Many researches when beginning research want to use a survey but do not know what to use.  Often they try to construct their own, which is a  mistake. It is much better to use a well used existing survey where there are normative data and standardized translation.  We therefore have collected surveys on topics that many investigators would use.

 

1. Smoking. The Tobacco Questions for Surveys (TQS) Guide provides a standard set of questions on tobacco use, and key tobacco control measures. These measures have been defined by the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO FCTC).

2. Physical Activity. Physical activity is an important component to monitor in populations. Also the assessment of Physical activity is a component of many prospective and case control studies.  We have selected a survey developed for the WHO as it has been employed for 1000s of individuals and has been translated into different languages.
