This survey is part of a continuing series designed to monitor trends in a wide range of social attitudes in Great Britain. The British Social Attitudes Survey (BSA) is similar in purpose to the General Social Survey carried out by the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) in the United States. The BSA questionnaire has two parts, one administered by an interviewer and the other completed by the respondent. As in the past, the 1994 interview questionnaire contained a number of "core" questions covering the major topic areas of defense, the economy, labor market participation, and the welfare state. The 1994 self-enumerated questionnaire was devoted to a series of questions on a range of social, economic, political, and moral issues. Topics covered (by sections) are: (1) Britain's relations with other countries, (2) the role of government and civil liberties, (3) charitable giving, (4) families and children, (5) efficiency of and trust in institutions, (6) the countryside, (7) crime, (8) divorce, (9) education, (10) the environment, (11) housing, (12) the child care system, (13) health care, (14) economic issues and policies, (15) government spending, (16) taxation, (17) racial discrimination, (18) sexual behavior, (19) the death penalty, and (20) newspaper readership. Beginning in 1985, an international initiative funded by the Nuffield Foundation, the International Social Survey Program (ISSP), also contributed a module to the BSA. The topic of the ISSP module in this collection was the family and changing gender roles. Additional demographic data gathered included age, gender, education, occupation, marital status, household income, social class, and religious and political affiliations.
