CARTaGENE: Environment and Nutrition Component
Source: Université de MontréalFormat: PDFAnnotation: CARTaGENE is a scientific project of the CHU (Centre Hospitalier Universitaire) Sainte-Justine in Montreal, Canada, which created an infrastructure developed in order to offer researchers the means to enhance their health investigations. This resource includes a health database and a bank of biological samples. The questionnaire examines environmental exposures and lifestyle by investigating residential and workplace environments and locations. This resource was identified by the NIH Disaster Research Response Program (DR2) for researchers looking for pre- and post-disaster data collection instruments.
Ease of Use in Disaster Setting: Difficult
Flesch-Kincaid Reading Level: Grade 5.7
Population: Adults Only
Length: 75 total questions and eight sections; however, for each section of the questionnaire, there is an opportunity for the participant to respond to a module repeatedly, up to 10 times. Questionnaire length is highly dependent on respondent's answers to various questions. Sub-questions and branching make the overall questionnaire length and time to complete somewhat unique to each individual, and are specific to the number of jobs, travel experiences, and residences, etc., a participant has or chooses to disclose.
