How were the new CPS questions on disability developed?
The disability questions used in the CPS were initially developed by the U.S. Census Bureau for use in the American Community Survey (ACS). The ACS questions were modified slightly so that they could be incorporated into the CPS questionnaire. Documentation that describes the development of the questions is available at http://www.census.gov/acs/www/AdvMeth/content_test/P4_Disability.pdf.
