Poster Session | ||||
| ||||
| This poster session includes statistical studies of geographic variation, reports of innovative data collection methodologies, and a simulation study of empirical effect sizes in analyses of variance. Posters concerned with geographic variation include a national comparison of health status measures by level of five strata spanning the urban-rural continuum, a new federal tool for collection of state and local data by integrated telephone surveys, and an application of a geographic information system in the design and evaluation of a community-based chronic disease intervention project. Data collection strategies for longitudinal surveys of transient Latino populations, and Computer-Assisted Self Interview for sensitive data, are also described. | ||||

| Learning Objectives: After reviewing these posters, the attendee should be able to: 1. Describe urban-rural differences in various health outcomes and health access measures. 2. Describe how graphical information systems can be used to help meet objectives of a community-based chronic disease intervention project. 3. Describe the State and Local Area Integrated Telephone Survey (SLAITS), and the opportunities it provides for obtaining in-depth state and local data. 4. Identify special data collection issues presented by surveys targeted to transient Spanish speaking populations, as well as effective strategies to address them. 5. Describe issues involved in the development and implementation of an Audio-Computerized Assisted Self Interview (A-CASI), including software expense, technical issues, staffing needs, subject acceptance, and validity of resulting data. 6. Define several measures of effect size in analysis of variance (ANOVA), and discuss characteristics of their null empirical distributions. | ||||
