- 1. Road Congestion Measures Using Instantaneous Information From the Canadian Vehicle Use Study (CVUS) ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-522-X201700014709Description:
Traffic congestion is not limited to large cities but is also becoming a problem in medium-size cities and to roads going through cities. Among a large variety of congestion measures, six were selected for the ease of aggregation and their capacity to use the instantaneous information from CVUS-light component in 2014. From the selected measures, the Index of Congestion is potentially the only one not biased. This measure is used to illustrate different dimension of congestion on the road network.

The Canadian Vehicle Use Study is a survey conducted by Transport Canada in partnership with Environment Canada, Natural Resources Canada and the provincial registrars. The study is divided in two components: the light vehicles like cars, minivans, SUVs and trucks with gross vehicle weight (GVW) less than 4.5 metric tons; the medium and heavy component with trucks of GVW of 4.5 metric tons and more. The study is the first that collects vehicle activity directly from the vehicle using electronic collection methods exclusively. This result in more information, which is very timely and reliable.

The Canadian Health Measures Survey uses accelerometry to collect physical activity and sedentary behaviour data. Between cycles 2 and 3, a transition was made from 60-second to 15-second epochs in accelerometry data for children aged 3 to 5. This study examines the impact of epoch length on physical activity and sedentary behaviour outcomes for children in this age range.

This study assesses three child-reported parenting behaviour scales (nurturance, rejection and monitoring) in the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth.
Release date: 2011-02-16 - 5. Direct health measures surveys in Finland ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-522-X200600110414Description:
In Finland the first national health examination surveys were carried out in the 1960s. Comprehensive surveys of nationally representative population samples have been carried out in 1978 to 1980 (The Mini-Finland Health Survey) and in 2000 to 2001 (Health 2000). Surveys of cardiovascular risk factors, so called FinRisk surveys, have assessed their trends every five years. The health examination surveys are an important tool of health monitoring, and, linked with registers also a rich source of data for epidemiological research. The paper also gives examples on reports published from several of these studies.

Starting in 1994, the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) will follow individuals and families for at least six years, tracking their labour market experiences, changes in income and family circumstances. An initial proposal for the content of SLID, entitled "Content of the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics : Discussion Paper", was distributed in February 1992.
That paper served as a background document for consultation with and a review by interested users. The content underwent significant change during this process. Based upon the revised content, a large-scale test of SLID will be conducted in February and May 1993.
The present document outlines the income and wealth content to be tested in May 1993. This document is really a continuation of SLID Research Paper Series 92-01A, which outlines the demographic and labour content used in the January /February 1993 test.

The testing of questionnaires with specialized populations such as Aboriginal people, homosexuals, bisexuals, children, victims of abuse brings challenges: identifying respondents, testing methodology, location of testing, respondent rapport and trust.

Release date: 2005-01-26 - 10. Usability testing and cognitive interviewing to support economic forms development for the 2002 U.S. economic census ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-522-X20010016289Description:
This paper discusses in detail issues dealing with the technical aspects of designing and conducting surveys. It is intended for an audience of survey methodologists.
Increasing demand for electronic reporting in establishment surveys has placed additional emphasis on incorporating usability into electronic forms. We are just beginning to understand the implications surrounding electronic forms design. Cognitive interviewing and usability testing are analogous in that both types of testing have similar goals: to build an end instrument (paper or electronic) that reduces both respondent burden and measurement error. Cognitive testing has greatly influenced paper forms design and can also be applied towards the development of electronic forms. Usability testing expands on existing cognitive testing methodology to include examination of the interaction between the respondent and the electronic form.
The upcoming U.S. 2002 Economic Census will offer businesses the ability to report information using electronic forms. The U.S. Census Bureau is creating an electronic forms style guide outlining the design standards to be used in electronic form creation. The style guide's design standards are based on usability principles, usability and cognitive test results, and Graphical User Interface standards. This paper highlights the major electronic forms design issues raised during the preparation of the style guide and describes how usability testing and cognitive interviewing resolved these issues.
