Worldwide forced displacement is increasing the demand in global health programming for health-related data collection methods that cut across broad ethnic and cultural differences. An interdisciplinary team leveraged consumer-based tablet technology to develop a novel survey application addressing barriers in literacy, numeracy, and respondent privacy in resettled refugee communities. The computer assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) innovation was piloted among 65 resettled refugees in Middle Tennessee, in the context of a survey of psychosocial wellbeing. Results showed the tablet-based CAPI application was an affordable, versatile survey method that increased accessibility without sacrificing respondent privacy.
