Questionnaire Development Resources

DCEG makes available questionnaires and questionnaire segments for use in a variety of epidemiological studies. Several questionnaires have been reviewed by the DCEG Technical Evaluation Committee and approved as representing reasonably clear questions that address the standard exposures of interest in the topic category. Questionnaires are available in Word documents. Topics include:

• Alcohol Use
• Hormonal and Reproductive Factors
• Smoking (Active)
• Smoking (Passive)
• Socioeconomic Factors

Additional questionnaire segments
