SUMMARY:UK Data Service: Data in the spotlight: Longitudinal data
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that longitudinal data from major social studies s
 uch as the British Birth Cohort Studies\, Understanding Society and the En
 glish Longitudinal Study of Ageing can be accessed for research?\n\nThe lo
 ngitudinal studies are extremely rich data sources for high impact and pol
 icy relevant research. The British Birth Cohort Studies (e.g. the National
  Child Development Study 1958 and The Millennium Cohort Study) follow the 
 same group of children born in a specific year throughout their lives\, tr
 acking changes and unravelling the reasons behind them. Understanding Soci
 ety is an innovative and world-leading study about live and its changes in
  the UK in the 21st century. The real world impact of these studies contin
 ues to be substantial. Additionally\, the Covid-19 pandemic has created a 
 defining moment for longitudinal research.\n\nLongitudinal studies provide
  a unique opportunity to track both short and long term effects of the pan
 demic\, alongside invaluable pre-pandemic measures of health and behaviour
 . Many longitudinal studies have added Covid-19 specific datasets and we w
 ill explore what some of these cover.\n\nMost of the studies can be downlo
 aded after a short registration. Subsamples of some of these datasets are 
 also available for teaching purposes.\n\nThis free 90-minute online worksh
 op will consist of a 30-minute presentation\, followed by 20 minutes for q
 uestions\, and an optional 40-minute hands-on practical. The presentation 
 and hands-on are separate parts of the workshop and attending the hands-on
  is optional.\n\nThe workshop will include:\n\n 	an overview of the longit
 udinal studies available via the UK Data Service\n 	a tour on how to navig
 ate our new website to search for longitudinal studies\n 	quiz and partici
 pant interaction\n 	updates and findings from Covid-19 datasets\n 	the key
  features of longitudinal surveys and the policy relevance (impact) of the
  information they contain\nhow to access the data\, undertake exploratory 
 online analysis and get further help.\n\nPresenters: Beate Lichtwardt and 
 James Rayner\n\nLevel: Introductory\nExperience/knowledge required: None\n
 Target audience: Researchers/anyone interested in longitudinal data\n\nThi
 s event will be livestreamed on our UK Data Service YouTube channel but
