Epidemiology of Cohort Social Media, 2018-2019
Interactions on social media have the potential to help us to understand human behaviour, including the development of both good and poor mental health. However, to do the best science we need to know as much as possible about the people who are participating in our research. The CLOSER group of UK longitudinal cohorts include people who have contributed their data to...
Effects of Labels and Advertisements on Sugary Drinks Representations, 2020-2022
Many people consume too much sugar from sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and would benefit from drinking water instead. Previous research has shown that taste and reward expectations play a key role in food and drink choices, and that thinking about drinks in terms of consuming and enjoying them (i.e., simulations) predicts desire and intake. Here, we examined whether labels...

The study has two different elements; a web survey...
Testing the Efficacy and Mechanisms of Collaborative Implementation Intentions, 2008-2010
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.Research shows that asking people to plan when, where and how to perform behaviour (i.e. implementation intentions) enhances the probability of action. Such implementation intentions can be formed alone or with another person. This study includes the data from two experiments which tested whether the...
Improving the normalisation of complex interventions: NoMAD
The NoMAD study developed and validated a survey instrument for assessing the implementation of complex interventions from the perspective of (healthcare) staff, based on Normalization Process Theory (NPT). The data set contains 522 surveys from 6 different implementation projects. The data comprises responses to 43 statements that reflect factors affecting routine embedding...
Linking experimental and survey data: behavioural experiments in health and wellbeing
The project combined, for the first time, survey data from the Innovation Panel (IP) of Understanding Society (USoc) with new experimental data on risk preferences (the desire for taking a gamble) and time preferences (the degree to which the present is valued more than the future). It explored the links between individual risk and time preferences and behaviour, with a...
A behavioural dataset for studying individual differences in language skills 2019
This resource contains data from 112 Dutch adults (18-29 years of age) who completed the Individual Differences in Language Skills test battery that included 33 behavioural tests assessing language skills and domain-general cognitive skills likely involved in language tasks. The battery included tests measuring linguistic experience (e.g. vocabulary size, prescriptive...
Pay insecurity: An experimental study 2020
These data were collected as part of a three-year project funded by the Nuffield Foundation. The project aimed to collect experimental evidence on labour supply responses to uncertainty about work availability and associated pay.
301 low-income UK residents took part in several experimental sessions. The experiment was conducted on a tablet/PC via a custom-built web...
Antibiotic Prescribing in Care Homes: A Multidisciplinary Approach, 2022
ARCH was a multidisciplinary, four Work Package, project involving key stakeholders to improve understanding, and ultimately practice, around infection detection/management and antibiotic use in care homes for older people.
WP1 used statistical analysis of anonymised quantitative data, finding wide variation in antibiotic prescribing rates, and informing selection of care...
Accumulation: Late and Brief in Preferential Choice, 2017-2020
Preferential choices are often explained using models within the evidence accumulation framework: value drives the drift rate at which evidence is accumulated until a threshold is reached and an option is chosen. Although rarely stated explicitly, almost all such models assume that decision makers have knowledge at the onset of the choice of all available attributes and...
Assessing ocular activity during performance of motor skills using electrooculography 2018
This collection contains Quiet Eye (QE) duration (separating pre‐ and post-movement initiation components) and Eye Quietness (EQ) data as a function of time in a golf putting task. Movement duration was also measured using a combination of infrared and sound sensors. Twenty healthy adults participated in this study (10 expert golfers and 10 novices).Research has revealed...
