RTI International is seeking self-motivated and outgoing individuals to work on an important and long-standing government-sponsored research study, the National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) as Part-Time Field Interviewers.


The National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG), conducted by the federal government since 1973, is a national survey of women and men, 15-49 years of age, designed to provide national estimates of factors affecting pregnancy and birth rates, and general reproductive health.

The topics covered in the NSFG are sensitive but extremely important for understanding women's and men's health and well-being in the United States.


The NSFG interview covers sexual activity, contraceptive use, pregnancy history (including pregnancy loss), infertility, relationship experience, (including marriages and cohabitation), use of medical services (including family planning, infertility services, and preventative health care), and experience with adoption and foster care.

For more information on the NSFG research project and requirements, please see:

.

Field Interviewers will make face-to-face visits to selected households to screen for eligible respondents and conduct in-person NSFG interviews.
