Session: Preventing and compensating for missing biosocial data in cross-sectional analysis of longitudinal surveys

Time: Tuesday 3rd July, 10:00 - 12:30

Convenor:

Professor Natalie Shlomo (University of Manchester)


Abstract Details

We present on-going research on nonresponse in biosocial data. The first two papers are based on compensating for missing data in statistical analyses of biomarkers with results from a large simulation study (paper 1) and an application studying the effect of socio-economic position on the biomarker cortisol (paper 2). The final two papers examine the impact of nurse characteristics on the quality of survey response with an analysis of the variance of responses to biomarker collection in ELSA (paper 3) and a comparative study from BCS70 assessing interviewer and then nurse visit versus nurse only interviewing (paper 4).
