Your interviewer on this study will be

Dear Sir or Madam

I would like to ask for your help with the Scottish Health Survey, a very important survey used by the Scottish Government, NHS Scotland, local Health Boards, councils, universities and charities to make decisions about health policies which affect everyone in Scotland. The survey takes place annually and last year over 5,000 households took part.

Your household has been chosen at random to take part in this survey. To ensure that the final results are accurate, we must interview people from all over Scotland and from all walks of life. This is why it is important to make sure that your household is included.

The survey is carried out for the Scottish Government by professional interviewers from ScotCen Social Research. In the next few days an interviewer will call at your house. They will show you a ScotCen official identification card which includes a photo and an interviewer number. The interviewer will ask some general health questions and, if you agree, they will take some measurements such as height, weight and blood pressure.

Your answers will be kept completely confidential (in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998) and will be used for statistical and research purposes only. This may include results about your general health, diet and physical activity. No information that allows you to be identified will be made public.

As a way of saying thank you, each adult that participates will be given a £10 voucher which can be spent in a number of different shops.

On the back of this letter we have answered some of the questions you may have. The enclosed leaflet also tells you more about this very important survey. For further information you can also call our freephone on 0800 652 4569, email scottishhealthsurvey@scotcen.org.uk, or visit the survey website: www.scottishhealthsurvey.org.

I do hope you will take part. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Yours faithfully

Individual interview

Notes

1. This is an edited documentation of the computer programmes used in the SHeS household and individual. Instead of being numbered each question has a variable name; these are identified here in square brackets, e.g.: [varname].
2. Not all variables that appear here will be on the final data file (those that are not are marked with a '*'). Similarly, not all derived variables that will be on the data file are mentioned here. There will be a separate documentation of derived variables when the data is released.
3. Routing instructions appear above the questions. A routing instruction should be considered to stay in force until the next routing instruction.
4. Sections of text in brackets and italics were filled in as appropriate on the interviewers' computers.
5. Individual codes marked 'EDIT ONLY' were used by the editors to reclassify 'other' answers and are not visible during the main interviews.
6. For some questions respondents could give a different answer to the main options they were presented with. Such answers are recorded verbatim and were examined during the editing process to see whether they could be 'back-coded' to one of the existing answer categories. These will not be available on the data file and have been indicated within this documentation with a '*'.
7. Some questions allowed respondents to give more than one answer (indicated within this documentation with the instruction: 'CODE ALL THAT APPLY'). In these cases each individual answer option will have its own variable name which is shown in square brackets to the right of the answer.
8. The symbol '$' has been used to flag CAPI questions which have been used in conjunction with Self-Complete questions to combine the answers into a separate derived variable.

Scottish Health Survey 2012 - Survey outline

  • A household interview with the household reference person (HRP) or their spouse or partner
  • An individual interview with eligible participants. Eligibility criteria for each of the three sample types were as follows:
    • Main sample -up to ten adults and two children per household
    • Child boost sample - up to two children (0-15) per household
    • Health Board boost sample - up to ten adults per household

Questionnaire content
Household questionnaire
There was only one version of the household questionnaire across all three sample types in 2012. The household questionnaire documentation begins on page 7 of this documentation.

Individual questionnaire
The questionnaire content varied depending firstly on the sample type, and then the age of the participants being interviewed. The questionnaire documentation details exactly who was eligible to answer particular modules and questions within these modules.

  • Main sample - there were two versions of the individual interview questionnaire for the main sample: version A and version B. The content and order of the individual interview differed depending on which version a household was selected to go through. Some topics were asked in both versions of the questionnaire, e.g. 'general health including caring' and 'eating habits for children' while other topics are only asked in one of the versions, e.g. 'respiratory and CVD symptoms' in version A. The below table outlines which topics are asked in which version of the questionnaire.
  • Child Boost sample - The individual questionnaire at child boost households followed the same format as a main version A individual questionnaire (see table below).
  • Health Board Boost sample - Adults in the Health Board boost sample were only asked questions on those topics that appeared in both version A and version B of the individual interview, for example, general health, and physical activity.

Points to note:

  • There are four versions of the questionnaire in the mainstage: Core Version A; Core Version B (biological module); Child Boost; and Health Board Boost.
  • Children are not eligible for the biological module in Core Version B or at Health Board Boost sampled addresses.
  • The below table indicates what should be in each version and the order of the interview. The associated CAPI block names are in [] after the topic.

ADVICE TO RESPONDENTS ON BLOOD PRESSURE READING:

IF Systolic reading >179 OR Diastolic reading >114 THEN:

TICK THE CONSIDERABLY RAISED BOX AND READ OUT TO RESPONDENT: Your blood pressure is high today. Blood pressure can vary from day to day and throughout the day so that one high reading does not necessarily mean that you suffer from high blood pressure. You are strongly advised to visit your GP within 5 days to have a further blood pressure reading to see whether this is a once-off finding or not.

IF Systolic reading 160-179 OR Diastolic reading 100-114 THEN:

TICK THE RAISED BOX AND READ OUT TO RESPONDENT: Your blood pressure is a bit high today. Blood pressure can vary from day to day and throughout the day so that one high reading does not necessarily mean that you suffer from high blood pressure. You are advised to visit your GP within 2-3 weeks to have a further blood pressure reading to see whether this is a once-off finding or not.

IF Systolic reading 140-159 OR Diastolic reading 85-99 THEN:

TICK THE MILDLY RAISED BOX AND READ OUT TO RESPONDENT: Your blood pressure is a bit high today. Blood pressure can vary from day to day and throughout the day so that one high reading does not necessarily mean that you suffer from high blood pressure. You are advised to visit your GP within 3 months to have a further blood pressure reading to see whether this is a once-off finding or not.

IF Systolic reading <140 AND Diastolic reading <85 THEN:

TICK THE NORMAL BOX AND READ OUT TO RESPONDENT: Your blood pressure is normal.
