About the European model questionnaire (EMQ)
For surveys conducted among the adult population in households, the EMCDDA Handbook for surveys among the general population reviews and discusses key methodological issues regarding drug population surveys and provides guidelines for reporting of information to the EMCDDA. The Handbook provides a list of core items, called the European model questionnaire (EMQ), for inclusion in questionnaires of national surveys, or for reporting equivalent data from existing surveys. The EMQ can be used to collect data on the period prevalence of a range of drugs, as well as information on age of first use and frequency of use.
