The project seeks to further our understanding of what it means to be a child or young person growing up in modern Ireland, with a view to informing policy on what both helps and hinders development. The Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (DCEDIY) requested that the Growing Up in Ireland Study Team develop a survey capturing the experiences of the Growing Up in Ireland Cohorts during the pandemic in 2020 with a view to informing longitudinal analysis of the impact of variations in their experiences on young people’s outcomes. The web survey was hosted by the Central Statistics Office. The sample for the Covid-19 Survey was drawn from both Growing Up in Ireland Cohorts. It consisted of all of those who had participated in the first wave of the study and who were still eligible for contact. 2020-122020-12 Ireland Family: Household family This project took place in Q4 of 2020, when Cohort ‘08 were 12/13 years old (87% were 12 years old with 13% having just turned 13), and Cohort ‘98 were 22 years old (with 14% having turned 23 years of age by December 2020). The children of the ‘08 Cohort were born between 1st December 2007 and the 30th June 2008 the 98’ Cohort were born between 1997 and 1998. 8,643 invitations were sent out to Cohort ’08 households, which included an invitation for the Primary Caregiver and Young Person, and 6,810 invitations were sent to 22-year-olds. Survey data Cross-section For Cohort ’08 the original wave 1 sample at 9 months was selected from the Child Benefit Register, using a simple systematic selection procedure based on a random start and constant sampling fraction. For Cohort ’98 the original wave 2 sample at 9 years was selected using a two-stage sample design. First a random sample of Primary Schools was recruited, and then a random sample of 9-year-old children was selected from within the schools. The sample for the Covid-19 web survey was based on all the original sample less those that have deceased, moved abroad, or who had requested to be removed from the sample.
