Description: <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P><p>The&nbsp;<em>1970 British Cohort Study</em>&nbsp;(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-studies has also been conducted, including SN 4715,&nbsp;<span style="font-style: italic;">1970 British Cohort Study: Age 21 Sample Survey, 1992</span> and SN 7064,&nbsp;<span style="font-style: italic;">1970 British Cohort Study: Age 10, Sweep 3 Special Needs Survey, 1980</span></p><p>Further information about the BCS70 and may be found on the&nbsp;<a title="Centre for Longitudinal Studies" href="http://www.cls.ioe.ac.uk/">Centre for Longitudinal Studies</a>&nbsp;website.
