Title Description
Disease Prevention The study focuses on health behaviour and disease probabilities.
Disease Prevention > Main Measure (September 2008) In September 2008, a questionnaire on preventive care and the value of risk reduction was administered to the LISS panel. Panel members were asked about their participation in preventive care programs available in the Netherlands (flu shots, cervical cancer tests, mammograms, STD tests and the use of aspirin for the prevention of heart disease). In addition, they were asked about their previous experience with the disease and prevention, whether they were invited to participate in the free program, the motivations behind their participation decision, the actual or expected costs of the intervention, risk factors that might influence their individual risk of disease, and their perceptions of the risks they face with and without preventive care. Panel members were asked a number of subjective probability questions, including the risk of developing a particular disease and the risk of mortality. The questionnaire also had an experiment to investigate the role of framing. Some people were asked about the probability of survival and others were asked about the probability of death. Also the order of the subjective probability questions was randomized. Finally, visual aids were used to help people to interpret and express small probabilities: One third of the respondents answered the probability questions in a normal answer box, one third received a digital scale to provide their answer, and one third was presented a number-line with a magnifier, making it easier to choose very small probabilities.
Disease Prevention > Flu Shot (January 2009) In Januari 2009, a question was asked in the LISS panel about the flu shot. This followed the questionnaire which had been administered in the panel in September 2008.
Disease Prevention > Flu (April 2009) In April 2009 a question about the flu was asked in the LISS panel. This question followed the questionnaire on Disease prevention, which was administered in September 2008.
Weighing Project The Weighing Project follows developments in weight and lifestyle. The project consists of two parts: The Weighing Questionnaire and the Weighing Scale Data. The Weighing Questionnaire is presented monthly to selected households. For the Weighing Scale Data, CentERdata sent weighing scales to selected households. Depending on the experimental group, household members weigh themselves with a certain frequency, after which they can get a certain form of feedback about their measures. The data are automatically redirected to CentERdata and disseminated monthly.
Weighing Project > Weighing Questionnaire This questionnaire is presented to all participating households within the Weighing Project. The questionnaire is repeated every month.
Weighing Project > Weighing Questionnaire > 2011 January This is the first Weighing Questionnaire measurement, conducted in January 2011.
Weighing Project > Weighing Scale Data For the weighing scale data CentERdata sent weighing scales to selected households.
