Abstract:

With the increasing proportion of households on Understanding Society that are issued web-first, and more households completing online, we have witnessed a fall in the response rates for the youth self-completion questionnaire, for those aged 10-15. This fall appears to be among both households completing online and among those still responding face-to-face. Engagement with the survey among those joining the adult survey (aged 16-21 years) is also lower than other groups. On 21st May 2024, Understanding Society organised a workshop to discuss these issues. This working paper is a brief report of the presentations and discussions from that workshop.
