title: Scottish Social Attitudes Survey, 2016
title: Scottish Social Attitudes Survey, 1999-
title: SSA

description: The &lt;i&gt;Scottish Social Attitudes&lt;/i&gt; (SSA) survey was launched by ScotCen Social Research (formerly the Scottish Centre for Social Research) in 1999, following the advent of devolution. Based on annual rounds of interviews of between 1,200 to 1,500 people drawn using probability sampling (based on a stratified, clustered sample), it aims to facilitate the study of public opinion and inform the development of public policy in Scotland, similar to the &lt;i&gt;British Social Attitudes&lt;/i&gt; (BSA) series (held at the Archive under GN 33168). The SSA survey has been conducted annually each year since 1999, with the exception of 2008. The survey has a modular structure. In any one year it typically contains three to five modules, each containing 40 questions. Funding for its first two years came from the Economic and Social Research Council, while from 2001 onwards different bodies have funded individual modules each year. These bodies have included the Economic and Social Research Council, the Scottish Government and various charitable and grant awarding bodies, such as the Nuffield Foundation and Leverhulme Trust. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Further information on the SSA and links to publications may be found on the ScotCen Social Research &lt;a href="https://natcen.ac.uk/search?series%5B43%5D=43" title="Scottish Social Attitudes" target="_blank"&gt;Scottish Social Attitudes&lt;/a&gt; webpages.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; In 2016, the SSA survey was funded by NHS Health Scotland, Scottish Government and ScotCen Social Research. The 2016 survey contained modules of questions on attitudes to:&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;government - funded by Scottish Government&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;obesity - funded by NHS Health Scotland&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;health inequalities - funded by NHS Health Scotland&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Europe and voting - funded by ScotCen Social Research&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

title: British Social Attitudes Survey, 1983-
title: BSA

description: &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Background&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;The British Social Attitudes (BSA) survey series began in 1983. The series is designed to produce annual measures of attitudinal movements to complement large-scale government surveys that deal largely with facts and behaviour patterns, and the data on party political attitudes produced by opinion polls. One of the BSA's main purposes is to allow the monitoring of patterns of continuity and change, and the examination of the relative rates at which attitudes, in respect of a range of social issues, change over time. Some questions are asked regularly, others less often. Funding for BSA comes from a number of sources (including government departments, the Economic and Social Research Council and other research foundations), but the final responsibility for the coverage and wording of the annual questionnaires rests with NatCen Social Research (formerly Social and Community Planning Research). The BSA has been conducted every year since 1983, except in 1988 and 1992 when core funding was devoted to the British Election Study (BES).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Further information about the series and links to publications may be found on the NatCen Social Research &lt;a title="British Social Attitudes" href="https://natcen.ac.uk/flagship-surveys"&gt;British Social Attitudes&lt;/a&gt; webpage.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="x_MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;Emergency Care Module&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;British Social Attitudes Survey: Emergency Care Module, 2018&lt;/span&gt; was collected as part of a grant-funded project called Drivers of Demand for Emergency and Urgent Care (DEUCE). The project was funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) and the lead institution was the University of Sheffield. The project as a whole aimed to understand people’s help-seeking behaviour from their perspectives rather than health professionals’ perspectives, and from the perspective of an emergency and urgent care system. The BSA module was designed to identify factors affecting population tendency to use emergency services for minor or non-urgent problems, partly through the use of vignettes asking what actions people would take in relation to minor or non-urgent health problems.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="x_MsoBodyText"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

description: &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Measuring and Evaluating Time-use and Electricity-use Relationships&lt;/span&gt; (METER) is a project collecting and depositing data on UK household electricity use, activities and other contextual and demographic information. METER seeks to improve our understanding of household electricity use, it's timing, flexibility and societal importance. By combining high-resolution household electricity readings with simultaneous activity records of household members, METER data provides a platform for new analytical insights. These include among others a more detailed understanding of socio-technical drivers behind:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;high and low electrical consumption&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;high peak time consumption&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;ability to respond to the load shifting interventions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;impact of interventions on individuals&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;trends in electricity user over time and in response to the adoption of new technologies and social practices&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Data was recorded from February 2016 to January 2019.

title: Cyber Security Breaches Surveys, 2018-

description: &lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;Cyber Security Breaches Survey, 2020&lt;/em&gt; was run to understand organisations' approaches and attitudes to cyber security, and to understand their experience of cyber security breaches. Its aim was to support the Government by providing evidence that can inform policies which help to make Britain a safer place to do business online.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The data have been collected annually since 2016 to understand the views of UK organisations on cyber security. Data is collected on topics including online use; attitudes of organisations to cyber security and awareness of Government initiatives; approaches to cyber security (including investment and processes); incidences and impact of a cyber security breach or attack; and how breaches are dealt with by the organisation. This information helps to inform Government policy towards organisations, including how best to target key messages to businesses and charities so that they are cyber secure (and so that the UK is the safest place in the world to do business online). The study is funded by the Cabinet Office as part of the National Cyber Security Programme. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The underlying data are useful for researchers to better understand the response across a range of organisations (rather than averages) and for wider comparability over time. The survey originally only covered businesses but was expanded to include charities from the 2018 survey onwards. From 2020, the survey includes a sample of education institutions (primary and secondary schools, further and higher education). Please note that the UK Data Service only holds data from 2018 onwards.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;

title: Parish Register Aggregate Analysis 1538-1839 Restructured: Baptisms, Burials and Marriages from 404 English Parishes
title: 404 Parish Register Aggregate Analysis 1541-1871

description: &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;This &lt;/span&gt;collection &lt;span&gt;represents the data used to reconstruct the pre-Census population history of England by Wrigley and Schofield, in restructured form. It consists of counts of parish register events from 404 English sample parishes. These data were originally used to estimate national totals of births, deaths and marriages. From these population growth rates were derived and hence the overall English population in each year between 1539 and 1836, but these data are also relevant for local studies of particular parishes or regions, and for studies of mortality variations and crises, which was the purpose for which this restructuring was undertaken. This data collection contains tab-delimited text files of monthly and annual historical counts of baptisms, marriages and burials from parish registers in 404 English parishes, with missing data interpolated, for varying coverage periods in each parish, including a core period of 1662 to 1811.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Volunteer local historians counted events from accessible parish registers with apparently good coverage, from a list distributed by Tony Wrigley at CAMPOP. Counts were recorded on paper pro formas. These were digitised many years ago by CAMPOP into the Population History of England database. Quality checking of count accuracy per volunteer was performed by Roger Schofield and inaccurate contributions discarded. In their current restructured form these files were derived by Gill Newton at CAMPOP from the Population History of England database.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

title: London Stepney Burials with Fees, 1733-1843

description: &lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;Few mortality statistics available for the eighteenth and early nineteenth century differentiate by wealth or social status, although evidence suggests that a social gradient in mortality may have emerged in this period. These individual level burials were collected to analyse variations and changes in mortality in London's populous East End manufacturing district, in a very large parish where extant daybook accounts itemise burial costs, which varied according to services provided. These data consist of parish burial account book burials and parish register burials filling in gaps where there were no extant/accessible burial accounts books for St Dunstan Stepney, London between 1733 and 1843. This produces a continuous series of burials except for a gap beginning July 1808 and ending January 1812. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;Transcriptions include full names, burial fees as a potential indicator of social status, and hamlet/street address. Also in some periods ages and causes of death.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;All extant St Dunstan Stepney parish burial records in manuscript burial account books were transcribed, and manuscript parish register burial records were also transcribed to fill in gaps where there were no extant/accessible burial accounts books, between 1733 and 1843. These records were initially input into Excel spreadsheet tabulations by Jacob Field and Elli Warmington, directed by Gill Newton using the instructions copied in the ReadMe file documentation, and then harmonised into an Access relational database, from which the text files in this data collection derive.&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoPlainText"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;Further information may be found on the &lt;a title="CAMPOP Mortality Research Project Website" href="https://www.campop.geog.cam.ac.uk/research/projects/migrationmortalitymedicalisation/"&gt;CAMPOP Mortality Research Project&lt;/a&gt; website.&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

description: &lt;p&gt;The &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Active Lives Survey&lt;/span&gt; (ALS) commenced in November 2015. It replaces the Active People Survey, which ran from 2005 to 2015. The survey provides the largest sample size ever established for a sport and recreation survey and allows levels of detailed analysis previously unavailable. It identifies how participation varies from place to place, across different sports, and between different groups in the population. The survey also measures levels of activity (active, fairly active and inactive), the proportion of the adult population that volunteer in sports on a weekly basis, club membership, sports spectating and wellbeing measures such as happiness and anxiety, etc. The questionnaire was designed to enable analysis of the findings by a broad range of demographic information, such as gender, social class, ethnicity, household structure, age, and disability.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic developed rapidly during 2020 and 2021. Fieldwork for the Active Lives survey continued throughout the pandemic, which covered periods Nov 2019-20 and Nov 2020-21. The data from Nov 2021-22 onwards covers periods without any coronavirus restrictions. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;More general information about the study can be found on the Sport England &lt;a href="https://www.sportengland.org/research/active-lives-survey/"&gt;Active Lives Survey&lt;/a&gt; webpage and the &lt;a href="https://activelives.sportengland.org/"&gt;Active Lives Online&lt;/a&gt; website, including reports and data tables.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Data Formats&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: 700;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Users should note that the Active Lives data are deposited in SPSS format. The UKDS also provides the data in Stata and tab-delimited formats, but due to the differing nature of the SPSS and Stata software packages and the structure of the Active Lives data, Stata users may experience some issues with labels or variable formats. We therefore recommend that users analyse the data in SPSS where possible.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Latest edition information&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the second edition (February 2025), the data file was resupplied, with an updated County Sports Partnership variable (CSP_2025), an updated inequalities metric variable (equalities_metric_2024_GR4), and new cultural activities variables (library visits, arts participation/visits, frequency) included.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
