Opinions and Lifestyle Survey, Well-Being Module, January, February, March and April, 2013

<p>The <em>Opinions and Lifestyle Survey</em> (OPN) is an omnibus survey that collects data from respondents in Great Britain. Information is gathered on a range of subjects, commissioned both internally by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and by external clients (other government departments, charities, non-profit organisations and academia).</p><p>One individual respondent, aged 16 or over, is selected from each sampled private household to answer questions. Data are gathered on the respondent, their family, address, household, income and education, plus responses and opinions on a variety of subjects within commissioned modules. Each regular OPN survey consists of two elements. Core questions, covering demographic information, are asked together with non-core questions that vary depending on the module(s) fielded.</p><p>The OPN collects timely data for research and policy analysis evaluation on the social impacts of recent topics of national importance, such as the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the cost of living. The OPN has expanded to include questions on other topics of national importance, such as health and the cost of living.</p><p>For more information about the survey and its methodology, see the gov.uk <a href="https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthandsocialcare/healthandlifeexpectancies/methodologies/opinionsandlifestylesurveyqmi">OPN Quality and Methodology Information</a> (QMI) webpage.</p><p><strong>Changes over time</strong></p><p>Up to March 2018, the OPN was conducted as a face-to-face survey. From April 2018 to November 2019, the OPN changed to a mixed-mode design (online first with telephone interviewing where necessary). Mixed-mode collection allows respondents to complete the survey more flexibly and provides a more cost-effective service for module customers.</p><p>In March 2020, the OPN was adapted to become a weekly survey used to collect data on the social impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on the lives of people of Great Britain. These data are held under Secure Access conditions in SN 8635, <em>ONS Opinions and Lifestyle Survey, 2019-2023: Secure Access</em>. (See below for information on other Secure Access OPN modules.)</p><p>From August 2021, as coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions were lifted across Great Britain, the OPN moved to fortnightly data collection, sampling around 5,000 households in each survey wave to ensure the survey remained sustainable.</p><p>

</p><p><strong>Secure Access OPN modules</strong><br><br>Besides SN 8635 (which includes the COVID-19 Module), other Secure Access OPN data includes sensitive modules run at various points from 1997-2019, including Census religion (SN 8078), cervical cancer screening (SN 8080), contact after separation (SN 8089), contraception (SN 8095), disability (SNs 8680 and 8096), general lifestyle (SN 8092), illness and activity (SN 8094), and non-resident parental contact (SN 8093).

《观点与生活方式调查》（Opinions and Lifestyle Survey，简称OPN）是一项综合调查，面向英国大不列颠地区的受访者收集数据。调查内容涵盖多个主题，委托方既包括英国国家统计局（Office for National Statistics, ONS）内部，也包括外部客户（其他政府部门、慈善机构、非营利组织及学术界）。
从每个被抽样的私人住户中选取一名16岁及以上的受访者作答。调查收集受访者自身、其家庭、住址、住户、收入与教育相关信息，以及委托模块中各类主题的回应与观点。每一期常规OPN调查包含两部分内容：涵盖人口统计信息的核心问题，以及随所采用的调研模块而异的非核心问题。
OPN会及时收集数据，用于研究与政策分析评估近期国家重大议题的社会影响，例如新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）疫情与生活成本问题。目前OPN已拓展纳入其他国家重大议题相关问题，如健康与生活成本。

**调查的历史变迁**
2018年3月之前，OPN采用面对面调查方式。2018年4月至2019年11月期间，OPN变更为混合模式调查设计（优先采用线上调查，必要时辅以电话访谈）。混合模式采集方式可让受访者更灵活地完成调查，同时为模块委托方提供更具成本效益的服务。
2020年3月，OPN调整为每周调查，用于收集新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）疫情对大不列颠地区民众生活造成的社会影响相关数据。此类数据以安全访问模式存储于研究编号SN 8635的数据集《英国国家统计局2019-2023年观点与生活方式调查：安全访问版》（ONS Opinions and Lifestyle Survey, 2019-2023: Secure Access）中。（其他安全访问版OPN模块的相关信息详见下文。）
2021年8月起，随着英国各地解除新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）防控限制，OPN转为每两周开展一次数据采集，每轮调查约抽样5000户住户，以保障调查的可持续性。

**安全访问版OPN模块**
除研究编号SN 8635（包含新冠疫情模块）外，其他安全访问版OPN数据还涵盖1997年至2019年期间不同时段开展的敏感主题模块，包括人口普查宗教信仰模块（SN 8078）、宫颈癌筛查模块（SN 8080）、分居后联系情况模块（SN 8089）、避孕相关模块（SN 8095）、残疾情况模块（SN 8680与SN 8096）、总体生活方式模块（SN 8092）、疾病与活动情况模块（SN 8094），以及非居住父母联系情况模块（SN 8093）。如需了解更多细节及申请使用方式，请参阅各单项研究的相关说明。
