PY - 2018 DA - 2018/07/23 TI - Prevalence of food allergy in Vietnam: comparison of web-based with traditional paper-based survey JO - World Allergy Organization Journal SP - 16 VL - 11 IS - 1 AB - Web-based surveys (WBS) are increasingly applied in epidemiological studies as an appealing alternative to traditional survey methods. Rapid data collection, reduced expenditure and ease of access to large populations are some of the clear advantages of online surveys. However, WBS are still subject to limitations in terms of sample size, response rate and other additional biases compared to traditional survey methods. In the present study, we seek to validate data on food allergy (FA) in two independent sample populations collected from a WBS, and compare it to a paper-based survey (PBS).
