The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) series

(formerly titled National Household Survey on Drug Abuse) measures the

prevalence and correlates of drug use in the United States. The

surveys are designed to provide quarterly, as well as annual,

estimates. Information is provided on the use of illicit drugs,

alcohol, and tobacco among members of United States households aged 12

and older. Questions included age at first use as well as lifetime,

annual, and past-month usage for the following drug classes:

marijuana, cocaine (and crack), hallucinogens, heroin, inhalants,

alcohol, tobacco, and nonmedical use of prescription drugs, including

pain relievers, tranquilizers, stimulants, and sedatives. The survey

covered substance abuse treatment history and perceived need for

treatment, and included questions from the Diagnostic and Statistical

Manual (DSM) of Mental Disorders that allow diagnostic criteria to be

applied. The survey included questions concerning treatment for both

substance abuse and mental health related disorders. Respondents were

also asked about personal and family income sources and amounts,

health care access and coverage, illegal activities and arrest record,

problems resulting from the use of drugs, and needle-sharing.

Questions introduced in previous administrations were retained in the

2003 survey, including questions asked only of respondents aged 12 to

17. These "youth experiences" items covered a variety of topics, such

as neighborhood environment, illegal activities, gang involvement,

drug use by friends, social support, extracurricular activities,

exposure to substance abuse prevention and education programs, and

perceived adult attitudes toward drug use and activities such as

school work. Several measures focused on prevention related themes in

this section. Also retained were questions on mental health and access

to care, perceived risk of using drugs, perceived availability of

drugs, driving and personal behavior, and cigar smoking. Questions on

the tobacco brand used most often were introduced with the 1999 survey

and retained through the 2003 survey. Background information includes

gender, race, age, ethnicity, marital status, educational level, job

status, veteran status, and current household composition. A number of additional questions were added in 2003, including questions on prior marijuana and cigarette use, additional questions on drug treatment, adult mental health services, and social environment.This study has 1 Data Set.

and nonmedical use of prescription drugs, including pain relievers, tranquilizers, stimulants, and sedatives. The survey covered substance abuse treatment

history and perceived need for treatment, and included questions from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) of Mental Disorders that allow diagnostic

criteria to be applied. The survey included questions concerning treatment for both substance abuse and mental health-related disorders. Respondents were

Questions on the tobacco brand used most often were introduced with the 1999 survey. For the 2008 survey, adult mental health questions were added to

measure symptoms of psychological distress in the worst period of distress that a person experienced in the past 30 days and suicidal ideation. In 2008, a

split-sample design also was included to administer separate sets of questions (WHODAS vs. SDS) to assess impairment due to mental health problems.

Beginning with the 2009 NSDUH, however, all of the adults in the sample received only the WHODAS questions. Background information includes gender, race,

age, ethnicity, marital status, educational level, job status, veteran status, and current household composition.This study has 1 Data Set.

In the income section, which was interviewer-administered, a split-sample study had been embedded within the 2006 and 2007 surveys to compare a shorter version of the income questions with a longer set of questions that had been used in previous surveys.
