- 1. Development and testing of a caregiver-proxy child health questionnaire for the New Zealand Health Survey ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-522-X200600110437Description:
The New Zealand Ministry of Health has expanded its population health survey, the New Zealand Health Survey (NZHS), to include a questionnaire specifically on child health. The principal aim of the NZHS child questionnaire is to collect health data from parents or caregivers that can be used for monitoring population-level child health status, health service utilisation, and the health risk and protective behaviours that have their origins in childhood. Previously, only data collected through child contact with the health system, for example hospital administration records and disease/injury databases, have been available for monitoring child health in New Zealand. This paper reviews the questionnaire development for the child health component of the 2006/2007 New Zealand Health Survey, including topic selection, question development, cognitive-testing, preliminary sample design, final questionnaire drafting, and dress rehearsal testing.

The present review provides a description of various Canadian national survey data sets that could be used to examine issues related to child care use. National data sets dealing with patterns of employment, time use, family earnings, social support, and child, adolescent, or adult health measures were included. We conclude that numerous questions remain unanswered in terms of addressing the relationship between patterns of employment, use of child care, family roles and responsibilities, and associations with the health of families. Recommendations are made about information that has not been collected but may prove to be useful in addressing these issues. Moreover, we conclude that existing Canadian national survey data could be used to address several issues related to patterns of care use as well as the impact on children and families.
