Resource Abstract:
- description: <p>The 2011 BRFSS data reflects a change in weighting methodology (raking) and the addition of cell phone
only respondents. Shifts in observed prevalence from 2010 to 2011 for BRFSS measures will likely reflect the new methods of
measuring risk factors, rather than true trends in risk-factor prevalence. A break in trend lines after 2010 is used to reflect
this change in methodolgy. Percentages are weighted to population characteristics. Data are not available if it did not meet
BRFSS stability requirements. For more information on these requirements, as well as risk factors and calculated variables,
see the Technical Documents and Survey Data for a specific year - <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/annual_data/annual_data.htm">http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/annual_data/annual_data.htm</a>.
