ABSTRACT
1993 NHIS Childhood Immunization Public Use File
General Information
In the 1993 NHIS, information on childhood immunizations was collected from
adult respondents (often the mother) for one sample child under 6 years of age
per NHIS family with age-eligible children in the household. Analysts are
STRONGLY encouraged to review the questionnaire used for this survey before
undertaking any analysis.
Five vaccine types were asked about in the survey: DTP, Polio, Measles or MMR,
Hemophilus type B or HIB, and Hepatitis B. When possible, information was
abstracted directly from vaccination records maintained by the family.
Respondents with vaccination records were also asked about additional shots
that may have been received but were not listed on the records. Respondents
who were unable to provide records were asked the number of shots of each type
their child had received. Respondents who did not know the exact number of
shots but stated that the child had received "all" of a particular type of
vaccination had "88" coded as the number of shots.
For each vaccine type, the total number of shots received was calculated and
included as a recode for each child in the file. For children 2 years and
older who had complete shot record information (i.e., all their vaccination
information was contained on their shot record), the total number received by
24 months was also calculated and included on the file as a recode.
Estimation of immunization coverage levels (i.e., the percentage of children
who are "up-to-date" for a particular vaccine type or a series of vaccines) is
complicated. The National Immunization Program at the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention is responsible for calculating the official Public
Health Service coverage level estimates. Analysts who wish to make these
types of estimates can contact the National Immunization Program (404-639-8235)
for technical assistance.
Information collected in this survey is the same as that collected in the 1992
NHIS. Similar information was also collected in the 1991 NHIS as part of a
supplement on child health. However, there are some differences in the way
the information based on respondent's recall was collected in 1992-93 compared
with 1991. In 1991, the ages of vaccination were collected for each antigen;
in 1992-93, just the total number of shots of each type was collected. The
recode for shots received before 24 months was calculated for all children
2 and older in 1991; in 1992-93, since data on ages at vaccination was not
collected in the history portion, this recode could only be calculated for
those children with complete shot record information.
The response rate to the 1993 Immunization Survey was 92.7 percent and was
calculated as follows:
The response rate to the NHIS Core questionnaire was 95.8 percent.
Of the eligible families from the CORE, 96.8 percent responded to
the Immunization supplement. Multiplying these two response rates
together yields the overall response rate to the Immunization
Survey (92.7 percent).
Each record included in the Immunization file contains a final weight (file
locations 207-212). Weights must be used to make accurate estimates based on
this data file. Because the Immunizations Survey included only one child per
NHIS family, the weight on this file is different from the weight for the same
child on the NHIS Core Person file. Most of the weights for records on the
Immunization file are between 2000 and 8000. However, due to the design of
the NHIS and the weighting procedure, there may be some records on the
Immunization file which have very large weights (greater than 15,000).
Analyses involving fairly small sample numbers may be heavily impacted by the
inclusion of these records with extremely large weights. Analysts are
encouraged to look at the distribution of weights for records being analyzed
to decide how to handle these weighting outliers.
Also, in the second quarter of 1993, because of budgetary problems, the NHIS
was administered on alternate weeks. This resulted in a 50 percent decrease
in the number of respondents in that quarter compared with other quarters.
Analysts need to be aware that this decrease in sample size will increase the
sampling variance for 1993. In particular, the number of respondents in the
second quarter may not be large enough to generate reliable estimates for that
quarter.
Guidelines for Citation of Data
With the goal of mutual benefit, the National Center for Health Statistics
(NCHS) requests that recipients of data files cooperate in certain actions
related to their use.
Any published material derived from the data should acknowledge NCHS as the
original source. The suggested citation to appear at the bottom of all tables
is as follows:
Source: National Center for Health Statistics (1993)
When cited in a bibliography, the suggested citation should read:
National Center for Health Statistics (1994). Public Use File
Documentation, National Health Interview Survey of Immunization,
1993 (machine readable data file and documentation), National Center
for Health Statistics, Hyattsville, Maryland
The published material should also include a disclaimer that credits any
analyses, interpretations, or conclusions reached to the author (recipient
of the data file) and not to NCHS, which is responsible only for the
initial data. Consumers who wish to publish a technical description of the
data should make a reasonable effort to insure that the description is not
inconsistent with that published by NCHS.
