- Articles and reports: 82-003-X201100411598Geography: CanadaDescription:
With longitudinal data, lifetime health status dynamics can be estimated by modeling trajectories. Health status trajectories measured by the Health Utilities Index Mark 3 (HUI3) modeled as a function of age alone and also of age and socio-economic covariates revealed non-normal residuals and variance estimation problems. The possibility of transforming the HUI3 distribution to obtain residuals that approximate a normal distribution was investigated.
Release date: 2011-12-21 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201100411589Geography: CanadaDescription:
The objective of this article is to illustrate how combining data from several cycles of the Canadian Community Health Survey increases analytical power and yields a clearer picture of immigrant health by identifying more precise subgroups. Examples are presented to demonstrate how indicators of health status vary by birthplace and period of immigration.
Release date: 2011-11-16 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201100311533Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study compares the bias in self-reported height, weight and body mass index in the 2008 and 2005 Canadian Community Health Surveys and the 2007 to 2009 Canadian Health Measures Survey. The feasibility of using correction equations to adjust self-reported 2008 Canadian Community Health Survey values to more closely approximate measured values is assessed.
Release date: 2011-08-17 - Articles and reports: 82-003-X201100311534Geography: CanadaDescription:
Using data from the 2007 to 2009 Canadian Health Measures Survey, this study investigates the bias that exists when height, weight and body mass index are based on parent-reported values. Factors associated with reporting error are used to establish the feasibility of developing correction equations to adjust parent-reported estimates.
Release date: 2011-08-17 - Articles and reports: 75F0002M2011001Description:
Households provide money, goods and services directly to help other households: these inter-household transfers add up to a sizable flow of economic resources between households. While measured by Statistics Canada surveys, inter-household transfers are not included in the recipient household's total income-except court-ordered alimony and child support payments. Because inter-household transfers affect a household's ability to consume goods (Smeeding and Weinburg, 2001), they are important in measuring a household's economic well-being. This paper examines the conceptual and measurement issues related to voluntary inter-household transfers, and provides a portrait of voluntary inter-household transfer in Canada. This paper uses the recent data on inter-household transfers from Statistics Canada's income, expenditure, and wealth surveys.
