A field worker's guide to a nutritional status survey.
This guide has been prepared specifically for the medical worker in a developing country who has little experience for survey methodology and few outside sources on which to draw. All, or only portions of the guide, may be used as local needs dictate. It provides an outline of necessary preparations, sampling, field organization, measuring techniques and recording form. To aid the statistical treatment and presentation of the data, a sample recording form is given together with coding instructions and output table layout.
