Description
For sample adults in 2008 who fell in the past 12 months (FELYR) sample adults in 2016 who fell at least once a month in the past 12 months (FELMONTHLYR), FELWHALC indicates whether persons fell (during the past 12 months) because they drank too much alcohol. Earlier in the survey, interviewers told persons that a fall was defined as, "unexpectedly dropping to the floor or ground from a standing, walking or bending position."
The question for this variable occurred as part of the Sample Adult Balance Supplement, sponsored by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders.
