Secure Access CSEW data In addition to the main survey, a series of questions covering drinking behaviour, drug use, self-offending, gangs and personal security, and intimate personal violence (IPV) (including stalking and sexual victimisation) are asked of adults via a laptop-based self-completion module (questions may vary over the years). Children aged 10-15 years also complete a separate self-completion questionnaire. The questionnaires are included in the main documentation, but the data are only available under Secure Access conditions (see SN 7280), not with the main study. In addition, from 2011 onwards, lower-level geographic variables are also available under Secure Access conditions (see SN 7311).
New methodology for capping the number of incidents from 2017-18 The CSEW datasets available from 2017-18 onwards are based on a new methodology of capping the number of incidents at the 98th percentile. Incidence variables names have remained consistent with previously supplied data but due to the fact they are based on the new 98th percentile cap, and old datasets are not, comparability has been lost with years prior to 2012-2013. More information can be found in the 2017-18 User Guide (see SN 8464) and the article ‘Improving victimisation estimates derived from the Crime Survey for England and Wales’.
The 2000 BCS was the largest wave of the survey to date, with a target sample of 24,000 households in England and Wales, including an ethnic booster sample of 4,000 black and Asian adults. As with the previous surveys, the aim was to gather information on respondents' experience of crime over the previous 13-14 months. \n \nA teaching dataset, using a subset of variables from the 2000 BCS, has been developed and is held under SN 4740. \n \nFor the fourth edition of the study (January 2007), the drugs self-completion data file was replaced with a new version that includes further derived variables. The ethnic boost sample drugs data file has not been replaced. From October 2016, the drug use modules are subject to Controlled data access conditions - see SN 7280. \n
