Description
For sample adults ages 18 and older who had a problem understanding words or sentences in the past 12 months that lasted for at least a week, VSLLGSLPYR reports whether they saw a speech-language pathologist (SLP) or other health care professional for language problems in the past year.
VSLLGSLPYR is part of the Adult Voice, Speech and Language Supplement. For related variables and more information, please use the IPUMS NHIS search function and drop-down menus, or see VSLDIAG, which reports on diagnosis, VSLVDAYS, which reports on the problem duration and extent, and VSLVSLPYR, which reports on treatment.
