Description: <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>&nbsp;&nbsp;
The <i>British Crime Survey 2007-2008: Unrestricted Access Teaching Dataset</i> is based on the <i>British Crime Survey, 2007-2008</i> (available from the UK Data Archive under SN 6066) and constitutes real data which are used by the Home Office and are behind many media headlines. The teaching dataset is a subset which has been subjected to certain simplifications and additions for the purpose of learning and teaching. (Note that the main <i>British Crime Survey</i> has now become the <i>Crime Survey for England and Wales</i>, but titles of older studies in the series remain the same.) <br> <br> The main differences are:<ul><li>only respondents who completed Module B (attitudes to the Criminal Justice System) of the BCS, 2007-2008 are included</li><li>the number of variables has been reduced</li><li>weighting has been simplified</li><li>a reduced codebook is provided</li><li>additional continuous variables have been created (using factor analysis of pre-existing variables) in order to facilitate their use in quantitative methods classes</li></ul> Further information is available in the study documentation (below) which includes a dataset user guide and additional notes for teachers. <br> <br> <i>Differences between the unrestricted dataset and the standard access BCS teaching dataset</i>:<br> Note that SN 6561, the <i>British Crime Survey 2007-2008: Teaching Dataset</i> contains a larger subset of BCS 2007-2008 variables than the unrestricted version, and is only available to registered users of the UK Data Service.<br> <br>
