The 1987-88 Nationwide Food Consumption Survey was conducted by the Human Nutrition Information Service (HNIS), U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, to provice data for estimates of food consumption by households and individuals in the 48 coterminous United States. Because of low response rates, the HNIS requested that the Life Sciences Research Office of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology conduct an independent review of the impact of nonresponse on estimates of food and nutrient intakes based on the data from this survey and to make recommendations about possible uses of the data. This report summarizes the analysis of that review.
