Description
For sample adults, HEALTHMENT reports the respondent's self-assessed mental health, including mood and ability to think, on a scale from "poor" to "excellent".
HEALTHMENT was first introduced in 2010 as part of the Cancer Control supplement, which asks questions about diet and nutrition, physical activity, tobacco, cancer screening, genetic testing, family history, and survivorship. For more information please use the IPUMS NHIS search function and drop-down menus.
