Respondents were randomized to receive a surv…

Ethnicity, violence, and the immigrant-guest metaphor in Kenya
Kenya's enduring ethnic violence is frequently explained with reference to the mobilization of ethnicity from above, and relatively little attention has been paid to the participation of ordinary people. Focusing on the violence that followed the 2007 general elections, this article explores how bottom-up processes of identification and violence interacted with incitement from above. It argues that autochthonous discourses of belonging and exclus…
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (Hipaa) Authorization and Survey Nonresponse Bias
OBJECTIVES: To extend earlier work (Beebe et al, Med Care. 2007;45:959-965) that demonstrated Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act authorization form (HAF) introduced potential nonresponse bias (toward healthier respondents). RESEARCH DESIGN: The sample frame from the earlier experiment was linked to administrative medical record data, enabling the comparison of background and clinical characteristics of each set of respondents (HA…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of including a HIPAA authorization form (HAF) on multiple measures of survey performance. RESEARCH DESIGN, SUBJECTS: A community survey of Olmsted County, Minnesota residents conducted between September 2005…
