pilot test use only. OMB will expect the final instrument to be
reduced in length. In addition, use of alcohol, drug abuse,
depression and DIS schedules will only be approved for inclusion in
the full-field study if validity and reliability with a Hispanic
population can be demonstrated, only if response rates to these
items are high, and only if inclusion of these items can be
demonstrated not to interfere with responses or response rates to
other sections of HANES.
