title: Index of Electoral Malpractice, 1995-2006

description: The aim of the &lt;i&gt;Index of Electoral Malpractice, 1995-2006&lt;/i&gt; was to investigate electoral malpractice in new and semi-democracies. It studied the mechanics of electoral malpractice and the frequency of different forms of abuse with reference to the strategic constraints under which political actors operate in different contexts. It also explored the causes and consequences of electoral malpractice.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The project employed a variety of data, including existing datasets and a new dataset created specifically for this research: the &lt;i&gt;Index of Electoral Malpractice, 1995-2006&lt;/i&gt;, constructed on the basis of 136 election observation reports produced between 1995 and 2006 by international election observation missions in 57 states in 3 regions of the world, Latin America, Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union and Sub-Saharan Africa.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Each report was coded independently by three coders according to a schema that distinguishes between the targets of various manipulative strategies: the legislative framework, campaign practices, and various aspects of the electoral administrative process. Coders were asked to code a total of 15 aspects of the electoral process, including an overall assessment of the quality of the election, as reflected in the observation mission’s evaluation.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Further information can be found on the &lt;a href="http://www.essex.ac.uk/government/electoralmalpractice/" title="Electoral Malpractice and Electoral Manipulation in New and Semi-Democracies"&gt;Electoral Malpractice and Electoral Manipulation in New and Semi-Democracies&lt;/a&gt; web page.&lt;br&gt;

title: Audit of Political Engagement 5, 2007
title: Audit of Political Engagement, 2003-
title: Hansard Society Audit of Political Engagement 5, 2007

description: The &lt;i&gt;Audit of Political Engagement&lt;/i&gt; is a time-series study providing an annual benchmark to measure political engagement in Great Britain, gauging public opinion about politics and the political system, and more broadly the general health of our democracy. Each Audit report presents the findings from a public opinion survey, providing detailed commentary on a range of measures that have been chosen as key measures of political engagement. Repeating questions in successive years enables us to chronicle the public’s responses year on year and track the direction and magnitude of change since the Audit was first published in 2004, building trend data on public attitudes to key aspects of our democracy. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The Audit looks at core inter-locking areas that are known as vital facets, or 'building blocks', of political engagement. Given the multi-dimensional nature of political engagement, the indicators chosen are not exhaustive, but in capturing aspects of public behaviour, knowledge, opinions, attitudes and values towards politics they help us understand the drivers of political engagement and the relationships between them. Across the Audit series several 'core' indicator questions have been asked each year, supplemented by a range of thematic and topical questions, some of which are re-visited on two- or three-year cycles.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Further information about the survey series is available from the Hansard Society &lt;a href="https://www.hansardsociety.org.uk/research/audit-of-political-engagement" title="Audit of Political Engagement"&gt;Audit of Political Engagement&lt;/a&gt; webpages.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Audit of Political Engagement 5, 2007&lt;/i&gt; provides an update of the six core indicators. Previous surveys were based on UK data, whereas figures from 2007 are based on Great Britain and do not include Northern Ireland.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
For the second edition (November 2009), a new version of the data file has been deposited which includes an urban-rural indicator variable.&lt;br&gt;

title: Acute Trusts: Adult Inpatients Survey, 2007
title: National Health Service Patient Survey Programme, 2003-
title: NHS Patient Survey Programme

description: &lt;p&gt;The National Patient Survey Programme is one of the largest patient survey programmes in the world. It provides an opportunity to monitor experiences of health and provides data to assist with registration of trusts and monitoring on-going compliance. Understanding what people think about the care and treatment they receive is crucial to improving the quality of care being delivered by healthcare organisations. One way of doing this is by asking people who have recently used the health service to tell the Care Quality Commission (CQC) about their experiences.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;The CQC will use the results from the surveys in the regulation, monitoring and inspection of NHS acute trusts (or, for community mental health service user surveys, providers of mental health services) in England. Data are used in CQC Insight, an intelligence tool which identifies potential changes in quality of care and then supports deciding on the right regulatory response. Survey data will also be used to support CQC inspections.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Each survey has a different focus. These include patients' experiences in outpatient and accident and emergency departments in Acute Trusts, and the experiences of people using mental health services in the community.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;i&gt;History of the programme&lt;br&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The National Patient Survey Programme began in 2002, and was then conducted by the Commission for Health Improvement (CHI), along with the Commission for Healthcare Audit and Inspection (CHAI). Administration of the programme was taken over by the Healthcare Commission in time for the 2004 series. On 1 April 2009, the CQC was formed, which replaced the Healthcare Commission.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Further information about the National Patient Survey Programme may be found on the CQC &lt;a href="http://www.cqc.org.uk/content/surveys" title="Patient Survey Programme" ,="" target="_blank"&gt;Patient Survey Programme&lt;/a&gt; web pages.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/p&gt; The &lt;i&gt;Adult Inpatients Survey, 2007&lt;/i&gt; was designed to provide actionable feedback to each participating NHS trust on patients' views of the care they had received as inpatients, as well as providing the Healthcare Commission with patient-focused indicators to feed into the 2007-2008 annual performance ratings check for acute and specialist NHS trusts.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
For the second edition (October 2008), an updated data file has been added which includes two new variables (MainSpec and DisSpec), covering main medical speciality and medical speciality allocated at discharge.&lt;br&gt;

title: Smoking, Drinking and Drug Use among Young People, 2007
title: Smoking, Drinking and Drug Use among Young People, 1988-
title: Smoking among Secondary Schoolchildren; Smoking, Drinking and Drug Use among Young Teenagers

description: &lt;p&gt;The &lt;i&gt;Smoking, Drinking and Drug Use among Young People&lt;/i&gt; surveys began in 1982, under the name Smoking among Secondary Schoolchildren. The series initially aimed to provide national estimates of the proportion of secondary schoolchildren aged 11-15 who smoked, and to describe their smoking behaviour. Similar surveys were carried out every two years until 1998 to monitor trends in the prevalence of cigarette smoking. The survey then moved to an annual cycle, and questions on alcohol consumption and drug use were included. The name of the series changed to &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Smoking, Drinking and Drug Use among Young Teenagers&lt;/span&gt; to reflect this widened focus. In 2000, the series title changed, to &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Smoking, Drinking and Drug Use among Young People. &lt;/span&gt;NHS Digital (formerly the Information Centre for Health and Social Care) took over from the Department of Health as sponsors and publishers of the survey series from 2005. From 2014 onwards, the series changed to a biennial one, with no survey taking place in 2015, 2017 or 2019.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In some years, the surveys have been carried out in Scotland and Wales as well as England, to provide separate national estimates for these countries. In 2002, following a review of Scotland's future information needs in relation to drug misuse among schoolchildren, a separate Scottish series, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Scottish Schools Adolescent Lifestyle and Substance Use Survey&lt;/span&gt; (SALSUS) was established by the Scottish Executive.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

title: Sustainable Uplands: Management for Multiple Benefits, 2004-2005
title: Rural Economy and Land Use Programme Sustainable Uplands Project: Social Network Analysis

description: &lt;p&gt;This is a mixed methods study. The study is part of the Rural Economy and Land Use (RELU) programme.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The project developed a learning process designed to help people better anticipate, monitor and respond to rural change in UK uplands. It identified data sources, gaps and methods that could be used to further develop, test and streamline the process in the next phase of the research. Working in the Peak District National Park, the research focussed on managed burning, and contributed to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) consultation on their review of the Heather and Grass Burning Code.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a broad cross-section of upland management stakeholders from the Peak District National Park. The research found deep-seated conflict over burning and little regular contact between many groups. However, most of the individuals that were interviewed from each group recognised considerable overlap between their views on upland management and the views of those they knew from opposing groups.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The study pioneered the use of Social Network Analysis in environmental management, to ensure all relevant groups were involved in the research. The analysis identified a few key individuals who were both well known and with whom many people felt they shared views. By getting these people involved in negotiations about the way land managers can respond to future change, it may be possible to reach agreements more easily and gain wider acceptance.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Further information for this study may be found through the &lt;a href="https://www.researchcatalogue.esrc.ac.uk/grants/RES-224-25-0088/read" target="_blank"&gt;ESRC Research Catalogue webpage: Sustainable Upland Management for Multiple Benefits.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://relu.data-archive.ac.uk/explore-data/search-browse/project/?ID=RES-224-25-0088"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

title: Money Management in Lesbian and Gay Couples, 2004-2006

description: Same-sex relationships have become increasingly accepted within wider society alongside more traditional forms of partnership. Although there has been a considerable amount of research into understanding domestic arrangements within heterosexual households, this is not the case for same-sex households. In particular, little or no research has been carried out on money management in same-sex households. The study intended to address this gap and to develop a more complete understanding of domestic economies in today’s society. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The main aims of &lt;i&gt;Money Management in Lesbian and Gay Couples, 2004-2006&lt;/i&gt; were to investigate:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;how same-sex couples manage their finances&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;potential links between money management practices and relationship beliefs&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;how money management in same-sex couples compares with heterosexual couples&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;views on civil partnership legislation&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;The study comprised qualitative in-depth interviews and a quantitative survey which looked at financial practices, relationships and civil partnership beliefs in lesbians and gay men. The qualitative interviews are not available for secondary analysis due to confidentially reasons. Further details of the analysis of these are available in the user guide.

title: Public Engagement with Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), 2006-2007

description: This mixed method study investigated public engagement with methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The growing social scientific literature on public engagement with emerging infectious diseases provided the context. Such engagement can range from anxious, alarmist responses, to more distancing reactions in which ‘risk groups’ are invoked and the sense of invulnerability and equanimity of those not belonging to such groups maintained. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Sixty adults were purposively sampled from Greater London to encompass relevant age, socio-economic and newspaper readership demographics. The sampling frame also ensured that half of the sample had had at least one overnight stay in a hospital within the 12 months prior to the interview. Data were collected by 60 semi-structured interviews, followed by a written self-completed questionnaire. Initially participants were presented with a grid containing four empty boxes. They were verbally prompted to write in each box any word, emotion or image that came to mind when they heard the term ‘MRSA’. A scanned version of the free association grid completed by every respondent is available to accompany every interview. The interviews are also available in Atlas-ti format, in addition to an RTF file of each transcript.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The thematic analysis revealed a shared pattern of response, with few sub-group differences. The key pattern was that MRSA resulted from the dirty state of National Health Service (NHS) hospitals. The role of the hospital had been transgressed: hospitals should cure but, instead, left people (primarily babies, the elderly and ‘the sick’) with a life-threatening condition. Blame for this situation pervaded the data. It was levelled primarily at cleaners, though mismanagement underpinned bad cleaning. Blame was also levelled at those who introduced ‘foreign’ cleaners – and for that matter nurses and doctors – into NHS hospitals. ‘Foreigners’ were seen to play a role in the demise of the NHS, which was seen as a microcosm of Britain. Calls to bring back matron, particularly among the older participants, represented a hope of returning the NHS to an imagined golden age of orderliness, authority and cleanliness. Overall, the invocation of ‘vulnerable’ risk groups left this sample of the general public with a sense of equanimity regarding their own risk, but with a strong sense of blame and worry concerning the general state of the country.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Further information about the study can be found on the &lt;a href="http://www.esrcsocietytoday.ac.uk/ESRCInfoCentre/ViewAwardPage.aspx?awardnumber=RES-000-22-1694" title ="ESRC award page"&gt;ESRC award page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br&gt;

title: Poor Jews' Temporary Shelter Database, 1896-1914

description: The database was developed in the first instance as a resource for undergraduate teaching and subsequently for historical and genealogical research. The teaching aspect was in the context of the pioneering Computing for Historians programme developed at Leicester between 1988 and 2002. This required all history students to undertake database work as a core element in their degree, involving an assigned quota of data input into one of a range of departmental databases and culminating in a finals project on their designated database. From a research point of view, work on the Shelter database received an important stimulus with the discovery that a substantial proportion of the migrants recorded in the database were bound for South Africa. This discovery attracted funding from the Kaplan Centre at the University of Cape Town, to help speed up the input by employing three postgraduates, and it led to the mounting of a partial online version of the database in Cape Town as part of a project there to research the development of South Africa’s early Jewish community at the beginning of the twentieth century. The database has subsequently been drawn on by two postgraduate theses and a number of publications.&lt;br&gt;

title: Experiences and Expectations of Disabled People, 2007

description: In 2006, the Office for Disability Issues commissioned a research project to explore the lives of disabled people in Great Britain today. The study aimed to develop a generalised picture to better understand disabled people’s experiences and opinions. It also aimed to provide information to aid the monitoring of progress towards the Government’s vision of achieving substantive equality for disabled people by 2025. The research project interviewed 1,860 disabled people in Britain during July and August 2007 and was unusual because it actively involved disabled people at all stages of the study. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The scope of the study, including the issues to be included in the research, was guided by disabled people. The study covered a wide range of issues including home life, social activities, transport, education, employment and finances. The study also looked at experiences of discrimination.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;

title: Health Education Population Survey, 2007
title: Health Education Population Survey, 1996 -
title: HEPS

description: NHS Health Scotland is the national agency for health education in Scotland, providing leadership for health promotion in Scotland. Its remit includes:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;educational action to strengthen individuals' knowledge, skills and capabilities&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;building the capacities of systems which shape the social, environmental and economic conditions which create and sustain health&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;NHS Health Scotland is also committed to measuring the effectiveness of its activities and commissions research to provide reliable evaluation evidence and to inform the development of programmes. As part of this research programme, BMRB Social Research were commissioned to conduct the first &lt;i&gt;Health Education Population Survey&lt;/i&gt; (HEPS) every March and September from March 1996 until March 1999 (seven waves in total). The resulting data, covering all three years, are held at the UK Data Archive as a single study under SN 4949. The second and following HEPS surveys were then conducted every March and September until September 2005 (ten waves in total), with two waves comprising each yearly dataset (see SNs 4950-4952, 5202 and 5470). Fieldwork was then commissioned for a further four waves, with waves eleven and twelve (conducted January-April and August-December 2006) comprising the 2006 dataset, held under SN 5713. These were followed by waves thirteen and fourteen (conducted January-April and August-November 2007) and are held under SN 6023.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The main objectives of HEPS are as follows:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;to monitor trends in health-related attitudes, knowledge, beliefs and behaviours, and to assess the impacts of specific activities&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;contribute to planning and development of health promotion initiatives through the inclusion of more detailed modules on topical issues&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;In the longer term, HEPS aims to develop a strategic view of how and where health promotion activity may be most effective. This can be achieved in the following ways:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;identifying levels of knowledge regarding the main causes of ill-health&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;identifying salient attitudes with respect to health and means of improving health&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;identifying levels of motivation with respect to behaviour change to improve health&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;developing an understanding of how such indicators may be expected to vary between different population groups&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;developing an understanding of individual patterns of health-related attitudes and behaviour and their relationship to the broader socio-cultural environment&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;developing an understanding of specific areas of interest&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;

title: National Survey of NHS Patients: General Practice, 2002
title: National Surveys of NHS Patients, 1998-

description: The National Surveys of NHS Patients programme comprises a series of surveys designed to contribute to monitoring the performance of the NHS as seen from the patient's perspective. The Government committed itself to this programme in 1997, in &lt;i&gt;The New NHS - modern dependable&lt;/i&gt; White Paper, which proposed the introduction of annual surveys of patients and users to allow systematic comparisons of experiences over time and between different parts of the country. The first survey, covering general practice patients, was carried out in 1998. The second survey, covering Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) patients, took place in 1999. The third survey, covering Cancer patients, took place in 2000. The fourth survey, covering General Practice, took place in 2002. Further information about the series may be found on the Department of Health &lt;a href="http://www.dh.gov.uk/en/Publicationsandstatistics/PublishedSurvey/NationalsurveyofNHSpatients/index.htm" title ="National Surveys of NHS Patients"&gt;National Surveys of NHS Patients&lt;/a&gt; web page.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
 The &lt;i&gt;National Survey of NHS Patients: General Practice, 2002&lt;/i&gt; aims to assess the quality of NHS care from the patients’ perspective. The findings are intended to inform practice locally and nationally by highlighting areas in need of improvement.&lt;br&gt;
