The household data file is no longer released for analysis. In addition, users may see other changes; for example only grouped age is now available instead of single year of age. NHS Digital have issued the following statement on changes to the HSE from 2015:<br> <br> "NHS Digital has recently reviewed how we manage access to survey datasets. In doing this we have sought to strike a balance between protecting the privacy of individuals and enabling maximum use of these valuable, publicly funded data collections. We have thoroughly reviewed our disclosure control measures, including taking advice from experts at the Office of National Statistics. The result is that additional disclosure control measures have been applied to the 2015 survey [onwards] to enable a suitable dataset to be made available through the UK Data Service via end user licence. This involved providing less detail on some aspects, such as geographical classifications, ethnicity and household relationships. To provide greater protection of the answers of children and adults within households it is not possible to identify people within the same household on this dataset, however parent/guardian derived variables appended to their children (if they have any) have been added to enable some intra‐household analysis.”</p> <p><br> It is hoped that a second dataset with more detail including family and household relationships will be made available via Special Licence. In the meantime, researchers who want to do analysis of health and behaviours within families or households, and the derived intra-household variables do not meet your needs, are advised to register their interest for a more detailed dataset with NatCen Social Research and provide information about their proposed research and which data they want.</p>en
dc.descriptionThe HSE 2008 provides data at both national and regional level about the population living in private households in England. The sample comprised two components: the core (general population) sample and a boost sample of children. The core sample was designed to be representative of the population living in private households in England. The reports for the 2008 survey may be found on the HSCIC <a href="http://www.hscic.gov.uk/pubs/hse08physicalactivity" title="HSE 2008 publications">HSE 2008 publications</a> webpage.<br> <br> For the HSE core sample, all adults aged 16 years or older at each household were selected for the interview (maximum ten adults). However, a maximum of two children aged 0-15 were interviewed per household. For households with three or more children, interviewers selected two children at random. At boost addresses interviewers screened for households containing at least one child aged 2-15 years. For households which included eligible children, up to two were selected by the interviewer for inclusion in the survey. Interviewing was conducted throughout the year to take account of seasonal differences.<br> <br> <b>New editions and changes over time:</b><ul><li>For the second edition (October 2010), an updated version of the individual-level file was deposited, with amended GHQ12 variables. The code for respondents who did not answer the GHQ12 questions is now set at '-1' rather than '0’.</li><li>For the third edition (July 2011), the GHQ12 variables were further amended to correct errors in the GHQ12 scores. See document 'Note about GHQ12 problems in HSE Data' for details.</li><li>For the fourth edition (August 2013), since publication of the HSE 2008 survey report, four survey participants (one household) have withdrawn their consent and had their records removed from the data. Therefore, the number of cases have now been reduced to 22,619 in the individual file and 31,923 in the household file. Consequently, users may not find it possible to reproduce some figures with the same degree of accuracy presented in the accompanying documentation.</li></ul>en

dc.descriptionThe primary focus of HSE 2008 was physical activity and fitness. Adults and children were asked to recall their physical activity over recent weeks, and objective measures of physical activity and cardiovascular fitness were also obtained.<br> <br> Data collection involved an interview, followed by a visit from a specially trained nurse for all those in the core sample who agreed. Both used computer assisted interviewing. The nurse visit included measurements and collection of blood and saliva samples, as well as additional questions.<br> <br> Children aged 13-15 were interviewed themselves, and parents of children aged 0-12 were asked about their children, with the child interview including questions on physical activity and fruit and vegetable consumption.<br> <br> Standard Measures: <li>Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ)</li>en
