Description:	<P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P><p><strong>Background</strong><br> The <em>British Social Attitudes</em> (BSA) survey series began in 1983. The series is designed to produce annual measures of attitudinal movements which will complement large-scale government surveys such as the <em>General Lifestyle Survey</em> and the <em>Labour Force Survey</em>, which deal largely with facts and behaviour patterns, as well as the data on party political attitudes produced by the 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 a number of sources (including government departments, the Economic and Social Research Council and other research foundations), but 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 <em>British Election Study</em> (BES).<br> <br> Further information about the series and links to publications may be found on the NatCen Social Research <a title="British Social Attitudes" href="http://www.bsa.natcen.ac.uk/">British Social Attitudes</a> website. </p><p>In addition, a compilation of BSA data and documentation, including interactive descriptive statistics, is available via the <a title="BritSoCat" href="http://www.britsocat.com/">BritSoCat</a> web site, maintained by the Centre for Comparative European Survey Data.<br> <br> <strong>International Social Survey Programme (ISSP)</strong><br> The ISSP is run by a group of research organisations in different countries (currently 48 countries), each of which undertakes to field annually an agreed module of questions on a chosen topic area. Since 1985, an ISSP module has been included in one or more of the BSA self-completion questionnaires. Each module is chosen for repetition at intervals to allow comparisons both between countries and over time. See the ISSP catalogue record for further details, held under SN 7259.</p> <b>Latest Edition Information</b><br/> For the third edition (April 2017) data from the Public Health England modules on Alcohol, Dementia, Mental Health and Obesity from the self-completion questionnaires have been added to the dataset, following the publication of reports based on them. In addition, three variables have been replaced with new versions: BNationU (previously unpopulated); TVNews and WebNews (for both, a minor amendment to one value label only).<br/><br/> <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR>The BSA questionnaire normally comprises two parts, one administered face-to-face and one for self-completion (since 1985, one of the self-completion option questionnaires includes the ISSP module). Each year the interview questionnaire contains a number of 'core' questions, which are repeated in most years. In addition, a wide range of background and classificatory questions is included. The remainder of the questionnaire is devoted to a series of questions (modules) on a range of social, economic, political and moral issues - some asked regularly, others less often. Cross-indexes of those questions asked more than once appear in the reports. The BSA 2015 questionnaires included modules covering: attitudes to public spending, social welfare, politics, health, social class, the European Union, transport, food, alcohol, mental wellbeing, obesity, dementia and retirement and pensions. <br> <br> In 2015, the ISSP module was Work Orientations.
