Description
For sample adults aged 40 years and older who ever had a sigmoidoscopy (SIGEV), SIGLY reports the main reason that the respondent underwent sigmoidoscopy.
The Field Representative's Manual advises that:
For any of the questions that asks, "What is the main reason you had this exam?". . . if the respondent had a problem, but was not sure which reason to pick, then record the first one she gives, as her initial thought is probably the best option.
See Survey Text and Codes tabs.
For more information, please see SIGEV.
