Exposure Assessment Methods
Exposure assessment research in the Applied Research Program's Risk Factor Monitoring and Methods Branch concentrates primarily on
improving self-reports and objective ascertainment of health behaviors and analytical
procedures for processing reported information. Major research areas are the development
and testing of innovative, technologically sophisticated tools to assess total diet and
physical activity, and short questionnaires to assess particular nutrients or food groups.
Additional areas of research include cognitive and psychometric research to improve
questionnaire design. Instruments and analytical procedures will be made available as they
are validated.
