This report describes the sample design to the 2012 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). A coordinated sample design was developed for the 2005 through 2009 NSDUHs. The 2010-2011 and 2012-2013 samples are extensions of the 5-year sample. This report describes the general sample allocation procedures for the main NSDUH study, the NSDUH\'s Mental Health Surveillance Study, and the Questionnaire Field Test.

This report is a continuation of the 2021National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) Sample Design Report. It further documents the 2021 NSDUH sample experiences, by comparing expected outcomes with what actually occurred, and documenting unexpected issues that came up during the year. The report also summarizes the information about the sample design that is more thoroughly detailed in the previous report.Chapter 1 introduces the report and summarizes the impact of the coronavirus 2019 pandemic on the sample design and data collection. Chapter 2 revisits the 2021 sample design. Chapters 3, 4, and 5 document the sample experiences at the third, fourth, and fifth stages of sample selection, respectively. Finally, Chapter 6 compares the observed and expected precisions, and also examines trends in average design effects over time.The document is available as a PDF.

This report describes the sample design to the 2011 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH).

This report details the 2019 sample design for the NSDUH and covers the design overview, target population, and stages of sample selection. The design overview describes how the sample design remains consistent with NSDUH’s designs since 1991 and has extended coverage of the sample since then to include additional resident populations. The 2019 target population for this report comprises a civilian, noninstitutionalized population aged 12 years or older residing within the 50 states and the District of Columbia. There are three stages of sample selection that are explained in terms of how to select and aggregate the appropriate census tracts and segments based on state sampling regions (SSRs) for each state.
