Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The aim is to conduct a methodological and content-related pilot of a future monitoring of child and adolescent health. The ad-hoc survey does not primarily aim to collect representative health data, but rather to test different approaches relevant for the recruitment, implementation, and quality assurance of primary data collection among children, adolescents, and their families.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame

The survey is conducted for the methodological validation of the instruments, not for determining prevalence rates.
