• Description:
  The Michigan Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (MiBRFSS) is an annual, state-level telephone survey of Michigan residents, aged 18 years and older funded by the CDC. All 50 states have similar surveys. This survey provides state-specific, population-based estimates of the prevalence of various behaviors, medical conditions, and preventive health care practices among Michigan adults. Estimates based on an iterative proportional fitting methodology are weighted to adjust for the probabilities of selection and a raking adjustment factor to adjust for the distribution of the Michigan adult population by telephone source (landline or cell phone), detailed race/ethnicity, education level, marital status, age by gender, gender by race/ethnicity, age by race/ethnicity, and renter/owner status. The results of the sample are presented as weighted percentages with 95% confidence limits. Limitations of this data are that they are self-reported responses; there is no review of medical records to check the validity of the responses; and whether the results are representative for the whole population, given a 50% response rate. Despite these limitations the data is widely used to measure the prevalence of different diseases and behaviors. [Description provided by NIOSH]
