Data Tables: Results from USDA's 1996 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes byIndividuals and 1996 Diet and Health Knowledge Survey

摘要

Results from the third year of USDA's 10th nationwide food consumption survey arecontained in this set of tables. In 1996, 5,188 people nationwide participated in the Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals (CSFII), popularly known as the What We Eat in America Survey. Participants recalled food intake information for 2 separate days. In addition, 1,920 of them age 20 years or older answered questions on their attitudes and knowledge about dietary guidance and health in the follow-up Diet and Health Knowledge Survey (DHKS). The tables provide national probability estimates for the U.S. population. The results are weighted to adjust for differential rates of sample selection and nonresponse and to calibrate the sample to match population characteristics that are correlated with eating behavior.
