ZENK ‘SRIMATHI KANNAN BARBARA A. ISRAEL CARMEN STOKES Population-based community surveys are primary dita collection method for epidemiologists, ociologiss, health odu- ‘ators, and others intetested in describing and documenting the diaribusion of health and disease wiehin and across pop Jacions. Such surveys are useful for testing hypotheses or explanatory models ro establish pathways linking specific rk and proective factors to health outcomes (Fowle, 2008; Groves tal, 2009; Nardi, 2002). Questionnaires used for these pu pose: generally include a range of closed-ended items that ‘ses health outcomes of incre in addition roa wide range ‘of variable though co be predictive of health. They ae genet- ally administered using a smpling design constructed callow ‘generalizability of results to a defined population. Further- ‘ore, surveys emphasize consinency of administration, use of standardized tems with exsbished relailiy(comsisency) sand validity (the extent to which they measire what they are intended to measure), and large enough sample size to allow Tor eats of tats signiieance Despite the importance of community surveys in research ‘endeavors there are very fey examples in the literature of how to develop and conduct a population-based survey using 2 community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach. ln this chapter, we draw upon the experience of the Healthy Enviropfienss Partnership (HEP) illustrate proceses for collaborative survey development. Specifically, we describe callaboration among partners fom community-based organi- rations, health sevice provers, academie insttations, and ‘community residents in joincy developing and implementing ‘wo surveys administered to stratified random samples of com unig residents, We highligh for mechanisms use by this pparmerhip to asure community participation and influence Jn the development and implementation of the community survey, with particular attention to processes through which ‘representatives fom diverse groups were actively engage, and ta varying degree of decision-making influence, We describe ‘the coneribuions ofeach ofthese farms of engagement tothe conceptalzation, identifestion of specific areas and items, selection of languagewording, and administration of com- -muniey surveys, as well as che interpretation of findings and decisions about their use in informing commniry change to promote cardiovascular health equity We end with a dscur- ‘ion of challenges, lewons leaned, and implications for CBPR pparmnerships seeking to develop and implement community surveys BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION: HEALTHY ENVIRONMENTS PARTNERSHIP EP is + CBPR purerhip tac has Bon working gtr since 2000, H ‘0 inven the consbons of socal and pia envionment 1 Sodoeeomi, iid. abd cic ieee fa cardonsclr dene (CVD) til and vo devop, plement and alae intanenone 6 promote
