Comparability

Prior to 2012, sample adults who had seen a practitioner for homeopathic treatment during the past 12 months were asked their reasons for using homeopathic treatment.

Beginning in 2012, sample adults and sample children were instead asked to select three of sixteen therapies that were most important and only asked the series of questions related to treating health problems, symptoms, or conditions as well as the reasons and importance of use of these top three therapies. Persons who did not include homeopathic treatment among their top three CAM therapies did not answer follow up questions for this therapy beginning in 2012 and are reported as responding "no."
