Convenors:

Abstract Details

A core principle of Understanding Society - The UK Household Longitudinal Study - is to ensure it is based on the best longitudinal survey methods. To facilitate this, an Innovation Panel was established that allows internal and external researchers to conduct experiments with survey methodologies. In this workshop we will present the latest findings from such research focusing on three areas:

* introducing mixed mode data collection in a panel survey
* improving measurement in a panel context
* targeting the design of panel surveys.

The workshop will also discuss the key methodological challenges for the future of the Study, and plans to address them.
