Description
PSALNO reports the number of units of time since the respondent's last PSA test. In 2003 and earlier, this question was asked of male sample respondents aged 40 years and older who ever had a PSA test (PSAEV). In 2005 forward, this question was asked of male sample respondents aged 40 years and older who ever had a PSA test (PSAEV) and who chose to answer in number and time period format. This variable accompanies PSALTP, which reports the type of time period that go with the units.
[show more]In the survey form from all years except 1999, interviewers were directed to enter '95' if the respondent replied with a number greater than or equal to 95. Starting in 2005, the form instructed interviewers to, "Enter number for time since last PSA test."
In some years, respondents could have alternatively chosen to answer this question using the month/year format. The variables for responses in this format are PSALDMO (month of last PSA test) and PSALDYR (year of last PSA test).
For more information, please see PSAEV.
