The free workshop, to be held from 12:30-2 p.m. in 214 Parker Hall, South Campus, is designed for UB researchers interested in using surveys in their community-based research.  It will be led by Laurene Tumiel-Berhalter, associate professor and vice chair for research in the Department of Family Medicine, School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.

Topics to be addressed include survey types, question development, how to develop questions with community partners and different sampling methods. Tumiel-Berhalter also will critique various sample surveys, and she invites participants to bring their own surveys as well.
