| The growing interest in disability statistics has led to improved conceptualizations of disability and related measures. This report focuses on the results of the cognitive and field testing of an extended question set on disability developed by ESCAP and the Washington Group on Disability Statistics. The aim of the testing was to recommend the best set of extended questions for surveys that: (i) clearly identify the correct individuals as intended by the question; (ii) are understood and interpreted easily, and (iii) generate similar trends across countries and regions. The report also discusses the methodology used in each of the phases and describes how best these data can be utilized in national statistics. |
