Methods for collecting time/activity pattern information related to exposure to combustion products

Focus groups, surveys and questionnaires, diaries and observations can be used to gather information about people's exposure to a wide range of combustion products. Information about locations and durations of exposure, and sources of exposure can be obtained with these instruments. The types of instruments used must be fine tuned to meet the design characteristics of the community in which the study will be conducted. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
