Introduction
The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) collects, analyzes, and disseminates data on
the health status of U.S. residents. The results of surveys, analyses, and
studies are made known through a number of data release mechanisms
including publications, mainframe computer data files, CD-ROMs (Search and
Retrieval Software, Statistical Export and Tabulation System (SETS)), and the
Internet (http://www.cdc.gov/nchswww/nchshome.htm).
The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is a periodic
survey conducted by NCHS. The third National Health and Nutrition
Examination Survey (NHANES III), conducted from 1988 through 1994, was the
seventh in a series of these surveys based on a complex, multi-stage sample
plan. It was designed to provide national estimates of the health and
nutritional status of the United States' civilian, noninstitutionalized
population aged two months and older.
Data from NHANES III are being released in five public release data files:
NHANES III Household Adult Data File (Catalog Number 77560)
NHANES III Household Youth Data File (Catalog Number 77550)
NHANES III Examination Data File (Catalog Number 76200)
NHANES III Laboratory Data File (Catalog Number 76300)

GUIDELINES FOR DATA USERS
Please refer to the following important information before analyzing data.
NHANES III Background Documents
o The Plan and Operation of the Third National Health and Nutrition
Examination Survey, 1988-94, (NCHS, 1994; U.S. DHHS, 1996) provides an
overview of the survey and includes copies of the survey forms.
o The sample design, nonresponse, and analytic guidelines documents on
the NHANES III Reference Manuals and Reports CD-ROM (U.S. DHHS, 1996)
discuss the reasons that sample weights and the complex survey design
should be taken into account when conducting any analysis.
o Instruction manuals, laboratory procedures, and other NHANES III
reference manuals on the NHANES III Reference Manuals and Reports
CD-ROM(U.S. DHHS, 1996) are also available for further information on
the details of the survey.
Analytic Data Set Preparation
o Most NHANES III survey design and demographic variables are found only
on the Adult and Youth Household Data Files. In preparing a data set
for analysis, other data files must be merged with either or both of
these files to obtain many important analytic variables.
o All of the NHANES III public use data files are linked with the common
survey participant identification number (SEQN). Merging information
from multiple NHANES III data files using this variable ensures that
the appropriate information for each survey participant is linked
correctly.
o NHANES III public use data files do not have the same number of
records on each file. The Household Questionnaire Files (divided into
two files, Adult and Youth) contain more records than the Examination
Data File because not everyone who was interviewed completed the
examination. The Laboratory Data File contains data only for persons
aged one year and older. The Individual Foods Data File based on the
dietary recall has multiple records for each person rather than the one
record per sample person contained in the other data files.
o For each data file, SAS program code with standard variable names and
labels is provided as separate text files on the CD-ROM that contains
the data files. This SAS program code can be used to create a SAS
data set from the data file.
o Modifications were made to items in the questionnaires, laboratory,
and examination components over the course of the survey; as a result,
data may not be available for certain variables for the full six years.
In addition, variables may differ by phase since some changes were
implemented between phases. Users are encouraged to read the Notes
sections of this document carefully for information about changes.
o Extremely high and low values have been verified whenever possible,
and numerous consistency checks have been performed. Nonetheless, users
should examine the range and frequency of values before analyzing
data.
o Some data were not ready for release at the time of this publication
due to continued processing of the data or analysis of laboratory
specimens. A listing of those data are available in the general
information section of each data file.
o Confidential and administrative data are not being released to the
public. Additionally, some variables have been recoded to help
protect the confidentiality of the survey participants. For example,
all age-related variables were recoded to 90+ years for persons who were
90 years of age and older.
o Some variable names may differ from those used in the Phase 1 NHANES
III Provisional Data Release and some variables included in the Phase 1
provisional release may not appear on these files.
o Although the data files have been edited carefully, errors may be
detected. Please notify NCHS staff (301-436-8500) of any errors in
the data file or the documentation.
Analytic Considerations
o NHANES III (1988-94) was designed so that the survey's first three
years, 1988-91, its last three years, 1991-94, and the entire six
years were national probability samples. Analysts are encouraged to use
all six years of survey results.
o Sample weights are available for analyzing NHANES III data. One of
the following three sample weights will be appropriate for nearly all
analyses: interviewed sample final weight (WTPFQX6), examined sample
final weight (WTPFEX6), and mobile examination center (MEC)- and
home-examined sample final weight (WTPFHX6). Choosing which of these
sample weights to use in any analysis depends on the variables being
used. A good rule of thumb is to use "the least common denominator"
approach. In this approach, the user checks the variables of
interest. The variable that was collected on the smallest number of
persons is the "least common denominator," and the sample weight that
applies to that variable is the appropriate one to use for that
analysis. For more detailed information, see the Analytic and Reporting
Guidelines for NHANES III (U.S. DHHS, 1996).

SURVEY DESCRIPTION
The third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) was
the seventh in a series of large health examination surveys conducted in
the United States beginning in 1960. Three of these surveys, the National
Health Examination Surveys (NHES), were conducted in the 1960's (NCHS, 1965;
NCHS, 1967; NCHS, 1969). In 1970, an expanded nutrition component was added
to provide data with which to assess nutritional status and dietary
practices, and the name was changed to the National Health and Nutrition
Examination Survey (Miller, 1973; Engel, 1978; McDowell, 1981). A special
survey of Hispanic populations in the United States was conducted during
1982-1984 (NCHS, 1985).
The general structure of the NHANES III sample design was similar to that
of the previous NHANES. All of the surveys used complex, multi-stage,
stratified, clustered samples of civilian, noninstitutionalized
populations. NHANES III was the first NHANES without an upper age limit; in
fact, the age range for the survey was two months and older. A home
examination option was employed for the first time in order to obtain
examination data for very young children and for elderly persons who were
unable to visit the mobile examination center (MEC). The home examination
included only a subset of the components used in the full MEC examination
since it would have been difficult to collect some types of data in a home
setting. A detailed description of design specifications and copies of the
data collection forms can be found in the Plan and Operation of the Third
National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1988-1994 (NCHS, 1994; U.S.
DHHS, 1996).
NHANES III was conducted from October 1988 through October 1994 in two
phases, each of which comprised a national probability sample. The first
phase was conducted from October 18, 1988, through October 24, 1991, at 44
locations. The second phase was conducted from September 20, 1991, through
October 15, 1994, at 45 different locations. In NHANES III, 39,695 persons
were selected over the six years; of those, 33,994 (86%) were interviewed
in their homes. All interviewed persons were invited to the MEC for a
medical examination. Seventy-eight percent (30,818) of the selected persons
were examined in the MEC, and an additional 493 persons were given a special,
limited examination in their homes.
Data collection began with a household interview. Several questionnaires
were administered in the household: Household Screener Questionnaire,
Family Questionnaire, Household Adult Questionnaire, and Household Youth
Questionnaire.
At the MEC, an examination was performed, and five automated questionnaires
or interviews were administered: MEC Adult Questionnaire, MEC Youth
Questionnaire, MEC Proxy Questionnaire, 24-Hour Dietary Recall, and Dietary
Food Frequency (ages 12-16 years). The health examination component
included a variety of tests and procedures. The examinee's age at the time
of the interview and other factors determined which procedures were
administered. Blood and urine specimens were obtained, and a number of tests
and measurements were performed including body measurements, spirometry,
fundus photography, x-rays, electrocardiography, allergy and glucose
tolerance tests, and ultrasonography. Measurements were taken of bone
density, hearing, and physical, cognitive, and central nervous system
functions. A physician performed a limited standardized medical examination
and a dentist performed a standardized dental examination. While some of the
blood and urine analyses were performed in the MEC laboratory, most analyses
were conducted elsewhere by contract laboratories.
A home examination was conducted for those sample persons aged 2-11 months
and aged 20 years or older who were unable to visit the mobile examination
center. The home examination consisted of an abbreviated version of the
tests and interviews performed in the MEC. Depending on age of the sample
person, the components included body measurements, blood pressure,
spirometry, venipuncture, physical function evaluation, and a questionnaire
to inquire about infant feeding, selected health conditions, cognitive
function, tobacco use, and reproductive history.
SAMPLE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS GUIDELINES
Sample Design
The general structure of the NHANES III sample design is the same as that
of the previous NHANES. Each of these surveys used a stratified, multi-stage
probability design. The major design parameters of the two previous NHANES
and the special Hispanic HANES, as well as NHANES III, have been previously
summarized (Miller, 1973; McDowell, 1981; NCHS, 1985; NCHS, 1994). The
NHANES III sample was designed to be self-weighting within a primary
sampling unit (PSU) for subdomains (age, sex, and race-ethnic groups). While
the sample was fairly close to self-weighting nationally for each of these
subdomain groups, it was not representative of the total population, which
includes institutionalized, non-civilian persons that were outside the
scope of the survey.
The NHANES III sample represented the total civilian, noninstitutionalized
population, two months of age or over, in the 50 states and the District of
Columbia of the United States. The first stage of the design consisted of
selecting a sample of 81 PSU's that were mostly individual counties. In a
few cases, adjacent counties were combined to keep PSU's above a minimum
population size. The PSU's were stratified and selected with probability
proportional to size (PPS). Thirteen large counties (strata) were chosen
with certainty (probability of one). For operational reasons, these 13
certainty PSU's were divided into 21 survey locations. After the 13
certainty strata were designated, the remaining PSU's in the United States
were grouped into 34 strata, and two PSU's were selected per stratum (68
survey locations). The selection was done with PPS and without
replacement. The NHANES III sample therefore consists of 81 PSU's or 89
locations.
The 89 locations were randomly divided into two groups, one for each phase.
The first group consisted of 44 and the other of 45 locations. One set
of PSU's was allocated to the first three-year survey period (1988-91) and
the other set to the second three-year period (1991-94). Therefore,
unbiased estimates (from the point of view of sample selection) of health and
nutrition characteristics can be independently produced for both Phase 1
and Phase 2 as well as for both phases combined.
For most of the sample, the second stage of the design consisted of area
segments composed of city or suburban blocks, combinations of blocks, or
other area segments in places where block statistics were not produced in
the 1980 Census. In the first phase of NHANES III, the area segments were
used only for a sample of persons who lived in housing units built before
1980. For units built in 1980 and later, the second stage consisted of sets
of addresses selected from building permits issued in 1980 or later. These
are referred to as "new construction segments." In the second phase, 1990
Census data and maps were used to define the area segments. Because the
second phase followed within a few years of the 1990 Census, new construction
did not account for a significant part of the sample, and the entire sample
came from the area segments.
The third stage of sample selection consisted of households and certain
types of group quarters, such as dormitories. All households and eligible
group quarters in the sample segments were listed, and a subsample was
designated for screening to identify potential sample persons. The
subsampling rates enabled production of a national, approximately
equal-probability sample of households in most of the United States with
higher rates for the geographic strata with high Mexican-American
populations. Within each geographic stratum, there was a nearly
equal-probability sample of households across all 89 stands.
Persons within the sample of households or group quarters were the fourth
stage of sample selection. All eligible members within a household were
listed, and a subsample of individuals was selected based on sex, age, and
race or ethnicity. The definitions of the sex, age, race or ethnic
classes, subsampling rates, and designation of potential sample persons
within screened households were developed to provide approximately
self-weighting samples for each subdomain within geographic strata and at the
same time to maximize the average number of sample persons per sample
household. Previous NHANES indicated that this increased the overall
participation rate. Although the exact sample sizes were not known until
data collection was completed, estimates were made. Below is a summary of
the sample sizes for the full six-year NHANES III at each stage of selection:
Number of PSU's 81
Number of stands (survey locations) 89
Number of segments 2,144
Number of households screened 93,653
Number of households with sample persons 19,528
Number of designated sample persons 39,695
Number of interviewed sample persons 33,994
Number of MEC-examined sample persons 30,818
Number of home-examined sample persons 493
More detailed information on the sample design and weighting and estimation
procedures for NHANES III can be found in the Plan and Operation of the
Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1988-94 (NCHS, 1994;
U.S. DHHS, 1996) and in the Analytic and Reporting Guidelines: Third National
Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III), 1988-94 (U.S. DHHS,
1996).
Analysis Guidelines
Because of the complex survey design used in NHANES III, traditional
methods of statistical analysis based on the assumption of a simple random
sample are not applicable. Detailed descriptions of this issue and possible
analytic methods for analyzing NHANES data have been described earlier (NCHS,
1985; Yetley, 1987; Landis, 1982; Delgado, 1990). Recent analytic and
reporting guidelines that should be used for most NHANES III analyses and
publications are contained in Analytic and Reporting Guidelines (U.S. DHHS,
1996). These recommendations differ slightly from those used by analysts for
previous NHANES surveys. These suggested guidelines provide a framework to
users for producing estimates that conform to the analytic design of the
survey. All users are strongly urged to review these analytic and reporting
guidelines before beginning any analyses of NHANES III data.
It is important to remember that this set of statistical guidelines is not
absolute. When conducting analyses, the analyst needs to use his/her
subject matter knowledge (including methodological issues) as well as
information about the survey design. The more one deviates from the original
analytic categories defined in the sample design, the more important it is to
evaluate the results carefully and to interpret the findings cautiously.
In NHANES III, 89 survey locations were randomly divided into two sets or
phases, the first consisting of 44 and the other of 45 locations. One set
of PSU's was allocated to the first three-year survey period (1988-91) and
the other set to the second three-year period (1991-94). Therefore, unbiased
national estimates of health and nutrition characteristics can be
independently produced for each phase as well as for both phases combined.
Computation of national estimates from both phases combined (i.e., total
NHANES III) is the preferred option; individual phase estimates may be
highly variable. In addition, individual phase estimates are not
statistically independent. It is also difficult to evaluate whether
differences in individual phase estimates are real or due to methodological
differences. That is, differences may be due to changes in sampling methods
or data collection methodology over time. At this time, there is no valid
statistical test for examining differences between Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Therefore, although point estimates can be produced separately for each
phase, no test is available to test whether those estimates are
significantly different from each other.
NHANES III is based on a complex, multi-stage probability sample design.
Several aspects of the NHANES design must be taken into account in data
analysis, including the sample weights and the complex survey design.
Appropriate sample weights are needed to estimate prevalence, means,
medians, and other statistics. Sample weights are used to produce correct
population estimates because each sample person does not have the same
probability of selection. The sample weights incorporate the differential
probabilities of selection and include adjustments for noncoverage and
nonresponse. A detailed discussion of nonresponse adjustments and issues
related to survey coverage have been published (U.S. DHHS, 1996). With the
large oversampling of young children, older persons, black persons, and
Mexican-Americans in NHANES III, it is essential that the sample weights be
used in all analyses. Otherwise, a misinterpretation of results is highly
likely. Other aspects of the design that must be taken into account in data
analyses are the strata and PSU pairings from the sample design. These
pairings should be used to estimate variances and test for statistical
significance. For weighted analyses, analysts can use special computer
software packages that use an appropriate method for estimating variances for
complex samples such as SUDAAN (Shah, 1995) and WesVarPC (Westat, 1996).
Although initial exploratory analyses may be performed on unweighted data
using standard statistical packages and assuming simple random sampling,
final analyses should be done on weighted data using appropriate sample
weights. A summary of the weighting methodology and the type of sample
weights developed for NHANES III is included in Weighting and Estimation
Methodology (U.S. DHHS, 1996).
The purpose of weighting the sample data is to permit analysts to produce
estimates of statistics that would have been obtained if the entire
sampling frame (the United States) had been surveyed. Sample weights can be
considered as measures of the number of persons the particular sample
observation represents. Weighting takes into account several features of
the survey: the specific probabilities of selection for the individual
domains that were oversampled as well as nonresponse and differences between
the sample and the total U.S. population. Differences between the sample and
the population may arise due to sampling variability, differential
undercoverage in the survey among demographic groups, and possibly other
types of response errors, such as differential response rates or
misclassification errors. Sample weighting in NHANES III was used to:
1. Compensate for differential probabilities of selection among subgroups
(i.e., age-sex-race-ethnicity subdomains where persons living in
different geographic strata were sampled at different rates);
2. Reduce biases arising from the fact that nonrespondents may be
different from those who participate;
3. Bring sample data up to the dimensions of the target population
totals;
4. Compensate, to the extent possible, for inadequacies in the sampling
frame (resulting from omissions of some housing units in the listing
of area segments, omissions of persons with no fixed address, etc.); and
5. To reduce variances in the estimation procedure by using auxiliary
information that is known with a high degree of accuracy.
In NHANES III, the sample weighting was carried out in three stages. The
first stage involved the computation of weights to compensate for unequal
probabilities of selection (objective 1, above). The second stage adjusted
for nonresponse (objective 2). The third stage used poststratification of
the sample weights to Census Bureau estimates of the U.S. population to
accomplish the third, fourth, and fifth objectives simultaneously. In
NHANES III, several types of sample weights (see the sample weights table
that follows) were computed for the interviewed and examined sample and are
included in the NHANES III data file. Also, sample weights were computed
separately for Phase 1 (1988-91), Phase 2 (1991-94), and total NHANES III
(1988-94) to facilitate analysis of items collected only in Phase 1, only
in Phase 2, and over six years of the survey. Three sets of pseudo strata
and PSU pairings are provided to use with SUDAAN in variance estimation.
Since NHANES III is based on a complex, multi-stage sample design,
appropriate sample weights should be used in analyses to produce national
estimates of prevalence and associated variances while accounting for
unequal probability of selection of sample persons. For example, the final
interview weight, WTPFQX6, should be used for analysis of the items or
questions from the family or household questionnaires, and the final MEC
examination weight, WTPFEX6, should be used for analysis of the
questionnaires and measurements administered in the MEC. Furthermore, for a
combined analysis of measurements from the MEC examinations and associated
medical history questions from the household interview, the final MEC
examination weight, WTPFEX6, should be used. We recommend using SUDAAN
(Shah, 1995) to estimate statistics of interest and the associated variance.
However, one can also use other published methods for variance estimation.
Application of SUDAAN and alternative methods, such as the average design
effect approach, balance repeated replication (BRR) methods, or jackknife
methods for variance estimation, are discussed in Weighting and Estimation
Methodology (U.S. DHHS, 1996).

assigned to the afternoon/evening subsample and with items
collected during the MEC and home examinations.
DATA PREPARATION AND PROCESSING PROCEDURES
Automated data collection procedures for the survey were introduced in
NHANES III. In the mobile examination centers, data for the interview and
examination components were recorded directly onto a computerized data
collection form. With the exception of a few independently automated
systems, the system was centrally integrated. This operation allowed for
ongoing monitoring of much of the data. Before the introduction of the
computer-assisted personal interview (CAPI), the household questionnaire
data were reviewed manually by field editors and interviewers. CAPI
(1992-1994 only) questionnaires featured built-in edits to prevent entering
inconsistencies and out-of-range responses. The multi-level data
collection and quality control systems are discussed in detail in the Plan
and Operation of the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey,
1988-1994 (NCHS, 1994; U.S. DHHS, 1996). All interview, laboratory, and
examination data were sent to NCHS for final processing.
Guidelines were developed that provided standards for naming variables,
filling missing values and coding conventional responses, handling missing
records, and standardizing two-part quantity/unit questionnaire variables.
NCHS staff, assisted by contract staff, developed data editing
specifications that checked data sets for valid codes, ranges, and skip
pattern consistencies and examined the consistency of values between
interrelated variables. Comments, collected in both interviews and
examination components, were reviewed and recoded when possible. Responses
to "Other" and "Specify" were recoded either to existing code categories or
to new categories. The documentation for each data set includes notes for
those variables that have been recoded and standardized and for those
variables that differ significantly from what appears in the original data
collection instrument. While the data have undergone many quality control
and editing procedures, there still may be values that appear extreme or
illogical. Values that varied considerably from what was expected were
examined by analysts who checked for comments or other responses that might
help to clarify unusual values. Generally, values were retained unless they
could not possibly be true, in which case they were changed to "Blank but
applicable." Therefore, the user must review each data set for extreme or
inconsistent values and determine the status of each value for analysis.
Several editing conventions were used in the creation of final analytic
data sets:
1. Standardized variables were created to replace all two-part
quantity/unit questions using standard conversion factors.
Standardized variables have the same name as the variable of the
two-part question with an "S" suffix. For instance, MAPF18S (Months
received WIC benefits) in the MEC Adult Questionnaire was created from
the two-part response option to question F18, "How long did you receive
benefits from the WIC program?," using the conversion factor 12 months
per year.
2. Recoded variables were created by combining responses from two or more
like variables, or by collapsing responses to create a summary
variable for the purpose of confidentiality. Recoded variables have the
original variable name with an R suffix. For example, place of birth
variable (HFA6X) in the Family Questionnaire was collapsed to a three
level response category (U.S., Mexico, Other) and renamed HFA6XR.
Generally, only the recoded variable has been included in the data file.
3. Fill values, a series of one or more digits, were used to represent
certain specific conditions or responses. Below is a list of the fill
values that were employed. Some of the fill values pertain only to
questionnaire data, although 8-fill and blank-fill values are found in
all data sets. Other fill values, not included in this list, are used
to represent component-specific conditions.
6-fills = Varies/varied. (Questionnaires only)
7-fills = Fewer than the smallest number that could be reported within
the question structure (e.g., fewer than one cigarette per day).
(Questionnaires only)
8-fills = Blank but applicable/cannot be determined. This means that
a respondent was eligible to receive the question, test, or component
but did not because of refusal, lack of time, lack of staff, loss of
data, broken vial, language barrier, unreliability, or other similar
reasons.
9-fills = Don't know. This fill was used only when a respondent did
not know the response to a question and said, "I don't know."
(Questionnaires only)
Blank fills = Inapplicable. If a respondent was not eligible for a
questionnaire, test, or component because of age, gender, or specific
reason, the variable was blank-filled. In the questionnaire, if a
respondent was not asked a question because of a skip-pattern,
variables corresponding to the question were blank-filled. For
examination or laboratory components, if a person was excluded by a
defined protocol (e.g., screening exclusion questions) and these
criteria are included in the data set, then the corresponding
variables were blank-filled for that person. For home examinees,
variables for examination components and blood tests not performed as
part of the home examination protocol were blank-filled.
4. For variables describing discrete data, codes of zero (0) were used to
mean "none," "never," or the equivalent. Value labels for which "0"
is used include: "has not had," "never regularly," "still taking," or
"never stopped using." Unless otherwise labeled, for variables
containing continuous data, "zero" means "zero.
5. Where there are logical skip patterns in the flow of the questionnaire
or examination component, the skip was indicated by placing the
variable label of the skip destination in parentheses as part of the
value label of the response generating the skip. For example, in the
Physical Function Evaluation, the variable PFPWC (in wheelchair) has a
value label, "2 No (PFPSCOOT)" that means that the next item for
persons not in a wheelchair would be represented by the variable,
PFPSCOOT.
Variable Nomenclature
A unique name was assigned to every NHANES III variable using a standard
convention. By following this naming convention, the origin of each
variable is clear, and there is no chance of overlaying similar variables
across multiple components. Variables range in length from three to eight
characters. The first two variable characters represent the topic (e.g.,
analyte, questionnaire instrument, examination component) and are listed
below alphabetically by topic. For questionnaires administered in the
household, the remainder of the variable name following the first two
characters indicates the question section and number. For example, data
for the response to the Household Adult Questionnaire question B1 are
contained in the variable HAB1. For most laboratory and examination
variables, as well as some other variables, a "P" in the third position
refers to "primary" and the remainder of the variable name is a brief
description of the item. For instance, in the Laboratory Data File,
information on the length of time the person fasted before the first blood
draw is contained in the variable PHPFAST. The variable PHPFAST was derived
as follows: characters 1-2 (PH) refer to "phlebotomy," character 3 (P)
refers to "primary," characters 4-8 (FAST) refer to an abbreviation for
"fasting."

NHANES III Dietary Interview Component
Dietary interviews were administered to all examinees by a trained dietary
interviewer in the mobile examination center (MEC). Respondents reported all
foods and beverages consumed except plain drinking water (i.e., not bottled) for
the previous 24-hour time period (midnight to midnight). An automated,
microcomputer-based dietary interview and coding system known as the NHANES III
Dietary Data Collection (DDC) System was used to collect all NHANES III dietary
recall data. The DDC system was developed for use in the survey by the
University of Minnesota's Nutrition Coordinating Center (NCC).
The dietary interviews were conducted in English and Spanish by
bilingual dietary interviewers in a private room to ensure
confidentiality. Proxy respondents were permitted for infants and children aged
two months through five years and for other respondents who were unable to
report on their own. Children aged six to 11 years were permitted to report
their own intake if the interviewer deemed it acceptable and appropriate, but
many interviewers for respondents in this age category were completed by proxy
or with the child and a proxy. The dietary interviewers contacted other
information sources such as care providers and schools to obtain complete
dietary intake data for respondents.
The primary source of food composition data for NHANES III is the U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) Survey Nutrient Database; two nutrient files
were provided by USDA for use in NHANES III (USDA 1993, 1995). Each USDA file
contained food composition values that were appropriate for the time period
during which the NHANES III data were collected. Additionally, food composition
data for a small number of herbs and spices were obtained from NCC (NCC, 1996).
The DDC system's foods database was designed specifically to handle time-related
changes in food descriptions, food amounts, and recipes; updated information was
applied retrospectively to data collected in the early part of NHANES III. As
was mentioned earlier, two USDA food composition databases were used to assign
nutrient values to the NHANES III dietary recalls (USDA 1993; USDA, 1995). In
addition to data changes that occurred in the nutrient values of foods due to
food product reformulations, recipe changes, and so forth, the U.S. marketplace
underwent tremendous growth and change as new food product lines were introduced
and new food components were added to the food
supply (e.g., fat substitutes and artificial sweeteners). The impact of these
and other changes may require additional analysis.
Dietary recall interviews were edited by the interviewers to ensure that they
were as complete as possible. NCHS completed all final editing and
determinations regarding the completeness and reliability of the dietary
recalls. Analysts should note that the data reported are self-reported data.
Extreme values were verified.
Information pertaining to the use of nutritional supplements and
antacids was reported separately during the Household Adult and
Household Youth Interviews.
A number of quality-control monitoring techniques were employed during the
survey. The techniques for monitoring the Dietary Interview component included
observations of actual dietary interviews and reviews of audiotape interviews by
NCHS and contractor staff. In addition, the dietary interviewers worked in
two-person teams; there was one team in each MEC. The dietary interviewers
performed 10-percent cross-check reviews of their partners' work using printed
recall reports. Finally, newsletters, field memoranda, telephone calls, and
staff retraining sessions were other methods used to maintain quality control
during the survey. Refer to the NHANES III Dietary Interviewer's Training
Manual for the dietary interview protocol (U.S. DHHS, 1996b).
Analysts are encouraged to use six years of survey data in their
analyses. The reliability of estimates is improved when larger sample sizes are
used. For more detailed information, see the Analytic and Reporting Guidelines
for NHANES III (U.S. DHHS, 1996b). In addition, MEC final examination weights
(WTPFEX6) should be used when analyzing the total nutrient intake data and
related questionnaire data in this file. For more information on the use of
sample weights in NHANES III data analysis, refer to the NHANES III Analytic and
Reporting Guidelines (U.S. DHHS, 1996b).
NHANES III Total Nutrient Intakes and Foods Data Files
NCHS prepared 4 datasets that are based on the 24-hr dietary recall interview.
Total nutrient intakes were reported in the NHANES III Examination Data file
(Catalog 76200). Three foods files were prepared; three files are found in
Catalog 76700: NHANES III Individual Foods Data File from the Dietary Recall;
NHANES III Combination Foods Data File from the Dietary Recall; NHANES III
(Variable) Ingredients Data File from the Dietary Recall. Documentation was
prepared for each of the foods data files. Data users are encouraged to review
all of the documentation prior to using the data files.
Look-up Tables for the NHANES III Foods Data Files
Textual descriptions for several NHANES III Foods Data File numeric code
variables are located in an Appendix section that accompanies the Foods Data
Files. The Appendix files are referred to as "look-up" tables throughout the
data file documentation for the Foods Data Files. Computer code is provided so
that data users can merge the foods data files with the information in the
Appendix/look-up tables.
COMBINATION FOODS FILE
Multi-component combination foods are foods that are comprised of more than one
component food. Any food in the NHANES III Individual Foods File that is
comprised of more than one component food is considered to be a multi-component
combination food. Approximately 85,000 multi-component foods were reported
during NHANES III. Fifteen combination food type codes (DRPTCC) were developed
for use in NHANES III; the dietary interviewers assigned codes to all multi-
component combination foods reported during NHANES III. Some examples of
combination type codes include beverage combinations (DRPTCC=7), sandwich
combinations (DRPTCC=1), mixed dish combinations (DRPTCC=4) and salad
combinations (DRPTCC=3). A cheese sandwich entered by its components: bread,
cheese, mustard, and lettuce would have a DRPTCC=1.
In addition to the multi-component type of combination foods, there were single
component combination foods reported during the survey. Single component
combination foods were entered into the DDC System using generic or brand name
product food entry selections in the DDC system. If a respondent ate a sandwich
or mixed dish in a restaurant and could not provide any details about the food,
the DDC System's generic combination food selections were used. A cheese
sandwich or beef taco could be entered as such using the appropriate selections
in the DDC system; generic combination food options were available for many
combination foods. A second example would be for a sandwich eaten in a "fast
food restaurant:; if the restaurant was one of the commercial establishments in
the DDC System, the interviewers could select the restaurant menu item directly
as long as the respondent ate the sandwich as prepared.
The NHANES III Individual Foods File lists the food records and component food
records for single and multi-component combination foods. Multi-component
combination foods have a Combination Food Flag (DRPCFF) value equal to 1.
Single component combination foods have DRPCFF=0. Some multi-component foods
are comprised of a single component combination food plus additional food
components and have a DRPCFF=1 because the food is a multi-component food.
The CFF provides a single, summary data record for multi-component combination
foods reported in the survey; descriptive information and nutrient values for
multi-component combination foods are included in the CFF records. The CFF was
produced by combining component food data in the Individual Foods File into a
single combination food record. In the sandwich combination example described
earlier, the CFF data for the "sandwich" were derived by summing food gram
weights and nutrient values for the bread, cheese, mustard, and lettuce
components of the sandwich. A single food record for the "cheese sandwich"
would appear in the CFF for this combination food. Food energy and nutrient
values for CFF records have distinctive variable names to distinguish them from
IFF food energy and nutrient variables.
Two criteria were required for inclusion in the CFF. First, the final dietary
recall status code (DRPSTAT) for the dietary recall had to be equal to 1, 2, or
5. Second, a multi-component food had to have been reported during the dietary
interview. Only the foods that were multi-component foods in the Individual
Foods File are included in the CFF. Some NHANES III examinees do not have any
records in the CFF because their recall did not include multi-component foods.
The single component combination foods have single component record foods in the
Individual Foods File; the Combination Food Flag (DRPCFF) value for single
component combination foods is equal to zero. When respondents were unable to
describe the components of a combination food such as a sandwich, the DDC
System's generic food entries were selected during the dietary interview. Many
brand name combination foods are single component combination foods. When the
generic and brand name combination food entries were selected, a standard foods
database recipe was used to assign the food code and nutrient values to the
combination food.
Single component generic and brand name combination foods were not included in
the CFF unless component foods were added to or were omitted from the base food.
For example, if a respondent added avocado slices to a base food item such as a
"fast food restaurant" sandwich, the resulting food was a combination food that
consisted of avocado and the restaurant sandwich. If major sandwich components
(salad dressing, cheese, etc.) were removed or omitted from a "fast food
restaurant" sandwich, the component foods that were eaten were entered
individually into the DDC System, thus creating a multi-component combination
food. The Individual Foods File and CFF data may be combined to identify all
reports of specific combination foods. The DRPFCODE in the Individual Foods
File, and the DRPCCODE in the CFF can be used to accomplish this.
The CFF data include food gram weights, nutrient data, and descriptive
information about the combination foods. A combination food code (DRPCCODE) was
assigned to many combination foods. The DRPCCODE was either a USDA food code or
a special food code that was developed by NCHS. NCHS created a small number of
special food codes because many combination foods reported during NHANES III
could not be coded with existing USDA food codes. For example, there were
numerous reports of tortilla combinations containing eggs and meat. NCHS also
added a small number of food codes for unusual food combinations. All
combination food codes (DRPCCODE) are linked to food code descriptions. The
look-up table called "Codebook" can be used to obtain text descriptions for
DRPCCODE.
Seven of the fifteen combination food types (DRPTCC) were assigned combination
food codes (DRPCCODE): sandwiches; mixed dishes; mixed dishes with additions;
meat, fish, and poultry with additions; soups and stews; other foods eaten
together; and tortilla combinations. The DRPCCODE was assigned by NCHS to
provide a means of describing the combination foods reported during NHANES III.
Many of the combination foods reported during the survey were difficult to code
due to the fact that unusual combinations were reported, equal amounts of
multiple components were reported as components of a combination food, and
numerous variations of foods were reported.
Eight combination food types have generic combination foods descriptions that
are based on their combination food type label (DRPTCC). Beverage combinations,
cereal with additions, vegetables with additions, desserts, vegetable
combinations, bread with additions, frozen meals, and salads have generic
combination type descriptions that are associated with DRPTCC. Many of the
combination foods reported in these categories were comprised of equal amounts
of component foods. Second, there were no USDA food codes for many of these
combination foods. For example, ready-to-eat breakfast cereals eaten with sugar
and fresh fruit, or unusual vegetable combinations, for example, do not have
USDA food codes. Additionally, many combination foods were foods eaten in
combination with other foods instead of being components of a single "food" such
as a sandwich, taco or stew.
It is suggested that analysts check the Individual Foods File first to review
the frequency of occurrence of single component and multi-component combination
foods. The food code, brand name, and food identification codes (DRPFCODE,
DRPCOMM, and DRPFID) variables are useful to describe single component
combination foods as well as specific components of multi-component combination
foods. A particular component food may appear in several combination type codes.
The CFF combination type code (DRPTCC) and combination food code (DRPCCODE)
variables are useful for planning analyses involving multi-component combination
foods. Detailed documentation is provided to describe the DRPCCODEs.
Notes to Analysts
There are two exceptions to the basic combination foods coding procedures
described earlier. The approach NCHS used to handle these data entry exceptions
is described.
Exception #1: There are single component foods in the CFF that were prepared
with more than one type of ingredient. In such cases, the only way to capture
specific ingredient information reported by the respondent using the DDC System
was to enter the food as a multi- component or combination food. One example
was homemade cookies prepared with equal amounts of butter and margarine. The
dietary interviewers were instructed to enter half of the total amount of
cookies eaten using margarine as an ingredient (component 1) and half of the
amount eaten using butter as an ingredient (component 2). To describe this
particular "combination," the combination type code (DRPTCC) "Other foods eaten
together" was used.
Exception #2- Modified Recipe Foods: The second example of single component
foods appearing as combination foods were those with modified recipes -- e.g.,
homemade cornbread prepared without fat. To report this modified cornbread,
NCHS and NCC developed a fat-free cornbread recipe. The ingredients were
entered into the DDC System as separate food components resulting in a
"combination food" as follows: corn meal (component 1), egg (component 2), milk
(component 3), and so forth. Modified recipe foods were coded using DRPTCC=8 or
"other foods eaten together".
In summary, combination foods were reported either as single component foods or
multi-component foods in the Individual Foods File. The CFF provides a single
record summary of the multi- component foods reported in the survey. The CFF
provides total gram weight and nutrient data for many combination foods reported
during the survey. The CFF is sorted by case number (CASE), meal number
(DRPMN), and food number(DRPFN).

CFF NOTES
DRPMN: Meal number
Meal numbers in recalls that were complete and reliable (DRPSTAT=1)
always begin with meal number=1; meal numbers increase by one for each
consecutive meal or snack reported during the dietary interview. If a
recall was coded reliable, but incomplete, (DRPSTAT=2) the meal
numbers may not be consecutive; information is reported for meals that
were reported during the dietary interview. Meal numbers are not
sorted by the time of day.
DRPFN: Food number
Every food has a food number. Foods are numbered within meals. If
the recall was coded complete and reliable (DRPSTAT=1), the first food
in each meal has a food number=1, and the other foods reported in the
same meal are numbered consecutively. If the recall was coded
reliable, but incomplete, (DRPSTAT=2) the food numbers may not be
consecutive; information is reported for all foods that were reported
by the respondent.
DRPCN: Component number
Foods are comprised of one or more components. An example of a single
component food is a slice of bread. A sandwich is an example of a
multi-component food or combination food; in this example, the
component foods consist of bread and sandwich filling components.
If a recall was coded reliable and complete (DRPSTAT=1), all
components are numbered consecutively within a given food; the
component numbering sequence for the first food begins with component
number=1 and increases by one for each additional component in the
food. The numbering sequence is repeated for each additional food
reported. If the recall was coded reliable, but
incomplete,(DRPSTAT=2) the component numbers may not be consecutive;
information is reported for the components that were reported by the
respondent.
DRPTCC: Combination type code
Fifteen combination food types were used to code the multi-component
combination foods reported during the survey. Each DRPTCC has a
generic description associated with it as follows:
*01 Sandwich
02 Frozen meal
03 Salad
*04 Mixed dish
*05 Mixed dish with additions
*06 Soup/Stew
07 Beverage
*08 Other foods eaten together
09 Bread with additions
10 Cereal with additions
*11 Meat, fish, or poultry with additions
12 Vegetables with additions
13 Vegetable combination
14 Dessert
*15 Tortilla with additions
* Assigned combination food codes (DRPCCODE)
DRPCCODE: Combination food code
NCHS assigned combination food codes to 7 of the 15 combination food
types. DRPCCODE text descriptions are found in a look-up table called
"Codebook". Special documentation was prepared for the CFF to provide
data users with additional information on combination foods coding.
The coding information is found in an Appendix section to the CFF.
