title: Victorian Gay and Bisexual Men's Health and Lifestyle Survey, 1986-1989

description: The Victorian Gay and Bisexual Men's Lifestyle and Health Survey was conducted in response to a recommendation by the National Advisory Committee on AIDS (NACAIDS) which called for further research into the behavioural and social correlates of HIV transmission amongst gay men. Over a three year period, interviews were held with a 300 plus cohort of homosexual and bisexual men in order to: a) establish the effect exposure to AIDS related information has had on the sexual practices and attitudes of homosexual and bisexual men b) identify those psychological or attitudinal factors that are associated with sexual behaviours and c) identify those social, psychological, and attitudinal factors that are correlated with a move from unsafe to safe sexual practices. In addition to the main interview, participants were asked to provide a sample of their blood to test for seropositivity or seronegativity to the HIV virus. Respondents were asked questions related to seven primary research topics - sexual behaviour (e.g. relationship status, sexual activities within and outside permanent relationship, meeting places used for sex, prostitution, blood drawing activities, sexual hygeine, change in sexual behaviours, impact of AIDS on sex behaviours, personal threat of AIDS); communicability (e.g. cities and countries visited, sexual contacts in these cities and countries); drug use (e.g. tobacco, alcohol and illicit drugs); health and nutrition (e.g. diet, exercise, present and past medical conditions, AIDS symptoms); feelings, beliefs and attitudes (e.g. HIV-AIDS related issues, past exposure to AIDS, knowledge of people with AIDS); and information sources on AIDS. Background variables include age, ethnic/racial background, marital status, living situation, educational background, and occupational status and background.

title: The Popular People Project, 1994

description: The Popular People Project was undertaken as part of the Queensland AIDS Council's investigation into preventative education interventions in Australia's gay communities. The objectives of the interventions were to decrease levels of unsafe sex, increase knowledge about the risk of different sexual activities and to increase the perception of peer support for Safe Sex within the gay venue attending community. Elements of the project included: the identification and recruitment of opinion leaders, or 'Popular People'; their participation in a four week training course covering information on Safe Sex and HIV/AIDS, and how best to make conversations with friends and strangers in nightclubs; and the conversations in nightclubs initiated by the Popular People. The main variables evaluated were behaviour, knowledge, perception of peer support, and attitudes with regard to Safe Sex practices of members of the gay venue attending community. These were measured by collecting data on areas such as demographics, behaviour, relationship status, knowledge, perception of peer norms and perception of risk and self efficacy.

title: ANU Poll 2018: Data Governance

description: This poll is the 27th in an ongoing series of polls being undertaken by the Social Research Centre for the ANU. Their purpose is to assess Australians' opinions on important and topical issues, with an emphasis on international comparisons. These polls are typically conducted three times a year, or about every four months. Some questions appear in every poll in order to provide information about changes in opinion over time; the majority of questions appear in one poll only. This research is used to inform public debate and policy about issues affecting Australia.

The aim of this specific survey was to improve our understanding of the Australian public’s attitudes towards data governance in Australia, including how government data should be used; perceptions of current government capability; the level of concern individuals have about specific data breaches and misuse; and trust in particular types of organisations. Demographic and background variables include gender, age, country of birth and citizenship

title: The Australian Housing Conditions Dataset

description: We don't know enough about the condition of Australia’s housing. In the nearly two decades since the last Australian Housing Survey by the Australian Bureau of Statistics there have been significant changes in the housing system. The Australian Housing Conditions Dataset (AHCD) responds to a pressing need for a reliable and up-to-date housing conditions data infrastructure. This initial wave is focused on New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia, however additional work to build upon, adapt and apply the AHCD research protocols to different population groups and locations is encouraged. 

The AHCD provides: an infrastructure of tools, data and protocols for Australian researchers and policy makers; a foundation for evidence-informed research on Australia's housing conditions; and essential evidence required to address the real and chronic housing needs of vulnerable Australians, and maximise social and economic participation in society.

The AHCD project is funded by the Australian Research Council and The University of Adelaide, in partnership with The University of South Australia, The University of Melbourne, RMIT University, Swinburne University of Technology and The University of New South Wales. The project is led by Associate Professor Emma Baker at The University of Adelaide.

title: Promotion of the Health Care Professions to Rural Secondary Students, 1992-1993

description: The long term aim of this project was to increase the percentage of rural students applying for health related tertiary courses in Australia, in the hope that they would return to rural areas to work. The survey was conducted on year 10 students in rural Victorian schools in October 1992. Information was collected regarding students' perspective of careers and intended subject choice. Students were then given a promotional booklet and video and surveyed again between June and August 1993. The second and third surveys were designed to measure the effect of the promotional package on students' career and subject choice. The questionnaire contained most of the same questions, so that comparisons could be made, as well as questions directly related to the video and booklet.

title: Drug use by New South Wales school students, 1983

description: The objectives of New South Wales surveys have been to monitor the nature and extent of alcohol and other drug use, and to provide data from which the need for social policy and educational initiatives could be determined and the effect of such initiatives evaluated. In addition, an attempt was made in 1983 to standardise the measurement procedure so that comparisons could be drawn with other major drug surveys in the United States of America (Johnston et al, 1982) and Canada (Smart et al, 1980 - see Other References below). The drugs examined in this survey were alcohol, tobacco, analgesics, solvents and aerosols, marijuana, sedatives, hallucinogens, narcotics and stimulants. The use of solvents and aerosols was included for the first time in a New South Wales survey because of widespread concern about abuse of these substances. Background variables include sex, age, year at school, main language spoken at home, and household composition.

title: Drug use among primary school students, New South Wales, 1986: File p

description: Comparatively little data has been collected about primary aged students' drug use. This survey has a number of objectives: to monitor the nature and extent of alcohol and other drug use; to provide data from which the need for social policy and educational initiatives could be determined; and to provide background data to facilitate the evaluation of such initiatives. The drugs selected as the focus of the study were tobacco, alcohol, analgesics and inhalants. The first part of the questionnaire investigates children's knowledge of drugs and their knowledge and beliefs about the effect of drugs. Children are then questioned about whether they have ever smoked cigarettes, how often they smoke, what they would do if their friends smoke, whether people close to them smoke, how they would get cigarettes, and beliefs about the effects of smoking. Similar questions are asked on alcohol and inhalants. A section on headache powders and tablets concludes the questionnaire. Background variables include: age, sex, country of birth, country of parent's birth and household structure.
