Understanding Society:
The UK Household Longitudinal Study
Professor Michaela Benzeval CBE, Director, Understanding Society, Institute for Social and Economic Research, University of Essex, outlines how using data gathered annually from all members sampled of families over many years, creates unique research opportunities for studying family dynamics.
The study follows families as they form, expand and when family members move on. It enables interrelations and changing caring roles between couples, siblings and generations within and across households to be explored.
Michaela outlines these research opportunities and discusses the challenges they create for the survey and the ways they have addressed them.
