This survey is part of a continuing series designed to monitor trends in a wide range of social attitudes in Great Britain. The British Social Attitudes Survey (BSA) is similar in purpose to the General Social Survey carried out by the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) in the United States. The BSA questionnaire has two parts, one administered by an interviewer and the other completed by the respondent. As in the past, the 2000 interview questionnaire contained a number of "core" questions covering the major topic areas of defense, the economy, labor market participation, and the welfare state. The 2000 self-enumerated questionnaire was devoted to a series of questions on a range of social, economic, political, and moral issues. Topics covered are: (1) political attitudes, (2) democracy and political participation, (3) constitutional change, (4) social trust, (5) public spending and welfare, (6) health care, (7) labor market issues, (8) cohabitation and marriage, (9) teenage pregnancies, (10) education, (11) transportation, and (12) genetics. An international initiative funded by the Nuffield Foundation, the International Social Survey Program (ISSP), also contributed a module to the BSA. The topic of the ISSP module in this collection was the environment. Additional demographic data gathered included age, gender, education, occupation, household income, marital status, social class, and religious and political affiliations.Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR03899.v1
