Understanding Society: the UK Household Longitudinal Study is the largest household panel study in the world, designed to address key scientific and policy questions of the 21st century. It collects high quality annual longitudinal data on individuals of all ages in households which are representative of the UK population. The Study's data enable researchers to explore the experiences, causes and consequences of changes in people's lives - their family structure, health, income, expenditure, employment and housing. The Study has additional dimensions that enable the detailed exploration of the circumstances of key immigrant and ethnic minority groups; investigation of inter-relations between different family members within and across households and generations; and, it collects direct measures of health and genetics to understand how people's health and wider circumstances interact. It is underpinned by robust and innovative methods, and our methodological research creates learning for other studies nationally and internationally.The Study began in 2008 with the Innovation Panel (IP), which tests methods, and the first main wave of fieldwork started in 2009. It builds on and incorporates the British Household Panel Survey, which means for some families we have data from 1991. To date, eight waves of the main Study and ten waves of the IP, as well as data collected from a nurse visit, are deposited at the UK Data Service. Further waves are in planning, in the field or being prepared for data release. This bid covers plans for data collection for Waves 13-15 and IP15-17 a boost sample to increase the size of the Study, and a range of enhancements. Our long term vision for the Study is for it to be based on integrating the best of all kinds of data on a Longitudinal Core, whilst creating novel research opportunities with new data enhancements. Our plans include more timely data collection of key life changes, such as job loss; a pregnancy study; a repeat collection of biological data. We are investigating ways to enhance our content by collecting data with new technologies. We are also planning to expand the Study to engage with key family members who live outside the household, for example, co-parents in separated families and transnational families. We also plan to broaden the range of data we harvest from external sources, as well as individual administrative records, we are investigating how we can obtain contextual data on organisations, such as employers, and places. As in previous bids, we are proposing advertising a number of fellowships competitions to build capacity in the wider research community to use the unique features of the data. Supporting researchers in universities, government, third sector and businesses to use the data effectively is fundamental to the success of the Study. We provide a wide range of resources, services and support to enable users with different backgrounds and from different kinds of organisations to make effective use of the data. We propose enhancing this further by adding a 'data gateway' to our website so users can select the data they need through a shopping basket system. We have a Policy Unit that works directly with government departments and third sector organisations to help them use Understanding Society data, and we undertake a wide range of activities to promote findings based on the Study to policy users. In this phase the Policy Unit will develop partnerships with different organisations to facilitate policy communities learning from high quality research based on the Study. We plan to continue to promote research from the Study widely through events, publications, briefings, on our website and through social media. Taken together, we firmly believe that the continued collection of data on a longitudinal core and the new data enhancements proposed will significantly increase the high quality impactful research based on the Study and hence its value to society.

了解社会：英国家庭纵向研究是世界上最大的家庭小组研究，旨在解决21世纪的关键科学和政策问题。它收集代表英国人口的家庭中所有年龄段的个人的高质量年度纵向数据。这项研究的数据使研究人员能够探索人们生活变化的经历、原因和后果--他们的家庭结构、健康、收入、支出、就业和住房。这项研究还有其他方面，能够详细探讨主要移民和少数族裔群体的情况；调查不同家庭成员之间、家庭内部和世代之间的相互关系；并收集健康和遗传学的直接衡量标准，以了解人们的健康和更广泛的情况如何相互作用。它以稳健和创新的方法为基础，我们的方法论研究为国内和国际上的其他研究创造了学习。这项研究始于2008年，由测试方法的创新小组(IP)开始，第一波主要的实地考察始于2009年。它建立在英国家庭小组调查的基础上，并将其纳入其中，这意味着对于一些家庭来说，我们拥有1991年的数据。到目前为止，8波主要研究和10波IP，以及从护士访问中收集的数据，都存放在英国数据服务中心。更多的浪潮正在规划中，正在实地进行，或者正在为数据发布做准备。这项投标涵盖了WAVE 13-15和IP15-17的数据收集计划、扩大研究规模的Boost样本以及一系列改进措施。我们对这项研究的长期愿景是，它的基础是在纵向核心上整合所有类型的最佳数据，同时通过新的数据增强创造新的研究机会。我们的计划包括更及时地收集关键生活变化的数据，如失业；怀孕研究；重复收集生物数据。我们正在研究如何通过新技术收集数据来增强我们的内容。我们还计划将这项研究扩大到与居住在家庭之外的关键家庭成员接触，例如，离散家庭和跨国家庭中的共同父母。我们还计划扩大从外部来源以及个人行政记录收集的数据范围，我们正在研究如何获得有关组织的背景数据，如雇主和地点。正如在以前的投标中一样，我们建议宣传一些奖学金竞赛，以在更广泛的研究社区建立使用数据独特功能的能力。支持大学、政府、第三部门和企业的研究人员有效地使用数据是这项研究成功的基础。我们提供广泛的资源、服务和支援，让不同背景和不同机构的用户能够有效地使用这些数据。我们建议进一步加强这一点，在我们的网站上增加一个“数据网关”，这样用户就可以通过购物篮系统选择他们需要的数据。我们有一个政策组，直接与政府部门和第三部门组织合作，帮助他们使用理解社会的数据，我们还开展了广泛的活动，向政策使用者宣传基于研究的结果。在这一阶段，政策股将与不同的组织发展伙伴关系，以促进政策界学习以研究为基础的高质量研究。我们计划继续通过活动、出版物、简报、我们的网站和社交媒体广泛推广这项研究的研究。综上所述，我们坚信，继续收集关于纵向核心的数据和拟议的新的数据改进将大大增加以该研究为基础的高质量、有影响力的研究，从而提高其社会价值。
