Interviews telephone

Identify key individuals needed for access and information A person familiar with the HVAC systems in the building should be available to assist the investigator at any time during the onsite phase. Individuals who have complained or who are in charge of potential sources (e.g., housekeeping, non- HVAC equipment) should be aware that their information is important and should be contacted for appointments or telephone interviews if they will not be available during the onsite visit. 

If you gather most of your information through surveys, it is well to conduct spot checks, perhaps through telephone interviews.

To permit inferences about the target population, probability sampling methods will be used in designing the survey. Sample collection and interview procedures being considered include face to face interviews using field study staff, random digit dialing telephone interviews or some combination of these procedures. The face to face procedure is the most likely method at the present time and will be described here to illustrate the manner in which the probability sample will be selected.

Telephone interviews may be appropriate as an initial interview to determine if a face-to-face interview is required. For example, a telephone interview may precede an interviewing trip. It may also be appropriate to conduct an interview by telephone if the witness ... 

During telephone interviews, take as many notes as possible. The witness will not be able to see what you are doing, so if you need a moment or two to complete note-taking efforts, tell the witness. If practical, read the notes back to the witness at the end to confirm your understanding of the witness s comments.

The CHPA commissioned a study entitled Self-Care in the New Millenium American Attitudes Toward Maintaining Personal Health and Treatment. They conducted 1505 telephone interviews in January of 2001, using random telephone numbers. African-Americans and Hispanics were oversampled to conduct in-depth subgroup analysis. Of particular interest is the finding that 96% of respondents felt confident that they could take care of their own health. This might explain why so many people want access to pharmacologically active botanicals. These products do not require a prescription and thus allow patients to treat themselves. 

In 1997, Landmark Healthcare Inc. commissioned a report entitled The Landmark Report on Public Perceptions of Alternative Care. They conducted 1500 telephone interviews in November 1997, using random digit selection. The survey included a representative sample of minority patients—85%o Caucasian, 8%o African-Americans, and 3% Hispanic. The survey found that 17%o of the U.S. population used botanical dietary supplements in the past year and even more striking, 75 /o of the U.S. population was most likely to use botanical products. Eighty-five percent of those reported to have taken a botanical supplement self-prescribed and self-administered the products. Three-fourths of patients who used alternative forms of care did so in conjunction with conventional medicine, yet 15% of patients replaced their conventional treatment with alternative care (16).

In a case-control study in the north of Sweden, Hallquist et al. (1993) compared 188 men and women aged 20-70 years who had thyroid cancer with age- and sex-matched controls (two per case) selected from a register of the local population. The cases were identified retrospectively from a cancer registry and excluded a proportion of patients (19%) who had died by the time of the study. Exposure to potential risk factors, including chlorophenols, was ascertained by postal questionnaire with a supplementary telephone interview if answers were incomplete. The response rates for the cases and controls were 95% and 90%, respectively. Of the 171 cases analysed, 107 had papillary tumours. Four cases and three controls reported exposure to chlorophenols (odds ratio, 2.8 95% CI, 0.5-18). [The Working Group noted that the method of statistical analysis was not the most appropriate for individually matched data, but this is unlikely to have produced serious bias.]...
