Comparability

Prior to 2012, sample adults who had seen a practitioner for a movement technique during the past 12 months and, in 2002, had used a movement technique for a specific health problem or condition were asked their reasons for using acupuncture.

Beginning in 2012, sample adults and sample children aged 4-17were 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 as well as reasons for and importance of use for these top three therapies. Persons who did not include movement techniques among their top three CAM therapies did not answer follow up questions for this therapy beginning in 2012 and are reported as responding "no".
