Description: | <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P><p>The <em>1970 British Cohort Study</em> (BCS70) began in 1970 when data were collected about the births and families of babies born in the United Kingdom in one particular week in 1970. Since then, there have been nine further full data collection exercises in order to monitor the cohort members' health, education, social and economic circumstances. These took place when respondents were aged 5 in 1975, aged 10 in 1980, aged 16 in 1986, aged 26 in 1996, aged 30 in 1999-2000 (SN 5558), aged 34 in 2004-2005, aged 42 in 2012 and aged 46 in 2016-18. A range of sub-sample and supplementary surveys have also been conducted, and a separate dataset covering response to BCS70 over all waves is available under SN 5641, <em>1970 British Cohort Study Response Dataset, 1970-2012.</em></p> <p>Further information about the BCS70 and may be found on the <a title="Centre for Longitudinal Studies" href="http://www.cls.ioe.ac.uk/">Centre for Longitudinal Studies</a> website. The content of BCS70 studies, including questions, topics and variables can be explored via the <a href="https://discovery.closer.ac.uk/item/uk.cls.bcs70/75fe4705-0c94-4f75-b1e6-ad9c61ffde26">CLOSER Discovery</a> website. <br> <br> <em>How to access genetic and/or bio-medical sample data from a range of longitudinal surveys:</em><br> A useful overview of the governance routes for applying for genetic and bio-medical sample data, which are not available through the UK Data Service, can be found at <a title="Governance of data and sample access" href="http://www.metadac.ac.uk/data-access-through-metadac/">Governance of data and sample access</a> on the METADAC (Managing Ethico-social, Technical and Administrative issues in Data Access) website.</p> The <span style="font-style: italic;">1970 British Cohort Study: Age 29, Sweep 6, 1999-2000 </span>was conducted when respondents were aged 29-30. Fieldwork was conducted alongside the sixth wave of the <i>National Child Development Study</i> (NCDS6).<br> <br> SN 5558 supersedes the former combined NCDS6/BCS70 1999-2000 dataset. The Centre for Longitudinal Studies updated several BCS70 studies in late 2006, and as part of this work separated the composite NCDS6/BCS70 dataset. Improvements made include further data cleaning and the addition of new documentation. Users who have previously obtained SN 4396 should no longer use it, and should completely replace it with this one. The NCDS6 component is now held separately under SN 5578 <i>National Child Development Study: Sweep 6, 1999-2000</i>.<br> <br> For the fourth edition (June 2016) a small number of primary identifiers (BCSID) have been changed to realign them to previous sweeps of data. See the documentation for full details of the work done.<br> <br> <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> Topics covered in the BCS70 cohort member interview for 1999-2000 covered:<ul><li>household: household memberships and interrelationships; ethnicity; languages spoken in the home</li><li>housing: current address; intentions to move; homelessness; housing history</li><li>relationships: marital status; relationship history</li><li>children: pregnancy history; lone parenthood; infertility; adopted children; partner's children from a previous relationship; children over 16; family activities; demands of parenting</li><li>family, social relationships and support: contact with family; emotional support</li><li>family income, including sources of income other than work; financial situation</li><li>employment: economic activity; current job; other paid work; unemployment; labour market histories; partner's job</li><li>lifelong learning: qualifications; current course for qualification; assessment of current/most recent course; other courses and training; any lack of formal learning; contact with information technology; literacy and numeracy</li><li>health: general health; long-term health conditions; respiratory problems; mental health; sight and hearing; other conditions; accidents/injuries; hospital admissions; smoking; drinking; diet; exercise; height and weight</li><li>citizenship and values: involvement with organisations; voting behaviour and intentions; political alignment; trade union membership; religion; newspaper readership; car ownership; values; political activity</li></li><li>self-completion: opinions on key areas of life; quality of relationship with husband, wife or partner; work-related skills; psychological morbidity; experience of school exclusion and truancy; contact with the police and crime; use of illegal drugs</li></ul>Standard Measures:<br> The attitude questions included in the instrumentation employ Likert-like scales.<br> Other standard measures used include:<ul><li><i>Malaise Inventory</i>: a measure of for assessing psychiatric morbidity, developed by Rutter and others at the Institute of Psychiatry from the <i>Cornell Medical Index</i>; Rutter, M., Tizard, J. and Whitemore K.
