Description: <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>
In 2014, data from the 2012 Health Survey for England (HSE) and the Scottish Health Survey (SHeS) were combined to produce nationally representative estimates of gambling participation and problem gambling for England and Scotland (see SN 7631). This study repeats the process, combining data from the 2015 HSE and SHeS. HSE and SHeS are nationally representative surveys of people living in private households in Great Britain, which use similar sampling methods and the same approach to data collection, making these two surveys directly comparable. The same questions about past year gambling behaviour and screening instruments to identify problem gamblers were used in both studies. To boost sample sizes for analysis, the data have been combined and reweighted to be reflective of the general population living in England and Scotland. All variables which are comparable between the two surveys have also been included in this dataset. <br> <br> Users should note that the study report describes some data used from the Wales Omnibus study, but due to differences in the study methodologies, those data are not included in this dataset. <br> <br>
