Screening and Recruitment Question Bank
CDC NCEZID
The following is a collection of potential questions (question bank) to be used in recruiting and screening participants for research on behalf of NCEZID. These recruitment questions can be used to screen participants for surveys, focus groups, or in-depth interviews (in addition to many other methodologies).
