Abstract

Graduates of Master of Public Health programs may lack appropriate skills in data analysis, and would benefit from practice with research data. Datasets that contain health information relevant to student interests, and that are appropriate sizes for class use can be difficult to locate. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey is a study that collects both survey and health examination information from a national sample every 2 years. I present a sample of this dataset, with examples of how to use it for human health related questions. Instructions for how to access and create additional, customized datasets are also provided. Instructors may consider investigating this rich data source and providing students with subsets of these data for class assignments, projects and master’s theses.
将全国健康与营养状况调查作为向公共卫生专业学生教授数据分析的工具
公共卫生硕士课程的毕业生可能缺乏适当的数据分析技能,如果能在研究数据方面进行练习,他们将受益匪浅。很难找到包含与学生兴趣相关的健康信息,且规模适合课堂使用的数据集。全国健康与营养调查是一项每两年从全国样本中收集调查和健康检查信息的研究。我将介绍该数据集的一个样本,并举例说明如何将其用于人类健康相关的问题。此外,还提供了如何访问和创建其他定制数据集的说明。教师可以考虑研究这一丰富的数据源,并为学生提供这些数据的子集,用于课堂作业、项目和硕士论文。
