Description

CXRAYREX reports responses to the question, "About how long has it been since you had a chest x-ray?" in single years, up to 50+ years.

This question was part of the 1982 survey supplement dealing with the use of preventive care services. Responses to the same question are also given in CXRAYRS, with responses topcoded at 10+ years to achieve comparability with a similar question in the 1973 preventive care supplement.

For more information about this question, including the emphasis on self-reporting rather than proxy reporting, see CXRAYRS.
