Description:This report summarizes the findings from a research project designed to evaluate the Respiratory Health of Healthcare Workers Questionnaire for the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). The Respiratory Health of Healthcare Workers Questionnaire is part of a new study commissioned by NIOSH to identify modifiable occupational risk factors for asthma in healthcare that will inform strategies for prevention. This evaluation is based on 13 cognitive interviews that were conducted by the Questionnaire Design Research Laboratory (QDRL) at the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). Cognitive interviewing is a qualitative question evaluation method used to evaluate the validity of survey questions (Willis 2005; Miller 2011). The main goals of the project were to: 1) assess respondents’ interpretation of the survey questions, 2) identify any potential question response problems that could lead to response error in the survey data, and 3) identify any usability issues with the self-administered web questionnaire. The following report summarizes the cognitive interviewing methodology and describes how data analysis was conducted. An overview of the findings is then presented, followed by a question by question review of the findings.
