  1. Emergency Nutrition Assessment (ENA)
    Source: Action Against Hunger (ACF)
    Date Published: 7/9/2015
    Format: Text
    Annotation: The purpose of the Emergency Nutrition Assessment (ENA) for Standardized Monitoring and Assessment of Relief and Transitions (SMART) is to make nutrition assessments and mortality rate calculations in emergency situations as easy and reliable as possible. It focuses on the most important indicators (anthropometric and mortality data), checks the plausibility of the entered data, and gives out an automatic report. Since the software cannot explain why children are malnourished or mortality rates are high, the results of the survey have to be complemented with other information (e.g., from the Food Security part of ENA or discussions with key informants); collection of this additional information on the household level has a high risk to reduce the quality of the anthropometric and mortality data. This resource was identified by the NIH Disaster Research Response Program (DR2) for researchers looking for pre- and post-disaster data collection instruments.

  2. Traumatic Exposure Severity Scale (TESS)
    Source: Kandilli Observatory And Earthquake Research Institute [Bogazici University]
    Date Published: 2001
    Format: Text
    Annotation: The Traumatic Exposure Severity Scale (TESS) is a 25-item self-administered instrument that measures the range of experiences and the distress caused by a destructive natural disaster; it is an attempt to measure both stressors and stress connected with a traumatic event. Although it has been developed exclusively with an earthquake population, it can easily be adapted for use in other major disaster contexts. The TESS functions in two ways: (a) as a measure of the occurrence of a range of traumatic experiences, and (b) as a measure of the amount of distress generated by each of those experiences. Measure items examine a wide range of stressors organized into five subscales, derived from factor analyses: Resource Loss, Damage to Home and Goods, Personal Harm, Concern for Significant Others, and Exposure to the Grotesque. This resource was identified by the NIH Disaster Research Response Program (DR2) for researchers looking for pre- and post-disaster data collection instruments.
