<P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P><br>In 2006, the Office for Disability Issues commissioned a research project to explore the lives of disabled people in Great Britain today. The study aimed to develop a generalised picture to better understand disabled people’s experiences and opinions. It also aimed to provide information to aid the monitoring of progress towards the Government’s vision of achieving substantive equality for disabled people by 2025. The research project interviewed 1,860 disabled people in Britain during July and August 2007 and was unusual because it actively involved disabled people at all stages of the study. <br> <br> The scope of the study, including the issues to be included in the research, was guided by disabled people. The study covered a wide range of issues including home life, social activities, transport, education, employment and finances. The study also looked at experiences of discrimination.<br> <br><br><B>Main Topics</B>:<BR><br>The dataset contains information on the following topics:<ul><li>demographics and household structure</li><li>aids and adaptations</li><li>transport and getting around</li><li>social networks</li><li>employment and work</li><li>income and benefits</li><li>health</li><li>education and qualifications</li><li>sources of information</li><li> the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA)</li><li>quality of life</li></ul><P>本摘要版权归英国数据服务中心（UK Data Service）及数据采集版权所有者所有。</P><br>2006年，英国残疾人士事务办公室（Office for Disability Issues）委托开展一项研究项目，以探究当今大不列颠境内残疾人士的生活现状。本研究旨在构建全景画像，以更深入地了解残疾人士的经历与观点，同时助力监测英国政府到2025年实现残疾人士实质平等的愿景进展。<br><br>该研究项目于2007年7月至8月期间，对英国境内1860名残疾人士进行了访谈，其独特之处在于全程邀请残疾人士深度参与研究的各个环节。<br><br>本研究的范围（涵盖拟纳入研究的议题）由残疾人士主导制定。研究覆盖了家庭生活、社交活动、出行交通、教育、就业与财务状况等广泛议题，同时也探讨了残疾人士遭受歧视的相关经历。<br><br><B>核心研究主题</B>:<BR><br>本数据集包含以下主题的相关信息：<ul><li>人口统计学特征与家庭结构</li><li>辅助器具与适配改造</li><li>出行交通与日常通勤</li><li>社会网络</li><li>就业与职场状况</li><li>收入与福利保障</li><li>健康状况</li><li>教育经历与学历资质</li><li>信息获取渠道</li><li>《残疾歧视法》（Disability Discrimination Act，DDA）</li><li>生活质量</li></ul>
