National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 2008
The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) series (formerly titled National Household Survey on Drug Abuse) primarily measures the prevalence and correlates of drug use in the United States. The surveys are designed to provide quarterly, as well as annual, estimates. Information is provided on the use of illicit drugs, alcohol, and tobacco among members of United States households aged 12 and older.
The 2008 NSDUH data and documentation files are now available for download and online analysis from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Data Archive (SAMHDA). SAMHDA provides ready access to the most current and comprehensive national data on substance abuse and mental health. All SAMHDA data and services are free of charge and may be downloaded from the SAMHDA Web site. Most studies are available for online analysis. Annual reports for the NSDUH series are provided by SAMHSA's Office of Applied Studies.
With tools such as Quick Tables, users can easily produce custom analytic tables with the NSDUH data. Just choose from preselected variables on drop-down menus by pointing and clicking. Then, copy and paste the results into documents or slides.
