Description
For sample adults 18 and over who reported having a voice problem in the past 12 months that lasted one week or longer (VSLVWK), VLSVSLPYR reports if the respondent had seen a speech language pathologist or other health care professional for her/his voice problem in the past 12 months.
This variable is part of the Adult Voice, Speech, and Language Supplement, first included in the NHIS survey in 2012. The interviewer prefaced the supplement with the normative statement, "These next questions are about problems with your voice, swallowing, speech, or language. Please do not tell us about problems that resulted from drinking alcohol or were caused by use of illicit drugs."
The Adult Voice, Speech, and Language Supplement is the first-ever large scale communication supplement included in the NHIS survey. It includes data about causes, age of onset, severity, and healthcare utilization in relation to voice, speech, and language problems or difficulties.
