| Description: | <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>The main aim of the <i>United Kingdom Day Visits Survey</i>, the <i>Great Britain Day Visits Survey</i> (GBDVS), and latterly the <i>England Leisure Visits Survey</i> (ELVS), is to measure the extent of participation in day visits, and to estimate the scale and value of visits taken. In particular the principal investigators are interested in the extent of participation in different kinds of day trips, how frequently particular types of trip are undertaken, and associated expenditure.<br> <br> The survey also seeks to provide information on a number of other trip details, such as activities undertaken, areas visited, time spent at the main destination, modes of transport, distance travelled, number of people involved and the trip party composition. Respondents to the survey are generally asked to recall trips taken within the past two weeks.<br> <br> The 1998 survey covered only home-based trips (i.e. trips made from home for leisure activities, which start and finish on the same day), and did not cover business trips or holiday-based trips. <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> The dataset provides a record of all trips from home in the last two weeks to: a town, seaside, countryside, wood/forest, water (with) boats, or water (without) boats.<br> Details are asked for up to seven of the most recent trips undertaken by respondents within the last two weeks.<br> If a seaside, wood/forest, water (with) boats or water (without) boats trip has not been undertaken in the past two weeks, respondents are asked to recall the most recent trip of this type in the last twelve months and to give details of this trip instead.<br> If a town or countryside trip has not taken place in the last two weeks, respondents are not asked in detail about this trip. Instead they are only asked to recall the last time a trip of this type occurred and the frequency of this trip type in the last year.<br> <br> Standard Measures<br> Occupational coding of the chief income earner was carried out using the 1991 <i>Standard Occupational Classification</i> (SOC) published by OPCS. This was used to derive a social grade classification on the basis of the Market Research Society (MRS) <i>Dictionary of Occupations</i>. |
