Monday, October 29, 2012: 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Oral
Population-based surveys and surveillance programs are rich sources of information. Findings from such data are generalizable to the population, thus often help to shape policies. Through analyses of population-based data sets, the four presenters of this session will report their findings related to the health of persons with disabilities.
Session Objectives: Explain benefits and limitations in using large scale population based data.
