2015 DataHaven Community Wellbeing Survey Groton, CT Crosstabs How To Read This Document These crosstabs present question-­‐by-­‐question weighted estimates from the 2015 DataHaven Community Wellbeing Survey, disaggregated by various demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. Each estimate represents how a group of respondents – weighted to be representative of the population within the specified geographic area – answered the question shown. Please use caution in interpreting the information here. We recommend contacting DataHaven with any questions. DataHaven would be happy to help you confirm whether the information in this document is being cited in a correct way, and possibly to recommend or assist you with further analysis that might be most useful to your work. In particular, please be aware of “skip patterns” in the survey, such as “Q23E1. (If have asthma) During the past 30 days, how often have you used a prescription asthma inhaler during an asthma attack to stop it?” Only adults who indicated in the previous question that they been diagnosed with asthma were asked to answer this question, so the estimates here show the percentages of adults with asthma who have used inhalers, not the percentages of all adults who have used them. Methodology The DataHaven Community Wellbeing Survey was designed by DataHaven in consultation with dozens of local, statewide, and national survey research experts and local partners, in many cases drawing upon questions used in previous community surveys throughout the region. On behalf of DataHaven, the Siena College Research Institute (SRI) conducted the survey of 16,820 residents of the state of Connecticut, and from specific zip codes in Westchester County in New York State. Surveys were conducted from April 26 through October 24, 2015. Residents age 18 and older were interviewed from within all 169 towns in Connecticut and seven zip codes in New York. Interviews were conducted in English and Spanish. The overall Connecticut sample of 16,219 was weighted by age, gender, reported race, and county to ensure statistical representativeness. In addition to demographic parameters, the Connecticut statewide sample was also weighted to match current patterns of telephone status (landline only, cell phone only or both), based on the state-­‐level estimates from the National Health Interview Survey. Local-­‐
level samples like those for Groton were weighted using the same parameters but applied at a local level (town instead of county). Respondents were contacted via landline or cell phone. The design of the landline sample was conducted so as to ensure the selection of both listed and unlisted telephone numbers, using random digit dialing (RDD). The cell phone sample was drawn from a sample of dedicated wireless telephone exchanges from within Connecticut and the specified zip codes within New York State. Respondents were screened for residence in the state of Connecticut or one of the seven zip codes in New York. There were a total of 4,955 respondents who completed the survey on a cell phone and 11,865 who completed it on a landline. Within Connecticut, 4,817 respondents completed the survey on a cell phone and 11,402 completed it on a landline. In addition to the traditional RDD samples for landline and cell, we augmented the sample using a stratified sampling technique. These stratified samples remained RDD for both landline and cell but used information from the U.S. Census so as to enhance the composition of the sample, including targeted regions, urban centers, and high concentrations of minority populations. The primary supplier of the RDD landline and cell phone samples was Survey Sampling International (SSI) of Shelton, Connecticut. Additionally, for the cell phone sample we utilized SSI’s Wireless LITe database which enabled the targeting of cell phone sample by region or zip code, using the area associated with the billing address. In addition to the ability to target cell phone sample, utilizing this database allowed the inclusion of non-­‐Connecticut and Westchester County telephone numbers as someone may have moved and their billing address is in the area but their cell phone number is not a ‘typical’ Connecticut or Westchester County telephone number (i.e., not a 203, 860 or 914 area code). Again, all of these respondents were screened for residence in the qualifying area before continuing. Reported Margins of Error Margins of error are shown at the top of the crosstab. The “maximum” margin of error for the Connecticut sample of 16,219 adults is +/-­‐ 1.1% with a 95% confidence interval, including the design effects resulting from weighting. This means that in 95 out of every 100 samples of the same size and type, the results that we obtain would vary by no more than plus or minus 1.1 percentage points from the result that we would get if we could interview every single member of the adult population of Connecticut. This maximum margin of error applies when an observed percentage is 50%, and the margin of error becomes smaller as the percentage approaches the extremes of 0% or 100%. Margins of error are higher for small geographic or population groups. For the town of Groton, the “maximum” margin of error for the sample of 250 adults is +/-­‐ 8.6%.
