British Crime Survey 2007-2008: Teaching Dataset

The <i>British Crime Survey 2007-2008: Teaching Dataset</i> is based on the <i>British Crime Survey, 2007-2008</i> (available from the UK Data Archive under SN 6066) and constitutes real data which are used by the Home Office and are behind many headlines. The teaching dataset is a subset, which has been subjected to certain simplifications and additions for the purpose of learning and teaching. (Note that the main <i>British Crime Survey</i> has now become the <i>Crime Survey for England and Wales</i>, but titles of older studies in the series remain the same.) <br> <br> The main differences are:<ul><li>only respondents who completed Module B (attitudes to the Criminal Justice System) of the <i>BCS, 2007-2008</i> are included</li><li>the number of variables has been reduced</li><li>weighting has been simplified</li><li>a reduced codebook is provided</li><li>additional continuous variables have been created (using factor analysis of pre-existing variables) in order to facilitate their use in quantitative methods classes</li></ul>Further information is available in the study documentation (below) which includes a dataset user guide and additional notes for teachers.<br>

《2007-2008年英国犯罪调查：教学数据集》基于《2007-2008年英国犯罪调查》（British Crime Survey，BCS，可通过英国数据档案馆（UK Data Archive）以编号SN 6066获取），所用数据均为英国内政部（Home Office）实际使用的真实调研数据，亦是诸多新闻报道背后的核心实证依据。本教学数据集为原调查的子集，为适配教学与学习需求，已针对数据进行了针对性简化与补充处理。需注意，原《英国犯罪调查》现已更名为《英格兰与威尔士犯罪调查》（Crime Survey for England and Wales），但该系列早期调研的名称仍沿用旧称。<br><br>本教学数据集与原调查的主要差异如下：<ul><li>仅纳入完成《2007-2008年英国犯罪调查》B模块（刑事司法体系态度调查）的受访者</li><li>精简了变量数量</li><li>简化了加权处理流程</li><li>提供了精简版编码手册</li><li>为便于定量方法课程的教学应用，通过对现有变量进行因子分析，新增了若干连续型变量</li></ul>更多详细信息可参阅下方的调研文档，其中包含数据集用户指南与教师专用补充说明。<br>
