Aims: A common objective of epidemiological surveys is to provide
population-level estimates of health indicators. Survey results tend to be
biased under selective non-participation. One approach to bias reduction
is to collect information about non-participants by contacting them again
and asking them to fill in a questionnaire. This information is called recontact data, and it allows to adjust the estimates for non-participation.
Methods: We analyse data from the FINRISK 2012 survey, where
re-contact data were collected. We assume that the respondents of the recontact survey are similar to the remaining non-participants with respect
to the health given their available background information. Validity of
this assumption is evaluated based on the hospitalization data obtained
through record linkage of survey data to the administrative registers. Using this assumption and multiple imputation, we estimate the prevalences
of daily smoking and heavy alcohol consumption and compare them to es1
timates obtained with a commonly used assumption that the participants
represent the entire target group.
Results: This approach produces higher prevalence estimates than
what is estimated from participants only. Among men, smoking prevalence estimate was 28.5% (23.2% for participants), heavy alcohol consumption prevalence was 9.4% (6.8% for participants). Among women,
smoking prevalence was 19.0% (16.5% for participants) and heavy alcohol
consumption 4.8% (3.0% for participants).
Conclusion: Utilization of re-contact data is a useful method to adjust for non-participation bias on population estimates in epidemiological
surveys.

Recommendations for design and analysis of health examination surveys under selective non-participation
Karvanen, Juha; Härkänen, Tommi; Reinikainen, Jaakko; Tolonen, Hanna (Oxford University Press, 2019)Background The decreasing participation rates and selective non-participation peril the representativeness of health examination surveys (HESs). Methods Finnish HESs conducted in 1972–2012 are used to demonstrate that ... -
Non-participation modestly increased with distance to the examination clinic among adults in Finnish health examination surveys
Reinikainen, Jaakko; Saarsalmi, Perttu; Härkänen, Tommi; Jousilahti, Pekka; Karvanen, Juha; Männistö, Satu; Tolonen, Hanna (Sage, 2018)Aims: Health examinaton surveys (HES) provide important informaton about populaton health and health related factors, but declining partcipaton rates threaten the representatveness of collected data. It is hard to conduct ... -
Statistical modelling of selective non-participation in health examination surveys
Kopra, Juho (University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Health examination surveys aim to collect reliable information on the health and risk factors of a population of interest. Missing data occur when some invitees do not participate the survey. If non-participation is ... -
Follow-up data improve the estimation of the prevalence of heavy alcohol consumption
Kopra, Juho; Mäkelä, Pia; Tolonen, Hanna; Jousilahti, Pekka; Karvanen, Juha (Oxford University Press, 2018)Aims. We aim to adjust for potential non-participation bias in the prevalence of heavy alcohol consumption. Methods. Population survey data from Finnish health examination surveys conducted in 1987–2007 were linked to ... -
