It surveyed young people aged 12-17 living in the households of adults interviewed for NILT, and YLT ran alongside it from 1998-2000. Following an evaluation in 2001, the YLT series recommenced in 2003 (see SN 4826) using a completely different methodology and independent of the adult NILT. This new YLT survey uses Child Benefit records as a sampling frame.</p><p>The aims of the YLT series are to:</p><ul> <li>monitor public attitudes towards social policy and political issues in Northern Ireland;</li> <li>provide a time series on attitudes to key social policy areas;</li> <li>facilitate academic social policy analysis; provide a freely available resource on public attitudes for the wider community of users in Northern Ireland;</li> <li>give a voice to young people.</li> </ul><p> </p><p>An open access time-series teaching dataset has been created from the 2003-2012 YLTs - see SN 7548.</p><p>The <a href="https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/series/series?id=2000040#!/access-data">Kids’ Life and Times</a> (KLT) survey of P7 children (10-11 year olds) is also part of the same suite of surveys as YLT and NILT.</p><p>Further information about the YLT, including publications, may be found on the Access Research Knowledge (ARK) <a title="Young Life and Times Survey" href="http://www.ark.ac.uk/nilt/ylt/index.html">YLT</a> webpages.</p> Dataset [data collection]
