Abstract

Data collected for an online study with UK-based farm veterinarians (n=97) that was conducted during 2018. Study methods were an experimental vignette and cross-sectional survey. Vignette explored the impact of different conditions (control, economics, farmer, vet-client relationship) on veterinarians' likelihood of prescribing antimicrobials. Cross-sectional survey measured details about vets' values (hedonic, egoistic, biospheric, altruistic) and their beliefs about different groups' responsibilities for causing and preventing antimicrobial resistance.

Specific study that data relate to has been published as journal article: Golding, S.E., Ogden, J., and Higgins, H.M. "Examining the Effect of Context, Beliefs, and Values on UK Farm Veterinarians’ Antimicrobial Prescribing: A Randomized Experimental Vignette and Cross-Sectional Survey", in Antibiotics, 2021. Online study conducted with 97 farm veterinarians. PhD was funded through - Doctoral Training Partnerships: a range of postgraduate training is funded by the Research Councils.
