Summary:

The basic purpose of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) is to obtain information about the amount and distribution of illness, its effects in terms of disability and chronic impairments, and the kinds of health services people receive. Person variables include sex, age, race, marital status, veteran status, education, income, industry and occupation codes, and limits on activity. This AIDS Supplement also features information on knowledge and attitudes towards the disease. Variables include questions on the effects of AIDS, how the disease is spread, sources of information on AIDS, if respondent had had the AIDS blood test, how to avoid getting the disease, the respondent's perceived chance of getting AIDS, and the respondent's perception of the value of the AIDS blood test.
