Description

MOVTVOMIT indicates whether the child had used a movement technique to treat nausea or vomiting. Please see the Comparability and Universe tabs for more information on how this variable was constructed.

Comparability

In 2007, nausea/vomiting were only included on the list of conditions that sample children could report treating with a CAM therapy. However, beginning in 2012, both sample adults and sample children aged 4-17 could report treating nausea/vomiting using a CAM therapy.

Prior to 2012, in universe persons were asked about a series of specific health problems, symptoms, or conditions they may have treated with different complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies. Beginning in 2012, persons 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 about these top three therapies. Respondents were only asked follow-up questions about the CAM therapies that they included among their top three CAM therapies. Persons who did not include movement techniques among their top three CAM therapies are recording as responding "no. For more information on the construction of this variable, please see TABDOM1.

MOVTVOMIT should be interpreted in conjunction with MOVALEXYR, MOVFELDYR, MOVPILATYR, and MOVTRAGYR, which indicate the specific movement technique used by the survey participant.
