DEMOGRAPHICS MEASURE
INTRODUCTION
The collection of demographics information enables one to determine if certain groups vary in their assessment of services. It also provides a means of characterizing and describing the type of clients receiving a particular service.
 
TEST INSTRUMENT
The demographic instrument includes the standard background questions about a person, for example the person's gender, age, educational level, ethnic group, and income range. In addition, it inquires about the person's living arrangement, which can be very important information to obtain if your client population is limited in their mobility and may have to rely on others for assistance.
