This questionnaire collects lifetime occupational histories and other lifestyle risk factors by using a life events/icon calendar, and administered the questionnaire to a convenience sample of 162 migrant farmworkers in nine areas of the U.S. The project demonstrated that it is feasible to collect detailed work histories and other risk factor data from farmworkers. It also documented the complexity of work histories encountered among farmworkers, and yielded recommendations for refining a questionnaire that will facilitate future epidemiological research on farmworkers.
