Proposed Food Security Supplement Test Questionnaire

TEST QUESTIONNAIRE – SEPTEMBER 2020 FOOD SECURITY SUPPLEMENT
Test Questionnaire to test recommended changes from Census Cognitive Testing
Draft test questionnaire January 3, 2020
NOTE: This test version starts with the 2019 CPS-FSS questionnaire. HRPOOR may need to be updated
before final production in September 2020. Changes from 2018 CPS-FSS to 2019 CPS-FSS
questionnaire: There are updates to the POORCK specification (HRPOOR variable). Three new
household size and income combinations will be screened into the module in 2019 with POOR now equal
to 1 for these groups. Changes are highlighted in yellow below in POORCK specification and shown
here:
NUMHOU=1 and FAMINC=8 set POOR=1
NUMHOU=4 and FAMINC=12 set POOR=1
NUMHOU=5 and FAMINC=13 set POOR=1
NOTE: Update year where appropriate to 2020. Update month where appropriate from December to
September. Changes for test are highlighted in yellow.

[Lead for two or more person households] This month we are asking some questions
about food used in your household and the ways you are managing to meet your
food needs. (/The best person to answer would be the adult most knowledgeable
about food shopping and meal preparation. Would that be you or someone else?)
[Change respondent if needed and available, otherwise continue with current respondent]
[If group quarters, go to S9]
I. FOOD EXPENDITURES
S1A

If more than one HHMEM=1 has an AGE equal to or greater than 10 fill with
second option else fill with first option.
These first questions are about all the places at which you bought food LAST
WEEK. By LAST WEEK, I mean from Sunday through Saturday.
First, did (you/anyone in your household) shop for food at a supermarket,
grocery store, Walmart or Target LAST WEEK?
<1>
<2>

Yes
No

If onpath entry, D or R in S1A then set SCOMPL=1 otherwise set SCOMPL=0

S1B

If more than one HHMEM=1 has an AGE equal to or greater than 10 fill
with second option else fill with first option.
Think about other places where people buy food, such as dollar stores,
pharmacies, club stores, farmers markets, or online. Did (you/anyone in your
household) buy food from any stores such as these LAST WEEK?
<1>
<2>

Yes

Now I'm going to ask you about the TOTAL amount you spent on food
LAST WEEK in all the places where you bought food. Then, since LAST
WEEK may have been unusual for you, I will ask about the amount you
USUALLY spend.

(Let's see, it seems that (you/your household) did not buy any food LAST WEEK. /Let's see, (you/your household) spent about (fill with S8O) on food LAST WEEK.) Now think about how much (you/anyone in your household) USUALLY (spend/spends). How much (do you/does your household) USUALLY spend on food at all the different places we've been talking about IN A WEEK? (Please include any purchases made with or food stamp benefits).

S8ZA If that is because you shop for food only once in awhile, how much would you say you spend in total in a month? 14 NOTE: This question previously asked “If that is because you shop for food infrequently, how much would the weekly average be over several weeks?”. The previous version asked the respondent to determine the weekly average. The new question asks the respondent how much they spend in a month. The survey software instrument will then calculate the weekly average for the respondent. Census will need to provide guidance on how this change should be reflected in the interviewer instructions below. We still want to enter a weekly average in the data even though the question now asks for a monthly average. Enter <1> for whole dollar amount or if the amount really is zero Enter <2> if respondent can only give range Blind or If entry is D or R store in S8OU <1> GOTO S8Z <2> GOTO S8ZCK1A GOTO S9 S8Z Enter whole dollar amount $_ _ _.00 Store amount in S8OU NOTE: Divide by 4 before storing in S8OU (see note at top of page 14)? <0> GOTO S8RC <1-450> GOTO S8B GOTO S8RC S8ZCK1A **************DO NOT READ TO RESPONDENT ******************* Enter range reported by respondent _ _ _.00 If entry is D or R, store in S8OU <1-999> GOTO S8ZCK1B GOTO S9 S8ZCK1B Enter range reported by respondent _ _ _.00 If entry is D or R, store in S8OU <1-999> GOTO S8ZRG 15 GOTO S9 S8ZRG Add the entries in S8ZCK1A and S8ZCK1B and divide by 2.

Store the calculated value in S8DO. GOTO S9. 18 III. FOOD SUFFICIENCY AND FOOD SECURITY S9_Lead The next questions are about the food eaten in your household in the last 12 months, since September of last year, and whether you were able to afford the food you need. S9 In the last 12 months, since September of last year, did you ever run short of money and try to make your food or your food money go further? <1> Yes (GO TO SS1) <2 > No (GO TO SS1) Blind or (GO TO SS1) If NUMHOU = 1 then fill parenthetical with first option else fill with second option.

Now I'm going to read you several statements that people have made about their food situation. For these statements, please tell me whether the 19 statement was OFTEN true, SOMETIMES true, or NEVER true for (you/your household) in the last 12 months. The first statement is "(I/We) worried whether (my/our) food would run out before (I/we) got money to buy more."
