| dc.description | This report details the findings of the 2011 Pfizer Health Index. This research series has been underway since 2005 and is an important barometer of the health status of the Irish population. A comprehensive questionnaire is addressed to a nationally representative sample of adults aged 16 and over. Fieldwork was undertaken face-to-face and in-home at 63 sampling points nationwide from 22nd July to 5th August 2011. The survey is designed, administered and reported by Behaviour & Attitudes and the company conforms with ESOMAR, Market Research Society and all other relevant standards and guidelines vis-à-vis data quality and content sensitivity. In the 2011 study, the data on disease incidences has been presented cumulated with the four preceding years of research. This enables data for diseases to be shown based on a sample of more than 5,000 respondents and reduces the error margin of the data to a very low level. A specific focus of the 2011 survey was to explore female health and indeed attitudes of women to work, income and raising children. The broad content of the 2011 Pfizer Health Index matches previous studies and the method of administration and analysis is maintained from year to year, although new topics and focus have been incorporated annually. The 2011 survey updates an important barometer of recession impact, initially included in 2009 and updated in 2010. The data in this survey can be quoted with a degree of statistical accuracy of +/- 3.5 percentage points, although as commented before, the data on disease incidence and impact has an error margin that, at its greatest, stands at 1½ percentage points. All data should be quoted with reference to the Pfizer Health Index 2011 and copyright in the data is retained by Pfizer and Behaviour & Attitudes. | en_GB |
