This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents info. from the 2007 Nat. Survey on Drug Use and Health; this survey was formerly called the Nat. Household Survey on Drug Abuse.

The survey interviews approx. 67,500 persons each year. This initial report on the 2007 data presents nat. estimates of rates of use, numbers of users, and other measures related to illicit drugs, alcohol, and tobacco products. Measures related to mental health problems also are included. A major focus of this report is a comparison of substance use prevalence estimates between 2006 and 2007. Trends since 2002 also are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a Congressional request, the General Accounting Office (GAO) investigated drug use measurement by reporting the drug use patterns of targeted groups in three nationally prominent drug studies, assessing the methodological strengths and limitations of the studies, and developing recommendations for the improvement of drug prevalence estimates. The GAO examined the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse (NHSDA), the High School Senior Survey (HSSS), and the Drug Use Forecasting (DUF) study of booked arrestees. The NHSDA was found to be limited by the exclusion of groups at high risk for drug use, problematic measurement of heroin and cocaine use, and reliance on subject self-reports. HSSS excluded dropouts and absentees, yielded questionable estimates of drug use in non-white populations, and relied on self-reports. DUF employed both self-reports and the objective technique of urinalysis for assessing drug use, but its findings cannot be generalized. This document presents the report GAO sent to Congress concerning the evaluation of the three drug use studies and the recommendations for improving the studies. Following an executive summary, chapter 1 of the report provides an introduction to the GAO work. Chapter 2 describes the NHSDA, HSSS, and DUF studies and illustrates the drug use rates for marijuana, cocaine, and heroin and other opiates for different target groups. Chapter 3 describes the strengths and limitations of each of the three studies. Chapter 4 provides guidelines and recommendations for enhancing drug prevalence estimation techniques. (NB)

Download or read book Informing America's Policy on Illegal Drugs written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-09-27 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How should the war on drugs be fought? Everyone seems to agree that the United States ought to use a combination of several different approaches to combat the destructive effects of illegal drug use. Yet there is a remarkable paucity of data and research information that policy makers require if they are to create a useful, realistic policy package-details about drug use, drug market economics, and perhaps most importantly the impact of drug enforcement activities. Informing America's Policy on Illegal Drugs recommends ways to close these gaps in our understanding-by obtaining the necessary data on drug prices and consumption (quantity in addition to frequency); upgrading federal management of drug statistics; and improving our evaluation of prevention, interdiction, enforcement, and treatment efforts. The committee reviews what we do and do not know about illegal drugs and how data are assembled and used by federal agencies. The book explores the data and research information needed to support strong drug policy analysis, describes the best methods to use, explains how to avoid misleading conclusions, and outlines strategies for increasing access to data. Informing America's Policy on Illegal Drugs also discusses how researchers can incorporate randomization into studies of drug treatment and how state and local agencies can compare alternative approaches to drug enforcement. Charting a course toward a better-informed illegal drugs policy, this book will be important to federal and state policy makers, regulators, researchers, program administrators, enforcement officials, journalists, and advocates concerned about illegal drug use.

Download or read book Handbook of Survey Methodology for the Social Sciences written by Lior Gideon and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-06-21 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surveys enjoy great ubiquity among data collection methods in social research: they are flexible in questioning techniques, in the amount of questions asked, in the topics covered, and in the various ways of interactions with respondents. Surveys are also the preferred method by many researchers in the social sciences due to their ability to provide quick profiles and results. Because they are so commonly used and fairly easy to administer, surveys are often thought to be easily thrown together. But designing an effective survey that yields reliable and valid results takes more than merely asking questions and waiting for the answers to arrive. Geared to the non-statistician, the Handbook of Survey Methodology in Social Sciences addresses issues throughout all phases of survey design and implementation. Chapters examine the major survey methods of data collection, providing expert guidelines for asking targeted questions, improving accuracy and quality of responses, while reducing sampling and non-sampling bias. Relying on the Total Survey Error theory, various issues of both sampling and non-sampling sources of error are explored and discussed. By covering all aspects of the topic, the Handbook is suited to readers taking their first steps in survey methodology, as well as to those already involved in survey design and execution, and to those currently in training. Featured in the Handbook: • The Total Survey Error: sampling and non-sampling errors. • Survey sampling techniques. • The art of question phrasing. • Techniques for increasing response rates • A question of ethics: what is allowed in survey research? • Survey design: face-to-face, phone, mail, e-mail, online, computer-assisted.? • Dealing with sensitive issues in surveys. • Demographics of respondents: implications for future survey research. • Dealing with nonresponse, and nonresponse bias The Handbook of Survey Methodology in Social Sciences offers how-to clarity for researchers in the social and behavioral sciences and related disciplines, including sociology, criminology, criminal justice, social psychology, education, public health, political science, management, and many other disciplines relying on survey methodology as one of their main data collection tools.
