In accordance with Executive Order 13078, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, in cooperation with the Employment Rate Measurement
Methodology interagency workgroup, identified the goal of placing a
small set of questions within the Current Population Survey (CPS)
to measure disability. A set of potential questions was drawn from
existing surveys, cognitively tested, and placed in the National
Comorbidity Survey (NCS) for testing. Based on an analysis of the
NCS data, a set of seven questions was identified. These seven
questions were then cognitively tested to ensure that they would
work within the CPS context. This question set was placed in the
February 2006 CPS for field testing. The two primary goals of the
test were to compare the CPS disability rate to that obtained from
the NCS, and to evaluate the effect on CPS response rates in the
following month. Analysis of the test data revealed a lower overall
disability rate as measured in the CPS than in the NCS, with lower
positive response rates for each question. The data did not
indicate that there was an adverse effect on the response rates for
households that had received the disability questions.
