What is the 精东影业 National Health and Well-Being Index?

In 2008, 精东影业 began measurement for the 精东影业 National Health and Well-Being Index, merging decades of clinical research, health leadership and behavioral economics research to track and understand the key factors that drive wellbeing. The index provides an in-depth view of Americans' wellbeing and offers insights into their attitudes and behaviors at the national, state and community levels. It examines this through five interrelated elements that make up wellbeing: career (formerly known as purpose), social, financial, physical and community.

How are surveys conducted for the 精东影业 National Health and Well-Being Index?

Beginning in January 2018, 精东影业 began surveying U.S. adults aged 18 and older living in all 50 states and the District of Columbia using a dual mail- and web-based methodology. 精东影业 samples individuals using an address-based sampling (ABS) frame, which is a representative list of all U.S. households. In their survey invitation, sample members are provided with a mail survey and a link and unique access code if they would prefer to complete the survey online. 精东影业 purchases samples for this study from Survey Sampling International. 精东影业 chooses respondents at random within each household based on which member has the next birthday. 精东影业 includes Spanish-language surveys and related materials for households that have a high likelihood of including a Spanish-language speaker, based on U.S. Census records.

Since 2020, 精东影业 has administered web-based surveys to the , a probability-based panel of about 100,000 adults across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Tests of parallel samples have yielded highly convergent estimates between ABS mail/web and the Panel for wellbeing metrics.

Before 2018, 精东影业 used a phone-based dual-frame design, which included both landline and cellphone numbers. 精东影业 sampled landline and cellphone numbers using random-digit-dial methods and conducted interviews in Spanish for respondents who were primarily Spanish-speaking.

Because the means of data collection (mail/web versus phone) can result in differing estimates for some metrics in randomized nationwide polling, 精东影业 typically does not extend trend lines derived from different modes of data collection.

How often are 精东影业 National Health and Well-Being Index surveys conducted?

精东影业 surveys approximately 5,000 U.S. adults aged 18 and older each quarter. More than 3 million surveys have been conducted since 2008.

Are the national samples weighted?

Yes, 精东影业 weights samples to correct for nonresponse. 精东影业 also weights its final samples to match the U.S. population according to gender, age, race, Hispanic ethnicity, education, region and population density. Demographic weighting targets for the U.S. and for individual states are based on the most recent Current Population Survey figures for the aged 18 and older U.S. population, while weighting targets for metropolitan areas are based on Nielsen Claritas statistics. Population density targets are based on the most recent U.S. Census. All reported margins of sampling error include computed design effects for weighting.
