Contact Christine Kukich, at ckukich@acha.org, for further information regarding access to the NCHA Reference Group data.
Published Literature
Hundreds of articles published from secondary analysis of ACHA-NCHA data are available in the peer-reviewed literature. New articles are published every day. While most articles are indexed in PubMed, it’s also recommended that one refer to ERIC (Education Resources Information Center) to identify those published in the education literature, in addition to ProQuest to look for theses and dissertations published from ACHA-NCHA data.
Please also consider searching with several variations on the survey name (e.g. ACHA-NCHA, NCHA, National College Health Assessment, American College Health Association) to increase the likelihood of identifying as many publications as possible.
