Biosocial Surveys, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

Biosocial Surveys analyzes the latest research on the increasing number of multipurpose household surveys that collect biological data along with the more familiar interviewera "respondent information.

This book serves as a follow-up to the 2003 volume, Cells and Surveys: Should Biological Measures Be Included in Social Science Research? and asks these questions: What have the social sciences, especially demography, learned from those efforts and the greater interdisciplinary communication that has resulted from them?

Which biological or genetic information has proven most useful to researchers?

How can better models be developed to help integrate biological and social science information in ways that can broaden scientific understanding?

This volume contains a collection of 17 papers by distinguished experts in demography, biology, economics, epidemiology, and survey methodology.

It is an invaluable sourcebook for social and behavioral science researchers who are working with biosocial data.
