    Date Published: 1/31/2014
    Format: Text
    Annotation: This resource provides 794 standard measures related to complex diseases, phenotypic traits, and environmental exposures. Use of PhenX measures facilitates combining data from a variety of studies, and makes it easy for investigators to expand a study design beyond the primary research focus. It includes these sections relevant to post-disaster data collection: Alcohol Substance Abuse, Demographics, Environmental Exposure, Psychiatric Psychosocial, and Social Environments. This resource was identified by the NIH Disaster Research Response Program (DR2) for researchers looking for pre- and post-disaster data collection instruments....[See more] [See less]

  2. NIH (National Institutes of Health) Toolbox for the Assessment of Neurological and Behavioral Function
    Source: National Institutes of Health (NIH)
    Date Published: 10/2012
    Format: Text
    Annotation: This toolbox is a multi-dimensional set of brief measures assessing cognitive, emotional, motor, and sensory function from ages 3 to 85, meeting the need for a standard set of measures that can be used as a "common currency" across diverse study designs and settings. It uses multiple constructs of the four domains: Cognition, Emotion, Motor, and Sensation. Cognition and Emotion have the more relevant instruments for post-disaster data collection. Cognition includes Executive Function, Attention, Episodic Memory, Language, Processing Speed, and Working Memory. Emotion includes Psychological Well-Being, Social Relationships, Stress and Self Efficacy, and Negative Affect.

  4. Assessment Center
    Source: Northwestern University
    Date Published: 6/2011
    Format: Text
    Annotation: Assessment Center is a free, online data collection tool that enables researchers to create study-specific websites for capturing participant data securely online. Studies can include measures within the Assessment Center library, as well as custom instruments entered by the researcher. The instrument library includes self- and proxy-report short forms, computerized adaptive tests (CATs), and batteries or profiles from Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS), Quality of Life in Neurological Diseases (Neuro-QoL), NIH Toolbox, and Health LiTT.

    Among other features, Assessment Center also enables downloading library instruments for administration on paper; customization of items or instruments (e.g., format, randomization, skip patterns); real-time scoring of CATs and short forms; storage of protected health information (PHI) in a separate, secure database; automated accrual reports; real-time data export; and ability to capture endorsement of online consent forms.

    Format: Text
    Annotation: The mission of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Social Science Data Archive (SSDA) is to provide a foundation for social science research with UCLA faculty support throughout an entire research project involving original data collection or the reuse of publicly available studies. The Dataverse consists of unique surveys, enumerations, public opinion polls, and de-identified administrative records. Topics of studies include political attitudes and behavior; social and economic attitudes and behaviors; studies of health status and health outcomes; families, children, and women; international surveys of occupational and social mobility; the Los Angeles County Social Surveys; California Polls; and census data for the United States and other countries. In addition, the SSDA provides access to data from the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research and the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research. Materials from SSDA are used with software programs, such as SPSS, SAS, STATA, and R to carry out statistical analysis. Assistance in using statistical packages is provided by the IDRE Statistical consulting office.
