Longitudinal Study Young People LSYPE

项目摘要

The Longitudinal Study of Young People in England (LSYPE) was launched in 2004 with an initial sample of around 15,700 young people in year nine, and therefore aged 13 or 14. Information has been collected from the study members every year for seven years, and the most recent survey was conducted in 2012 when individuals were 19 or 20. For the first four years of the study their parents were also interviewed. The LSYPE was funded by the Department for Education (DfE) and they have used the evidence from the study to inform policy making and to help improve services for young people. For example, the decision to raise the compulsory participation age in education and training from 16 to 18 was influenced by findings from the study. It has also been widely used by academic researchers in the UK and elsewhere. The main things that have been studied are factors affecting young people's progress through school and into further or higher education, training, or work, and how this is influenced by family background and young people's aspirations and attitudes towards school. One of the strengths of the LSYPE is that it has been linked with the DfE's administrative records of all state schools and pupils - the National Pupil Database. This includes information about each school and pupil. Most importantly, it provides details of the young people's educational attainment at GCSE and A-level. Other administrative datasets have potential for research, including records about further and higher education, state benefits and earnings, hospital admissions and criminal behaviour. Linking existing LSYPE data to these administrative records would enable further useful research. It would provide information on study members at age 22/23, and into the future, without having to conduct further surveys. However, this can't be done without the permission of the study members, and it is important that they understand fully what is planned. The first step will be to re-contact the study members to ask them permission for this data linkage and for the DfE to pass on their contact details so that we can continue the study. This will be done by posting them a leaflet and consent forms, and asking them to return them. The next step will be to provide the government departments, who hold these administrative records, with the name, sex, date of birth and address of study members who agree, in order that they can find them in their records and extract the data about them. Once we have the linked data, we will prepare it for use by other researchers by creating summary variables and producing a guide to how to use the data. We will encourage the use of the data by running separate workshops for researchers interested in health, education and economic information. The data will be stored securely, and only made available to bona-fide researchers. The DfE will also pass on the contact details, of study members who agree, and we will store them in a secure address database. We can then maintain contact with the study members, and send them summaries of research findings based on the study. We hope it will be possible to survey them in the future, both to collect information which would help us to understand the linked data, and to ask for information not included in administrative sources. However, this can only be done if additional funding can be secured. The LSYPE has already provided rich information about young people's pathways through secondary school and into higher education or the labour market. However, extending the information we have about these young people will allow us to understand the outcomes of different trajectories and of family background, risky behaviours, and attitudes and aspirations. This is particularly important as this generation, born in 1989/1990, is entering young adulthood at a time when the British Government is still grappling with the consequences of a severe world recession.

英国年轻人纵向研究(LSYPE)于2004年启动，最初的样本是9年级的15,700名年轻人，他们的年龄是13或14岁。七年来每年都从研究成员那里收集信息，最近的一次调查是在2012年进行的，当时每个人的年龄都在19岁或20岁。在研究的前四年，他们的父母也被采访了。LSYPE由教育部(DFE)资助，他们利用这项研究的证据为政策制定提供信息，并帮助改善对年轻人的服务。例如，将强制参加教育和培训的年龄从16岁提高到18岁的决定受到了研究结果的影响。它也被英国和其他地方的学术研究人员广泛使用。已研究的主要问题是影响年轻人通过学校、升学或高等教育、培训或工作取得进展的因素，以及家庭背景和年轻人对学校的渴望和态度如何影响这一点。LSYPE的优势之一是它与教育部所有公立学校和学生的行政记录--国家学生数据库--联系在一起。这包括关于每个学校和学生的信息。最重要的是，它提供了年轻人在普通中等教育证书和高级程度考试中的教育程度的详细信息。其他行政数据集也有研究的潜力，包括关于继续教育和高等教育、国家福利和收入、住院人数和犯罪行为的记录。将现有的LSYPE数据与这些管理记录联系起来，将使进一步的有用研究成为可能。它将提供年龄在22/23岁的研究成员的信息，以及未来的信息，而不必进行进一步的调查。然而，没有研究成员的许可，这是不能做到的，重要的是他们充分了解计划是什么。第一步是重新联系研究成员，请求他们允许这种数据链接，并让DFE传递他们的联系方式，以便我们可以继续研究。为此，将向他们张贴传单和同意书，并要求他们退还。下一步将向持有这些行政记录的政府部门提供同意的学习成员的姓名、性别、出生日期和地址，以便他们可以在自己的记录中找到他们，并提取有关他们的数据。一旦我们有了关联的数据，我们将通过创建汇总变量并生成如何使用数据的指南来准备它，以供其他研究人员使用。我们将通过为对健康、教育和经济信息感兴趣的研究人员举办单独的研讨会来鼓励使用这些数据。这些数据将被安全地存储，只有真正的研究人员才能获得。DFE还将传递同意的研究成员的联系方式，我们将把它们存储在安全地址数据库中。然后，我们可以与研究成员保持联系，并将基于研究的研究结果摘要发送给他们。我们希望将来有可能对它们进行调查，以收集有助于我们了解相关数据的信息，并要求提供行政来源中未包括的信息。然而，只有在获得额外资金的情况下，才能做到这一点。LSYPE已经提供了关于年轻人从中学到接受高等教育或进入劳动力市场的丰富信息。然而，扩展我们掌握的关于这些年轻人的信息，将使我们能够了解不同轨迹和家庭背景、危险行为以及态度和愿望的结果。这一点特别重要，因为出生于/1990年的这一代人正进入青壮年，而此时英国政府仍在努力应对世界严重衰退的后果。
