Kids' Life and Times Survey, 2010

The <i>Kids' Life and Times Survey</i> (KLT) began in 2008 and is conducted by Access Research Knowledge (ARK) which runs the <a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data">Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey</a> (NILT) and the <a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data">Young Life and Times Survey</a> (YLT). The KLT is a survey of Primary year 7 (P7) children in Northern Ireland which is carried out online and in school. (Note that NILT did not run in 2011, but resumed in 2012. The KLT and YLT both ran as normal in 2011.)<br>
<br>
The aims of the KLT are to:<ul><li>provide broad-based monitoring systems to examine children's views on policy issues on a regular basis</li><li>ensure that the information from the survey is fed back to policymakers and others engaged in the policy debates around children and their lives</li><li>provide a high profile endorsement of 'participation' by Northern Ireland's children</li></ul>Further information about KLT, including the comic-style publication with key results especially designed for children, may be found on the ARK main <a href="http://www.ark.ac.uk/klt/" title="Kids' Life and Times Survey">Kids' Life and Times Survey</a> web pages.<br>
The 2010 KLT survey built on the success of the 2008 and 2009 KLT surveys and used the same methodology to assess the views of Primary 7 children in Northern Ireland. However, based on the results of a post-survey consultation exercise with some school principals, the fieldwork for the 2010 survey took place in February/March. It was hoped that this would help to increase the response rate.<br>

《儿童生活与时态调查》（KLT）始于2008年，由Access Research Knowledge（ARK）负责实施，该机构同时开展<a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data">北爱尔兰生活与时态调查</a>（NILT）和<a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data">青年生活与时态调查</a>（YLT）。KLT是针对北爱尔兰小学7年级（P7）儿童的调查，采用线上与校内相结合的方式进行。（注：NILT于2011年暂停开展，2012年恢复；KLT与YLT在2011年均正常开展。）<br><br>KLT的目标包括：<ul><li>建立广泛的监测体系，定期考察儿童对政策议题的看法</li><li>确保调查信息反馈给政策制定者及其他参与儿童生活相关政策讨论的人员</li><li>为北爱尔兰儿童的“参与”提供高关注度的支持</li></ul>有关KLT的更多信息，包括专为儿童设计、包含关键结果的漫画风格出版物，可在ARK官方<a href="http://www.ark.ac.uk/klt/" title="Kids' Life and Times Survey">儿童生活与时态调查</a>网页上查询。<br>2010年KLT调查在2008年和2009年KLT调查成功的基础上开展，采用相同的方法评估北爱尔兰小学7年级儿童的看法。不过，基于与部分校长的调查后咨询结果，2010年调查的实地工作于2月/3月进行，期望此举能提高回应率。<br>
