Survey Research
CEPEG’s survey research unit has expertise and extensive experience in all aspects of survey research, from sampling design and instrument development to data collection and analysis. Our analysts have advanced training in complex sampling theory and methodology. Our survey unit supports collection by telephone, online, and/or postal mail. During the past 20 years we have directed Colorado’s population survey of adult health, which interviews approximately 12,000 residents every three years on attitudes and behaviors related to tobacco and chronic disease. We maintain a population-based panel of survey respondents who are willing to be re-interviewed annually, and we have interviewed the panel and other prescreened respondents on a wide range of topics, from Covid-19 effects on health behaviors to cancer screening behaviors and knowledge, gun safety and medication storage in homes, policy impacts, program process improvement, and patient outreach and recall efforts. Our staff work closely with partner organizations to match appropriate methods with data needs.

We pioneered the Attitudes and Behaviors Survey (TABS) on Health
(previously the Colorado Tobacco Attitudes and Behaviors Survey), one of
Colorado’s key tobacco surveillance efforts, and continue to provide
quality assurance and data analytics
for the survey. Launched in 2001, TABS on Health is a
population-level survey of Colorado adults to identify and understand
influential factors that public health programs can address to improve
the health of our state.
