Description:
The Hispanic Health
and Nutrition Examination Survey (HHANES) was a nationwide probability
sample of approximately 16,000 persons, 6 months-74 years of age.
Hispanics were included in past health and nutrition examinations, but
neither in sufficient numbers to produce estimates of the health of
Hispanics in general, nor specific data for Puerto Ricans, Mexican
Americans, or Cuban Americans.
Data from the HHANES are
generally organized by the data collection method (e.g., Child Sample
Person Questionnaire or Dental Examination). The data files comprising the
HHANES include a number of demographic and socioeconomic variables on each
tape, including age, gender, ethnicity, income, education, and marital
status.
