Description
For sample adults who had a significant non-repetitive strain injury in the past 3 months and sample children who had a significant injury in the past 3 months (INJSIGNFCNT), INJSIGHOME reports whether the injury happened at home. If necessary, interviewers elaborated by asking whether the injury happened at home, including the yards, garage, basement, and other places on the home property.
INJSIGHOME is part of the rotating core NHIS questions on sudden injury. For other core sudden injury and injury-related variables, please see INJANY.
