About this file

This document contains a request for proposal and amendment for a federal contract. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Health Statistics requires a 10-year cost plus fixed fee contract to fund the National Survey of Family Growth. The survey is an interview-based study described in the attached RFP. The CDC expects a single award and seeks responses on an unrestricted full and open competitive basis. The amendment does not appear to modify any requirements.

Calendar Intro (AE)

CALENDAR_1

AE_1. This is a calendar to help you remember when things happened, when they come up in the interview. At the end of the interview, you can keep it or, if you prefer, I can take it with me and shred it.

We will be talking about dates during the interview, and getting accurate dates is very important. At times I will ask you to enter specific events on the calendar. The boxes are small but you can use abbreviations that are meaningful to you. You may also wish to draw a line between the beginning and end of an event, such as a period of school or a pregnancy.

CALENDAR_2

AE_2. Notice that the calendar's boxes start with January [YEAR OF INTERVIEW - 3]. Some things that I ask about will have happened since then and others will have happened longer ago. The column labeled "Before January [YEAR OF INTERVIEW - 3]" is for you to note things that happened before January [YEAR OF INTERVIEW - 3].

CALENDAR_3

AE_3. Now I’d like you to write your date of birth on the calendar on the line marked “Your Date of Birth”. Then, find the month and year of your last birthday and write your age in the box right underneath it (read if necessary: the row labeled “Your Age”). Now, please write your age under your birth month for the other years on the calendar.

INTERVIEWER: Demonstrate, monitor, and help when needed.

ENTER [1] to continue

CALENDAR_4

AE_4. Sometimes we'll be asking how old you were at a particular event in your life. Remember that your age at the event will depend on whether it happened before or after your birthday in that year. You can use the calendar to help figure that out.
