title: Public Attitudes to Campylobacter, 2012

description: Campylobacter is the biggest cause of foodborne disease in the UK, with the majority of human infections being linked to the handling and consumption of chicken, but public understanding of Campylobacter risk is low. Reducing Campylobacter risk is a key target for the Food Standards Agency (FSA).&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Slaughterhouse decontamination treatments (such as lactic acid, hot water or steam) could potentially have a significant effect in reducing the Campylobacter risk. The FSA therefore commissioned GfK NOP and Research Works to conduct a scoping study followed by a consumer survey to investigate public understanding and awareness of Campylobacter, and attitudes towards potential slaughterhouse decontamination treatments for poultry and beef, focussing on lactic acid.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The scoping study consisted of a literature review plus two focus groups with consumers (not held at the UK Data Archive), while the consumer study consisted of over 2,000 interviews with a random probability sample of those who ever buy or cook meat, including boost samples for the devolved countries.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The main objective of the project was to provide a more quantifiable assessment of consumers’ views specifically focussing on UK consumers’:&lt;br&gt; &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;understanding and awareness of Campylobacter&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;attitudes towards potential slaughterhouse decontamination treatments for poultry and beef, focussing on lactic acid&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;attitudes towards potential labelling used to discourage washing of poultry &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt; Further information about this study can be found on the &lt;a class="external" href="http://www.food.gov.uk/science/research/foodborneillness/foodbornediseaseresearch/b14programme/b14projlist/fs241052/" title="Food Standards Agency"&gt;Food Standards Agency&lt;/a&gt; website.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;

title: Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey, 2012
title: Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey, 1998-
title: NILT

description: &lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey&lt;/em&gt; (NILT) series began in 1998, and was the successor to the previous Northern Ireland Social Attitudes series, which was discontinued in 1996.&lt;br&gt;The main aims of the NILT series are:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;to monitor public attitudes towards social policy and political issues in Northern Ireland;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;to provide a time series on attitudes to key social policy areas;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;to facilitate academic social policy analysis;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;to provide a freely available resource on public attitudes for the wider community of users in Northern Ireland.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;NILT originally had a companion series which also began in 1998, the &lt;a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data"&gt;Young Life and Times Survey&lt;/a&gt; (YLT), although the YLT methodology changed in 2003 and it is conducted separately each year. The &lt;a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data"&gt;Kids' Life and Times&lt;/a&gt; (KLT) survey of P7 children (10-11 year olds) is also part of the same suite of surveys as YLT and NILT.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;NILT also forms part of the &lt;a title="International Social Survey Programme" href="http://www.issp.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;International Social Survey Programme&lt;/a&gt; (ISSP), although it does not do so every year. Unfortunately, NILT did not run in 2011 due to funding issues, though YLT ran as normal that year; NILT resumed in 2012 (SN 7408). In addition, several &lt;a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data"&gt;open access teaching datasets&lt;/a&gt; were created by ARK (Access Research Knowledge) from various years of NILT, covering different topics such as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) issues, politics and community relations, attitudes to ageing and ageism, and dementia.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;



&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Further information about the series may be found on the ARK &lt;a title="NILT" href="http://www.ark.ac.uk/nilt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;NILT&lt;/a&gt; webpage.&lt;/p&gt;

description: &lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;Young Life and Times Survey&lt;/em&gt; (YLT) originally began as a companion survey to the &lt;a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040"&gt;Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey&lt;/a&gt; (NILT) series. It surveyed young people aged 12-17 living in the households of adults interviewed for NILT, and YLT ran alongside it from 1998-2000. Following an evaluation in 2001, the YLT series recommenced in 2003 (see SN 4826) using a completely different methodology and independent of the adult NILT. This new YLT survey uses Child Benefit records as a sampling frame.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The aims of the YLT series are to:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;monitor public attitudes towards social policy and political issues in Northern Ireland;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;provide a time series on attitudes to key social policy areas;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;facilitate academic social policy analysis; provide a freely available resource on public attitudes for the wider community of users in Northern Ireland;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;give a voice to young people.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;


&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An open access time-series teaching dataset has been created from the 2003-2012 YLTs - see SN 7548.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data"&gt;Kids’ Life and Times&lt;/a&gt; (KLT) survey of P7 children (10-11 year olds) is also part of the same suite of surveys as YLT and NILT.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Further information about the YLT, including publications, may be found on the Access Research Knowledge (ARK) &lt;a title="Young Life and Times Survey" href="http://www.ark.ac.uk/nilt/ylt/index.html"&gt;YLT&lt;/a&gt; webpages.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Scottish Health Survey, 2012
title: Scottish Health Survey, 1995-
title: SHeS

description: The &lt;i&gt;Scottish Health Survey&lt;/i&gt; (SHeS) series was established in 1995. Commissioned by the Scottish Government Health Directorates, the series provides regular information on aspects of the public's health and factors related to health which cannot be obtained from other sources. The SHeS series was designed to:&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;estimate the prevalence of particular health conditions in Scotland;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;estimate the prevalence of certain risk factors associated with these health conditions and to document the pattern of related health behaviours;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;look at differences between regions and between subgroups of the population in the extent of their having these particular health conditions or risk factors, and to make comparisons with other national statistics for Scotland and England;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;monitor trends in the population's health over time;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;make a major contribution to monitoring progress towards health targets.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Each survey in the series includes a set of core questions and measurements (height and weight and, if applicable, blood pressure, waist circumference, urine and saliva samples), plus modules of questions on specific health conditions that vary from year to year. Each year the core sample has also been augmented by an additional boosted sample for children. Since 2008 NHS Health Boards have also had the opportunity to boost the number of adult interviews carried out in their area. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The Scottish Government &lt;a href="https://www.gov.scot/collections/scottish-health-survey/" title="Scottish Health Survey"&gt;Scottish Health Survey&lt;/a&gt; webpages contain further information about the series, including latest news and publications. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The &lt;i&gt;Scottish Health Survey, 2012&lt;/i&gt; was the seventh survey in the series, designed to provide data at a national level about the population living in private households in Scotland. The NHS Health Scotland funded module of questions on knowledge, motivations and attitudes to health which was included in the 2008-2011 surveys, was discontinued in 2012. Since its inception in 1995, the SHeS interview has included a second stage follow-up visit from a survey nurse to collect biological samples and measures. This was discontinued in 2012. Instead, between 2012 and 2015, specially trained interviewers are taking many of the measurements and samples, previously collected by nurses, from a sub-sample of adult participants.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; For the fourth edition (February 2020), new equivalised income derived variables based on the OECD scoring method (as included in SHeS 2015 onwards) were added to the individual file. The dataset documentation has been updated accordingly.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;

title: Quarterly Labour Force Survey, October - December 2012: Teaching Dataset

description: The &lt;i&gt;Quarterly Labour Force Survey October - December 2012: Teaching Dataset&lt;/i&gt; is based on the &lt;i&gt;Quarterly Labour Force Survey, October - December, 2012&lt;/i&gt; (QLFS OD12) (available from the UK Data Archive under SN 7220) and constitutes real data which are used by the government and are behind many headlines. The teaching dataset contains fewer variables and has been subjected to certain simplifications and additions for the purpose of learning and teaching. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The main differences are: &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;the number of variables has been reduced;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;extra variables (based on variables from the original QLFS OD12 dataset) have been added, including a weight for which mean=1;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;a reduced codebook is provided.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;Further information is available in the study documentation (below) which includes a dataset user guide.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;

title: Vacancy Survey, 2005-2024: Secure Access
title: VS

description: &lt;p&gt;The &lt;i&gt;Vacancy Survey&lt;/i&gt; (VS) is a statutory, monthly survey of businesses in Great Britain, which asks the single question, how many job vacancies did a business have in total on a specified date for which they were actively seeking recruits from outside their organisation. Vacancy statistics provide important information about the demand for labour, and give an early indication of what is happening in the labour market. They are used for monitoring and policy-making purposes by UK government departments and Eurostat.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Questionnaires are sent to a sample of approximately 6,000 businesses on the Inter-Departmental Business Register (IDBR) every month, approached mainly via head offices rather than by local offices. The IDBR is a live register of data on businesses collected by HM Revenue and Customs via VAT and Pay As You Earn (PAYE) records. Businesses return their &lt;i&gt;Vacancy Survey&lt;/i&gt; data to the Office for National Statistics using key presses on a telephone rather than returning a paper questionnaire. A small number of businesses have elected to receive a paper questionnaire which is returned in the pre-paid envelope provided.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The survey covers all sectors of the economy, with the exception of employment agencies and agriculture, forestry and fishing.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Linking to other business studies&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;These data contain IDBR reference numbers. These are anonymous but unique reference numbers assigned to business organisations. Their inclusion allows researchers to combine different business survey sources together. Researchers may consider applying for other business data to assist their research.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Latest edition information&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;For the thirtieth edition (April 2025), two new data files have been added to the study (June to September 2024 and July to October 2024). &lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

title: Employer Skills Survey, 2011
title: Employer Skills Surveys, 2011-
title: UK Commission's Employer Skills Survey, 2011

description: The UK Commission for Employment and Skills' (UKCES) &lt;i&gt;Employer Skills Survey&lt;/i&gt; is a biennial UK-wide individual establishment telephone survey, providing the most detailed picture of training, vacancies, skills gaps, and investment in training. The aims are to provide rigorous and robust intelligence on the UK labour market and the market for skills. The survey has two waves, with a mainstage questionnaire of c.91,000 establishments, and a follow-up survey of investment in training of c.13,000 establishments that have conducted training over the previous 12 months. A Secure Access version of the &lt;I&gt;Employer Skills Survey, 2011-2015&lt;/I&gt; is held by the UK Data Archive under SN 7745.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Two previous studies, the &lt;i&gt;National Employer Skills Survey, 1999-2009: Secure Access&lt;/i&gt; (NESS), covering England only, and the &lt;i&gt;Scottish Employer Skills Survey, 2008-2010: Secure Access&lt;/i&gt;, covering Scotland, are held at the Archive under SNs 6705 and 6857 repectively. Both studies are subject to restrictive Secure Access conditions (see the SN 6705 and 6857 catalogue records for full details).&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The UKCES also conducts the &lt;i&gt;Employer Perspectives Survey&lt;/i&gt; (UKCEPS) series (held at the Archive under SN 33466), which began in 2010. The UKCEPS provides a comprehensive examination of employer perspectives on key aspects of the employment, skills and business support systems in the UK. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Further information may be found on the UKCES &lt;a href="http://www.ukces.org.uk/ourwork/employer-skills-survey" title="Employer Skills Survey"&gt;Employer Skills Survey&lt;/a&gt; webpage.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
 The &lt;i&gt;Employer Skills Survey, 2011&lt;/i&gt; harmonised skills surveys from across the four UK nations, following individual surveys undertaken in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. As predecessor surveys used different inclusion criteria for establishments, the 2011 survey had a broad sample frame to accommodate all UK nation requirements. A single unified sample frame was introduced for 2013, and this version of the 2011 study has been reweighted to be comparable with the 2013 data.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
For the third edition (June 2016) a new version of the Investment in Training file, reweighted to 2015 figures, and accompanying tables, were deposited. &lt;br&gt;

title: Growing Up in Scotland, 2005-: Special Licence Access
title: GUS

description: &lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Growing Up in Scotland&lt;/span&gt; (GUS) study is a large-scale longitudinal social survey which follows the lives of several groups of Scottish children from infancy through childhood and adolescence. It aims to provide important information on children, young people and their families in Scotland. The study forms a central part of the Scottish Government's strategy for the long-term monitoring and evaluation of its policies for children and young people, with a specific focus on the early years. The study seeks both to describe the characteristics, circumstances and experiences of children in their early years in Scotland and, through its longitudinal design, to generate a better understanding of how children's start in life can shape their longer term prospects and development&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Since 2005 fieldwork has been undertaken by the Scottish Centre for Social Research. The survey design for Birth Cohort 1 consisted of recruiting the parents of an initial total of 5,217 children aged 10 months old in 2005 and interviewing them annually until their child reached age six. Further fieldwork was then undertaken at ages 8, 10, 12, 14 and 17-18 with a sample boost added at age 12.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;For sweeps 1 to 9 data were collected via an in-home, face-to-face interview with self-complete sections. Fieldwork for sweeps 10 and 11 were disrupted due to the COVID pandemic. As a result, portions of the data were collected via web and telephone questionnaires whilst others involved face-to-face interviews where they were permitted. The study user guides provide further details.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;Further information about the survey may be found on the &lt;a href="https://growingupinscotland.org.uk/" target="_blank"&gt;Growing Up in Scotland&lt;/a&gt; website.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In May 20205, data and documentation for Cohort 1, Sweeps 1-11 were released as individual studies (SNs 9373-9383 and 9386-9387). Previously they were held under one study (SN 5760) which has been withdrawn from the data catalogue.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Removal of Geographical Variables and Spatial Unit Variable&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt; As of February 2018, at the data owner's request, the variables recording the 15% most deprived data zones, the 8 fold urban-rural classification and the Health Boards have been removed from all sweeps (where included). The variables removed are:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sweep 1: ALaLow15, ALaHBdBc;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sweep 2: ALcLow15, ALcURin1, ALcHBdBc.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;New edition information&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;For the fourth edition (May 2019), an error in the Sweep 3 data has been correct (the SIMD variable ALeSNim2 has been inverted to match the variable included in previous sweeps).&lt;/p&gt;

title: Evaluation of National Reassurance Policing Programme, 2003-2006
title: NRPP

description: This data collection consists of the telephone survey responses from all three waves of the National Reassurance Policing Programme (NRPP) evaluation. The NRPP preceded the national roll-out of neighbourhood policing and sought to improve public confidence in policing. It involved local communities in identifying priority crime and disorder issues in their neighbourhood which they then tackled together with the police and other public services and partners. The NRPP ran trials of reassurance policing in 16 ward level sites, in eight forces in England, beginning in October 2003. The programme was evaluated at the end of the first year of implementation. Overall, the programme was found to have a positive impact on crime and anti-social behaviour, public feelings of safety, and public confidence in the police. In the second year of the programme, four of the original NRPP sites were selected for continued evaluation to test whether the results achieved in the first year could be sustained in the longer term. The main evaluation of the NRPP's first year covered six sites each matched with a control. Outcomes were measured using police statistics and a telephone survey in each site, where the same respondents were interviewed at the outset of the programme and one year later. A sample of 300 respondents was selected randomly with a panel sample of 200 achieved in each site. The baseline survey was conducted between November 2003 and January 2004, and the follow-up survey between November 2004 and January 2005. The sustainability of programme effects in year two was assessed by a third wave of the survey carried out between November 2005 and January 2006. In each site, a panel sample of about 160 was achieved. It consisted of 'original respondents' interviewed in waves 1, 2 and 3 of the survey, and 'new respondents' interviewed in only waves 2 and 3.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Wards included in the trial were: Wards: Failsworth West (Oldham), Tonge (Bolton), St. Mary's (Oldham), Ingol (Preston), Lostock Hall (South Ribble), Brunswick (Blackpool), New Parks (Leicester), Eyre's Monsell (Leicestershire), Town Centre (St. Helen's), West Park (St. Helen's), East Wickham/Falconwood and Welling (Bexley), Northumberland Heath (Bexley), St. Helier (Merton), Upper Edmonton (Enfield), Colville (Kensington and Chelsea), Ash Wharf (Guildford), Horley West (Reigate and Banstead), Walton North (Elmbridge), Burghfield (West Berkshire), Bisham and Cookham (Windsor and Maidenhead), Greenham (West Berkshire), and Aston (Birmingham).&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;
