This is a national population-based survey carried out by the Ministry of Health (MoH). As well as collecting information on adults, the survey covered 4921 children aged from birth – 14 years.
The research interviewed the child’s primary caregiver using the Child Health Questionaire Parent Form. Most questions ask parents to recall their child’s health status over the previous 4 weeks.
The survey covered:
- Health Status and Development
- Health Service Utilisation
- Health Risk and Protective Factors
- Socio-demographic factors
- Anthropometry
The topics align with MoH policy monitoring and policy areas, including the NZ Health Strategy.
