in the development of this module.

Questions included in the FCBS module were cognitively tested by Westat, Inc. under the contract with NCHS from March through April 2006 with 42 volunteer participants aged 18 years and over (20 in English and 22 in Spanish). An in-depth interview was given to each participant to collect his/her responses to the questionnaire, including the participant’s understanding of the wording of the questions and the decision process the participant went through in answering these questions. The results from the test were used to assess and improve the instrument and determine the feasibility of inclusion in NHANES. Based on observations, some questions were re-worded to make them simpler and make easier to understand. It was also noted that many volunteers had not heard of or were not very familiar with MyPyramid1 and responded to knowledge questions based on their habits versus MyPyramid recommendations therefore responses to these questions will be further examined in this pilot. The Cognitive Testing Report is 82 pages long and is not included due to its length however it can be provided by request.



The FCBS module comprises two elements: 1) a core set of questions designed to be repeated in each 2 year cycle of NHANES; and 2) a supplementary module with specific focus that is intended to be cycled periodically during 2 year NHANES cycles. The core set of the FCBS module is designed to be included as part of the NHANES household questionnaire. The supplementary module of the FCBS will be administered as a 20 minute telephone interview. This proposed pilot study is designed to evaluate the operational feasibility of this phone interview element of the FCBS module. The major objectives of the pilot study are as follows:


Objectives

  • To assess how well the phone interview module fits in to the existing NHANES ISIS system.

  • To assess the process of proxy identification, scheduling, and generation of checks within ISIS.

PROCEDURES AND METHODS

To comply with lead time required for field implementation in NHANES 2007, this pilot study will be conducted from September 23 to November 20, 2006 in one of the NHANES survey locations.

Study Protocol

The pilot study will be comprised of a sample of approximately 350 NHANES participants completing a dietary recall in the mobile exam center. To help us test the module in Spanish, we plan to collect at least 40 interviews in Spanish.


The FCBS pilot study will be administered over the telephone after the day 2 dietary phone follow up. (Note: The day 2 dietary interviews are conducted by telephone 3-10 days after the health examination component.) Participants ages 1 year and older completing a dietary recall in the mobile exam center will be eligible for the FCBS pilot study. After the day 2 dietary phone follow up is administered, participants will be asked if they would like to continue with the FCBS interview or schedule for another day or time (See scripts in Attachment C). There are different respondent rules for the FCBS phone follow up questionnaire: participants age 16 years and older will answer the questions for themselves and a proxy will respond for those ages 1-15 years old. Because the day 2 dietary interview is completed with a proxy for ages 1-11 and participants age 12-15 years complete their own dietary recall, two separate sets of age specific screener questions will be used to identify the proxy for the FCBS pilot study (Attachment D, pages 33-36).


For ages 1-11 years, if the day 2 dietary interview proxy is a NHANES participant, the proxy’s pilot study data will be linked to all children ages 1-15 years in the home and no proxy screening questions will be asked. No additional FCBS interview will be scheduled for the children (see scripts and scenarios in Attachment C). When the day 2 dietary proxy is not a NHANES participant, screener questions will be asked to determine the main meal planner in the home. If the identified main meal planner is a NHANES participant, their pilot study data will be linked to all children age 1-15 years in the home. No additional FCBS interview will be scheduled. If the main meal planner is not a NHANES participant, the day 2 dietary proxy will be the participant’s proxy for the FCBS. For participants ages 12-15 yeas, the proxy screener questions will be asked to determine if the main meal planner was a survey participant. If the main meal planner was not a participant, the FCBS proxy will be the adult who signed the household informed consent. The name of this proxy will be displayed in the module for the interviewer. When the proxy is not available to be the FCBS proxy, such as they are no longer living with the family or are out of the country, ISIS will select a second proxy for the FCBS pilot study and verbal consent will be obtained. The pilot study will give us insight as to how often the proxy of children age 1-15 years is the main meal planner.


There may be multiple persons from one home taking part in the FCBS pilot study. All adult NHANES participants age 16 years and older who complete a day 2 dietary interview will be eligible to participate in the FCBS pilot study. Therefore when there are multiple adults in the family who complete a dietary interview, there will be multiple adult FCBS pilot study interviews. In a household with several eligible children ages 1-15 years, the data from the FCBS pilot study of one adult participant or proxy will be linked to all eligible children in the home. The adult participant or proxy whose FCBS data will be linked to the eligible children will be determined after the day 2 dietary interview for the first child is completed.


$30 (in check) will be mailed to the respondent as a token of appreciation.


All the forms and instruments used in the pilot test will be available in English and Spanish languages. Spanish translation will be done following a standardized translation process used in the NHANES protocol. It is a forward translation process with multiple levels of review and adjudication, including a final review done by a certified translator.


Participant Burden for Respondents

The respondent burden is estimated to be 20 minutes per interview. Because we are not testing response rates, there will be no non-response conversion efforts for the FCBS pilot study.


Training for Interviewers

The pilot study interviews will be conducted by staff in the Westat telephone center under contract with NCHS. The NCHS investigators and contractor staff will train the interviewers on study protocol and data collection. The training will cover study protocol and consent procedures, general interviewing techniques, and will address confidentiality issues. The training will reinforce the procedures for the processing and storing of confidential data. The terms of the contract require that the contractor and research collaborators guarantee that they will not tabulate, analyze, release or use the data without prior written approval of the NCHS project officer and the NCHS Confidentiality Officer. In addition, all tabulations and reports generated from approved data uses will be released solely to the NCHS project officer or designee. All data including data sets, and tables remaining in the custody of the contractor at the close of the contract shall be returned to the custody of the responsible NCHS project officer or designee, and no copies (either preliminary, interim or final) shall be maintained by the contractor.


Data Analysis

Westat staff in collaboration with NCHS investigators will evaluate the results of the pilot study. The evaluation will focus on operational feasibility, response rates, and data quality. An evaluation report will detail specific recommendations and potential solutions for incorporating the FCBS phone interview module protocol in NHANES.



Protection of Human Subjects

The investigators have used the guidance in 45 CFR 46.116 (a) for developing the information provided to all potential study participants. Interviewers will be instructed to ensure that the information is understood and that the person agrees to participate in the survey before proceeding. The NHANES 2006 Health Measurements List (provided as part of the consent process) includes a section entitled “After your visit to the NHANES mobile center” and proposed text for the pilot study of the FCBS module (see Attachment A). The Consent Form will be signed if the person agrees to participate. Parental consent for the component will be obtained for minors who are selected. Non-documented informed consent for proxies who did not sign the household informed consent will be obtained over the telephone before beginning the FCBS pilot study (see Attachment B). Informed consent/permission/assent forms and non-documented informed consent scripts will make clear that participation is voluntary (see Attachments A and B).




Justification for Using Vulnerable Populations

Survey participants ages 16-17 years will answer for themselves because their data are important for understanding nutrition attitudes and knowledge which can be linked with nutritional choices and health outcomes. Mentally impaired individuals will not be included in this proposed pilot study. There is no reason to exclude pregnant women because there is no contraindication.


Risks

There is no more than minimal risk associated with this protocol pilot study for the FCBS module.


Confidentiality Measures

The protection of individual privacy and confidentiality of personal information is a primary concern to all the programs of NCHS. This test will be conducted with the strongest possible assurances of confidentiality. These include the protections of the Privacy Act of 1974 and an even more rigorous protection of all NCHS data outlined in Section 308(d) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 242m).


To insure the awareness of confidentiality standards, all the interviewers working on data collection will be required to watch the NCHS confidentiality training video, and sign the NCHS non-disclosure affidavit. All collaborators will be given the minimal amount of data required to conduct studies and monitor quality control for purposes of the study. A condition for sharing confidential data is for the collaborator to sign a Designated Agent Authority Agreement


Justification for Waiver of Documentation of Informed Consent

As stated earlier, when an adult proxy for participants ages 12-15 years old who signed the informed consent in the household is not available, non-documented informed consent will be obtained before beginning the FCBS pilot study interview. Because there is no risk of harm to participants resulting from the proposed phone FCBS pilot study and an informed non-documented consent can be obtained over the telephone before the interview, a waiver for signed informed consent is requested. The interviewer will inform the proxy that participation is voluntary and they may choose not to answer any question (see Attachment B).

The proxy for the FCBS pilot interview will be identified by ISIS after the first child (1-15 years) in the household has a completed day 2 dietary phone interview. Once the proxy is identified, the proxy screener questions will not appear for other children 1-15 years old in the home. Different scenarios are described below.



Question CBQ.new20 will be displayed and the interviewer will enter the information for the day 2 dietary interview proxy without asking the participant the question. Relationship to SP and age data will be imported from Household questionnaire and displayed. When “Non-SP” is selected, the Name and Relationship fields will be enabled for interviewer to enter.



CBQ.new20 Who is the proxy?

SP 1 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 2 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 3 Name Display relationship Display Age

Non-SP (Name: ___________ Relationship to SP: ______)



  1. If the proxy is a NHANES participant, the data for the FCBS phone interview for this adult will be linked to all participants 1-15 years old in the home. No additional FCBS pilot phone interview is necessary and screener questions will not appear after the day 2 dietary interviews for any other children ages 1-15 in the home. The interviewer will thank the respondent and end the interview.




  1. If the day 2 dietary proxy is not a survey participant, continue with the script and questions below to identify the main meal planner. In questions CBQ.new21-CBQ.new24, data for the Relationship and Age will be imported from the Household questionnaire and displayed. When “Non-SP” is selected, the Name and Relationship fields will be enabled for the interviewer to enter.



Thank you for completing the dietary interview. I have just a few more questions.



CBQ.new21 Who is the person who does most of the planning or preparing of meals in your family?

SP 1 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 2 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 3 Name Display relationship Display Age

Non-SP (Name: ___________ Relationship to SP: ______)



CBQ.new22 {Do you/Does he/she} share in the planning or preparing of meals with someone else?

No

SP 1 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 2 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 3 Name Display relationship Display Age

Non-SP (Name: ___________ Relationship to SP: ______)




CBQ.new23 Who is the person who does most of the shopping for food in your family?

SP 1 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 2 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 3 Name Display relationship Display Age

Non-SP (Name: ___________ Relationship to SP: ______)



CBQ.new24 {Do you/Does he/she} share in the shopping for food with someone else?

No

SP 1 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 2 Name Display relationship Display Age

SP 3 Name Display relationship Display Age

Non-SP (Name: ___________ Relationship to SP: ______)



3. If the identified meal planner is a participant, their FCBS phone interview data will be linked to all children 1-15 years old in the home. The statement “No additional FCBS phone interview is necessary” will be displayed and the interviewer will simply thank the person and end the interview.



  1. If the identified main meal planner is not a survey participant, the instrument will be programmed to select the day 2 dietary proxy as the proxy for the FCBS phone interview. The name of the proxy will be displayed, “{Day 2 Dietary Proxy Name} will be FCBS proxy”.


A. The following script will be read:


“Your participation is valuable to us and we would like to ask a few more questions about food and food shopping. {There is only one interview for all/both your children that/This interview} will take about 20 minutes and you will receive an additional check for $30 as a token of appreciation. Is now a good time? (When is the best time to reach you?)



B. If participant agrees to continue at that time, proceed with FCBS pilot phone interview.



C. If the current time is not convenient, schedule for another day or time. When calling for the scheduled FCBS phone interview, the following script will be read:



“Hello, Mr./Ms. ______, my name is ______ . I’m calling for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to ask some questions about food and food shopping. The interview will take about 20 minutes and you will receive a check for $30 as a token of appreciation. Everything you say will be kept confidential. Let’s begin.”



Proceed with FCBS pilot interview.



  1. As stated earlier, the proxy selection for the FCBS pilot study will occur after the first day 2 dietary interview for a child 1-15 years old in the household. There will be no script and no proxy questions for all subsequent children in the household.



C. Proxy for examinees 12-15 years old

Participants 12-15 years old complete their own day 2 dietary interview, although rarely a proxy is used. (Note, recall that the proxy for the FCBS pilot interview will be identified by ISIS after the first child [ages 1-15 years] in the household has a completed day 2 dietary phone interview. Once the proxy is identified, the proxy screener questions will not appear for other children ages 1-15 years old in the home and the FCBS data from an adult participant or proxy is linked to all children in the home.)



  1. If the day 2 dietary interview was completed by an adult SP proxy, link the proxy’s FCBS pilot interview data to all participants 1-15 years old in the home. Otherwise, continue with proxy selection steps below.

  2. If the 12-15 year old answered the dietary interview for themselves, the screener questions will be asked to determine if the FCBS pilot study data from an adult participant will be linked or a proxy interview will be conducted.



“Thank you for completing the dietary interview. I have just a few more questions.”

(CBQ.new25: Interviewer will enter response without asking; question refers to day 2 dietary respondent. Relationship to SP and age will be imported from Household questionnaire. When “Non-SP” is selected, the Name and Relationship fields will be enabled.)

Non-SP (Name: ___________ Relationship to SP: ______)





  1. Data from an adult FCBS pilot interview will be linked to children 1-15 years in the home if any of the following are a NHANES participant: a.) the main meal planner (CBQ.new21); b.) the person who shares in the planning or preparing of meals (CBQ.new22); c.) the person who does most of the food shopping (CBQ.new23); d.) the person who shares in the food shopping (CBQ.new24). No additional FCBS pilot interview is necessary and screener questions will not appear for other children ages 1-15 years in the home. The interviewer will simply thank the respondent and end the interview. (The same criteria are not applied to the 1-11 year olds because we expect the day 2 dietary proxy will be either the main person responsible for or shares the responsibility of planning meals or food shopping in the household.)

  1. If the main meal planner or shopper is not a NHANES participant, the module will be programmed to identify and display the name of the proxy who signed the informed consent in the household. This person will be the FCBS pilot study proxy. The screener questions will not be displayed for other children 1-15 years old in the household.



“{Name of proxy who signed household consent} will be the FCBS proxy.”



A. The interviewer will ask to speak with the proxy:



“Is Mr./Ms. ______ home? May I speak with him/her?”



B. If the proxy is not home, schedule an appointment for another day or time using the following script:



I would like to call Mr./Ms. ____ to ask a few more questions about food shopping. When is the best time to reach him/her?”



C. When calling for the scheduled FCBS pilot interview or if the proxy is home the following script will be read:

“Hello, Mr./Ms. ______, my name is ______ . I’m with the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and would like to ask you some questions about food and food shopping. We are conducting this interview with an adult who lives with child SP name. This interview will take about 20 minutes and you will receive a check for $30 as a token of appreciation. Is now a good time? (When is the best time to reach you?)”



D. If the current time is convenient for the proxy, proceed with the FCBS pilot interview.



E. If current time is not convenient, schedule for another day or time. When calling for the scheduled FCBS phone interview, the following script will be read:



“Hello, Mr./Ms. ______, my name is ______ . I’m calling for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to ask some questions about food and food shopping. The interview will take about 20 minutes and you will receive an additional check for $30 as a token of appreciation. Everything you say will be kept confidential.”

  1. If the proxy whose name is displayed (proxy who signed the household consent) no longer lives with the family, is out of the country, or will not be available in the following week, the interviewer will select “Proxy not available”. The module will then allow selection of another proxy and informed non-documented consent will be obtained for the non-SP proxy before beginning the FCBS pilot study interview.



Example of display:

“{Name of proxy who signed household consent} will be the FCBS proxy.”

□ Proxy not available



The module will be programmed to list the next suggested proxy in order of priority (see example of scenario below):

Select FCBS Proxy:

□ Name of main meal planner

□ Name of person who shares in the meal planning

□ Name of person who does most of the shopping of food

□ Name of person who shares in the shopping of food

□ Other adult in household



Example of Scenario:

For example, a household may have an 8 year old and 12 year old as the participants. Their mom signed the informed consent in the household, their dad is the main meal planner, and their grandmother lives with them but is not a participant and not a meal planner or shopper. The 12 year old completed the day 2 dietary phone interview first. Although the dad is the main meal planner, because he is not a participant, the mom is the identified proxy since she signed the informed consent in the household. However, she is scheduled to have surgery and be in the hospital for a week therefore the dad (main meal planner) will be the FCBS proxy. The module will list him as the first priority for the suggested proxy.



Select FCBS Proxy:

□ Name of dad Display relationship



A. Once the proxy is selected, the introduction screen will be displayed:



“Hello, Mr./Ms. ______, my name is ______ . I’m with the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and would like to ask you some questions about food and food shopping. We are conducting this interview with an adult who lives with child SP name. The interview will take about 20 minutes and you will receive a check for $30 as a token of appreciation. Is now a good time? (When is the best time to reach you?)”



B. If the current time is convenient and informed consent is required, the following script will be read:



Before we begin, I’d like you to know that participating in this interview is voluntary. You may choose not to answer any question you don’t want to answer or stop at any time. We are required by federal laws to keep your answers strictly private. I can describe these laws if you want. They guarantee that your answers will be used only for research. Your name will not be used. Also, in order to review my work, my supervisor may listen as I ask the questions. I’d like to continue now unless you have any questions.”


READ IF NECESSARY: The Public Health Service Act is Volume 42 of the US Code, Section 242k. The collection of information in this survey is authorized by Section 306 of this Act. The confidentiality of your responses is assured by Section 308d of this Act and by the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act.



Continue with the FCBS pilot interview.



C. If the current time is not convenient, schedule for another day or time. When calling for the scheduled FCBS pilot study interview, the following script will be read:



Hello, Mr./Mrs. ______, my name is ______ . I’m calling for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to ask some questions about food and food shopping. The interview will take about 20 minutes and you will receive a check for $30 as a token of appreciation. I’d like you to know that participating in this interview is voluntary. You may choose not to answer any question you don’t want to answer or stop at any time. We are required by federal laws to keep your answers strictly private. I can describe these laws if you want.

Section II. Food Away From Home Attitudes (FAFH)


Proposed questions: Two set of questions on the relative importance of various factors that influence people’s decision to (a) eat at a fast-food or pizza place and (b) dine at a sit-down/table service restaurant as opposed to eating at home.



Target: SP’s 1+ (family level interview for 1-15 years)

Question Source: New


Justification: What we want to measure are the relative importance consumers attach to various factors that influence their decision to (a) dine at a fast-food restaurant versus eating at home and (b) dine at a sit-down/table service restaurant as opposed to eating at home. (By comparing both choices vis-a-vis the option of dining at home, we are implicitly comparing them with each other as well). These questions will help us model consumer decision making in a logical sequence involving the food at home versus FAFH and choice of foods/ingredients within food at home.




Proposed questions: Three questions on nutrition information labeled for foods served at fast food restaurant and three questions on nutrition information labeled for foods served at a sit-down/table service restaurant.


Target: SP’s 1+ (family level interview for 1-15 years)



CBQ.new32 The last time when you ate out or bought food at a fast-food or pizza place, did you see nutrition or health information about any foods on the menu?

Justification: These new questions will provide an estimate of individuals who seek out nutrition information in a FAFH setting. This could be useful for informing FAFH labeling policy debate, and would be an intermediate link between FAFH, diet quality, and obesity. This would be the first such estimate of FAFH nutrition information use and would complement label use information for foods purchased at stores.

Justification: These questions help track the trend in awareness of MyPyramid and gathers more specific knowledge of recommended intakes of each food group. Similar questions about knowledge of serving sizes were proposed in the 2005-06 DBQ but were dropped because the concept of “serving” is no longer used in the MyPyramid.


  1. Calories Knowledge


Proposed questions: Adding a question on respondent’s knowledge of required calorie intake.

Question Source: New


Justification: Knowledge of required intake is a direct measure of respondent’s awareness of Dietary Guidelines and MyPyramid recommendations. Asking CBQ.new53 will give a direct estimate of what people think their intake ought to be, so we can compare their actual intake (estimated from dietary recall) with this norm.



  1. Other Nutrition Knowledge/Attitude Questions


Proposed questions: Move one question from household DBQ to CBQ phone follow up and add 1 new question on attitudes toward health and diet.


Target: DBQ.890 - SPs 1+ (family level interview for 1-15 years); CBQ.new54 - SPs 16+

Question Source: DBQ was moved from the household DBQ section. CBQ.new54 is modified from a question in the 1994-96 DHKS.


Justification: Based on previous USDA’s data, DBQ.890, the “gene theory” question is very useful in predicting diet quality, BMI, and accuracy of self-assessed weight (especially in differences between men and women). This question would also be a complement to NHANES questions on whether and how individuals are attempting to lose weight. CBQ.new54 will help verify the validity of responses to the self-assessed diet quality question (DBQ.700 included in the household DBQ section).




Proposed questions: adding 5 questions on the relative importance of various factors that influence people’s decision to buy foods at a grocery store or supermarket.


Target: SPs 1+ (family level interview for 1-15 years)

Justification: Relative importance of these factors is useful for understanding dietary choices and predicating diet quality of individuals.

Section IV. Food Label


Proposed questions: Currently, 4 questions are asked about use of Nutrition Facts panel, ingredients, serving size, and health claim (DBQ.750 - DBQ.780). Move these questions from DBQ to CBQ phone follow-up interview.

Add one new question on the use of “% Daily value” on food labels.

Question Source: New, similar format as existing questions.


Justification: The output of this question could be used to inform our estimation of predictive microbial growth, which will consequently be incorporated with dose-response relationships to estimate risk of a specific pathogen in food commodities. Further, the expiration date information will inform FSIS as to consumer practices regarding food safety issues. For example, generally consumers purchase and handle foods based on their own judgment from appearance, smell, and texture of food items, however, the information on a certain number of days/weeks after expiration date for a specific food item will provide consumers the knowledge about how risky the food items would be, i.e., how pathogens can grow at various temperature conditions and during the storage time at retail and/or home, thus how badly the consumer can get sick when the pathogen contaminated foods are consumed.

Question Source: CBQ.new63 - CBQ.new67 - DHKS 1994-96; CBQ.new68 is new.


Justification: These questions would be useful in assessing the relative label use in these product categories. Analysis of 1994-96 DHKS shows that label use is most prevalent in breakfast cereals purchase, followed by salad dressings. These questions will be useful in analyzing the impact of label use on the consumption of these specific product categories as well as to estimate effect of category-specific label use on nutrient intakes. ERS used the 1994-96 DHKS question on raw meat and poultry (item e above) in an analysis of label use effects that was provided to FSIS. If FSIS’s raw meat and poultry labeling rule is implemented, this question would be useful in evaluation. Unpublished analysis by ERS shows that breakfast cereal label use has significant impact on intakes of some nutrients and vitamins for which this category is the major food source. CNPP has requested a version of this question with respect to bread (CBQ.new68).

Overview of the FCBS


The primary goal of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey is to assess the health and nutritional status of adults and children in the United States. One of the major objectives to accomplish that goal is to study the relationship of diet, nutrition and health. NHANES is currently the only national survey that includes dietary intake data and objective health and nutritional status data. Prior to 1996 the Economic Research Service (ERS) relied on the Continuing Survey of Food Intake by Individuals (CSFII) as a vehicle to collect data on dietary knowledge and attitudes and food label use via the Diet and Health Knowledge Survey (DHKS). It is an important goal for ERS to understand the relationship between dietary knowledge and attitudes, food label use, dietary intake, food assistance program participation and nutritional status and outcomes.


To resume collecting data on these topics ERS proposed adding a supplemental survey to the NHANES called the Flexible Consumer Behavior Survey.


Topics covered


The questions cover seven broad topic areas. They have been placed in the NHANES questionnaires where the DHANES program feels they can best be answered. The majority of the questions are in the telephone interview that is being pilot tested. A brief summary of each topic area follows.


1. Income and assets.

Food assistance program eligibility is frequently based on monthly income and cash assets. In the case of the Food Stamp Program (FSP) there are specific levels of assets that make an applicant ineligible for the program. Items have been added to the Income Questionnaire on monthly income and cash assets.

2. Food expenditure and time use


The food expenditure questions provide very fundamental economic information that will be helpful in addressing current policy issues. Including these questions is explicitly recommended in the National Research Council report--Improving Data to Analyze Food and Nutrition Policy. These questions have been extensively researched by economists and their validity and usefulness have been confirmed.


A few key indicators of time allocation are required in models that explain dietary behavior. For example items such as the time required to get to a grocery store will be correlated with consumption decisions, especially among low-income individuals and food stamp participants. Additionally, key indicators of a family’s time investment in food preparation will be analyzed in conjunction with NHANES’ dietary and health data


  1. Food assistance programs - Food Stamp and WIC


The actual date a household received their last Food Stamp benefit will be collected. This date is critical for understanding dietary behavior of food stamp recipients over the month. Previous research has indicated that there is a monthly cycle of food consumption behavior for different levels of benefits and the information may also be useful in relating food stamp program participation with food insecurity. These data will allow analysis of the NHANES dietary recall data knowing when the Food Stamp benefits were last received.


The unit of interest for Food Stamp analysis is the household therefore attempts to identify the number of household residents counted in the benefit has been dropped. Cognitive testing indicated that this information could only be collected with extensive probing of household respondents. In addition to current and recent FSP participation we will collect information as to whether a household has ever received benefits. This was added both as a gate question to other FSP questions and as an item of interest for future linkage efforts of NHANES data to FSP administrative records.


In 2007, the NHANES WIC questions will be asked up through age 11. A goal of the WIC program is to provide nutritious foods during a critical period of growth and development. These questions will provide information about the extent of past WIC participation during important periods in early childhood—prenatal, infancy, and early childhood. The proposed questions will help assess any link between WIC participation during these growth periods and diet and health outcomes later in the child’s life. To our knowledge, this would make the NHANES the only national survey with the capability to link extensive diet and health information on older children with prior WIC participation.


4. Self-assessed diet quality and habits


Several of these questions have been on NHANES in past years and will continue. The primary new area of content will be identifying whether an individual is the shopper and planner of meals for the family. Much of the information on knowledge and attitudes will be asked of that individual to link to the children’s data because it is the planner/preparer’s knowledge and attitudes that determine what the child consumes.


5. Use of prepared foods/ food away from home


There is much concern that the increasing use of prepared foods and eating out may be fueling the obesity epidemic in the U.S. Information about take-out, restaurant dining, and prepared food from markets have been added to provide greater detail on the extent of these behaviors and their association with food consumption and health measures.


6. Knowledge and attitudes


A primary emphasis for this area of research is to collect information on attitudes about price, taste, convenience and nutrition in buying specific food items in the grocery store and in restaurants. Additionally, questions are asked about knowledge of MyPyramid and the advice offered by MyPyramid.


  1. Nutrition label use


Respondents are asked about use of the information on the Food Label. That is, how often they use specific information in deciding to purchase food.

FCBS question placement on the NHANES


Core: Household interview (10 minutes)

Part A: Family level questions

  • 22 new questions proposed

  • All questions proposed in this section are administered for each CPS family


Part B: Sample person questions

  • 18 questions included (14 newly proposed questions, 4 current questions)


Follow-up: Telephone Interview (20 minutes)

  • 55 questions included (51 newly proposed questions, 4 current questions)

  • Adult 16 years and older ask all questions at SP level

  • Children 1-15 years ask a subset of questions at family level

      • The proxy for the 24-hour dietary phone interview will be the primary proxy

      • Identify whether the proxy is also a SP at the end of PFU dietary recall

        • If the primary proxy is also a SP, this person’s responses to the subset of questions will be directly linked to the children at the same family, no additional FCBS interview needed

        • If the primary proxy is not a SP, questions will be asked to identify the family’s meal planner/ shopper/ preparer

        • If one of the adult SP in the family was identified as the family’s meal planner/ shopper/ preparer, this person’s responses to the subset of questions will be directly linked to the children at the same family, no additional FCBS interview needed

        • A priority list will be applied when more than one adult SPs were identified as the family’s meal planner/ shopper/ preparer.

        • If neither the primary proxy nor the family’s meal planner/ shopper/ preparer is a SP, an appointment will be made with the proxy who answered PFU dietary recall to complete the FCBS interview for children 1-15 years.
