The growth of home-ownership, however, has probably increased the number of people who will both bequeath and inherit assets. <br> <br> The <i>Attitudes to Inheritance, 2004</i> study was commissioned by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation in order to research people's attitudes to inheritance. Initial developmental work for the project comprised a literature review, secondary analysis of previous qualitative and quantitative studies and four focus group discussions conducted with owner-occupiers. The main component of the study was a nationally representative survey of 2,008 people living in Britain, the results of which comprise this dataset.<B>Main Topics</B>:<BR>Topics covered in the survey included: attitudes to inheritance; household composition and demographic characteristics of household members; housing; liquid savings; inheritances received; lifetime gifts; future inheritances and wills; personal finance; attitudes to care for family members; and inheritance tax. 06 September 2004 - 07 October 200406 September 200407 October 2004 Great Britain IndividualsNational Adults living in Britain in 2004.
