abstract = {Migrants are often poorly represented in epidemiological
studies which limits the generalizability of the results of
population-based studies. This study aimed to assess whether
a community-based sampling (CBS) of persons of Turkish
origin leads to differences in the participants'
characteristics compared to a register-based sampling (RBS).
The two sampling strategies were used to recruit
participants in three cities in Germany (CBS: n = 641;
RBS: n = 578). We compared sociodemographic, migration-
and health-related characteristics. Census data were used as
an external reference. Lower German language skills and a
lower acculturation status were more prevalent in the CBS
than in the RBS. While age and sex adjusted obesity
prevalence differed [CBS: 37.8 (33.6-42.4); RBS 30.0
(26.3-34.0); census data 19.1 (18.2-20.1)], most other
health indicators were similar across the samples. In
conclusion, the CBS approach led to a greater representation
of persons of Turkish origin with lower language skills and
lower acculturation status. Nevertheless, both recruitment
strategies provided similar estimates of health status
indicators.},
