The Potential of Existing Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Surveys to Support the Commonwealth Games 2014 Legacy Evaluation

Glasgow Household Survey

Glasgow City Council

An annual survey of Glasgow residents to assess use and perceptions of local services, and views on other local issues. The survey has run since 1999

Cross-sectional

Adult Glasgow residents (aged 16+)

Annual (was biannual until 2013)

Spring 2014 and more than likely annually after that, budget permitting

Likely - Council services and council partners are given the opportunity to submit question suggestions at the beginning of each year. This includes the local Commonwealth Games Legacy Team with which the Scottish Government is in regular contact

(* indicates if sample is designed for estimates to be representative in these geographies)

Community Planning Partnership area and Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation. (From 2013 the CPP area analysis will be replaced with Sector Partnership Area analysis, reflecting recent changes to the structure for community planning in Glasgow). Postcodes are also routinely collected as part of the survey, so it is possible to carry out bespoke spatial analysis.

Postcode Address File

Sample points are selected at random across the city and, within each point, a quota of residents is interviewed. Until 2013 the sample was stratified by Community Planning Area (CPA) and from 2013 onwards it will be stratified by Sector Partnership Area.

Face to face interviewing (Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing)

Response rates are not calculated for quota surveys

Each wave the survey covers use of, and satisfaction with, local services. Beyond this, the topic coverage tends to change each wave, reflecting the Council's/its partners' current information needs, but some topics are repeated (see below).

Use of, and satisfaction with, sports and leisure centres

(These questions have appeared in all waves of the survey since its inception in 1999)

Level of physical activity at work, mode of travel to work, participation in gardening/DIY, participation in sport/other physical activities, sources of information on sport and physical activity available in the local area, extent to which household followed major sporting events in 2012 and were motivated to do more sport or physical activity as a result.
(These questions appeared in the 2013 wave of the survey and all but the last were taken from the Scottish Health Survey)

Formal and informal volunteering, sources of information on volunteering opportunities, personal benefits of volunteering, reasons for not volunteering.

(All these questions appeared in the autumn 2008 and the spring 2012 waves of the survey)

Use of, and satisfaction with, museums and galleries
(These questions have appeared in all waves of the survey since its inception in 1999)

Museums and galleries visited in the last 12 months, activities engaged in at museums and galleries, what would make respondent visits museums and galleries more often, reasons for not visiting museums and galleries, sources of information on museums and galleries

(These questions appeared in the autumn 2011 wave of the survey)

Who respondent visited a museum or gallery with, and the main reason for their visit

(These questions appeared in the spring 2013 wave of the survey)

Pride in Glasgow as a whole and in local areas, words/phrases that sum up Glasgow, advocacy of Glasgow to people from outside the city, ratings of Glasgow compared to other Scottish cities

(These questions appeared in the autumn 2012 wave of the survey)

Anticipated impact of Glasgow 2014 on a) Glasgow b) respondent's local area and c) respondent/their family; priorities for getting maximum benefit for the Games, awareness of improvements being made across the city for the Games, concerns about Glasgow hosting the Games
(These questions appeared in the autumn 2008, spring 2011 and autumn 2012 waves of the survey)

Gender, age, social class, income, ethnicity, disability, sexuality, length of residence in Glasgow, age of children in household

All previous reports are available on the Glasgow City Council website (see link below)

http://www.glasgow.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=3822

High applicability. This is a robust quota survey with the data comparing favourably with Scottish Household Survey data. With the exception of the GoWell survey, the GHS is the best available source of data at the Glasgow- and East End-level on key themes of interest. Opportunities to add new questions are also good. The sample size is large enough to allow subgroup analysis among most equalities groups, although pregnancy/maternity is not covered.

Medium applicability. The Glasgow sample size is small but the survey provides Scotland-wide coverage of physical activity among young people. It would possibly provide a useful comparison with Glasgow Schools' Survey. There is the possibility of adding additional questions in discussion with HBSC Scotland. The sample size is large enough to allow subgroup analysis by age and sex (no other equality characteristics are covered).

Limited applicability. The survey is very limited in terms of relevant questions but it would be possible to add questions. The sample size is large enough to conduct subgroup analysis by age and sex (no other equality characteristics are covered).

Local Community Planning Partnership areas

Adults in Glasgow - unclear what sampling frame was used.

Unclear - was conducted in tandem with the Glasgow Housing Association tenant satisfaction survey with a boost to make it "representative" of all households (GHA survey 4,500, CPP survey 6,934). The report claims the sample is representative at a ward level by tenure, age, gender, ethnicity and economic status. Probably quota.

In home face-to-face household survey

Response rates are not calculated for quota surveys

Housing, neighbourhood, cleansing, environment

Limited applicability. The sampling methodology for this survey is problematic: the Glasgow Housing Association Tenant Satisfaction Survey sample is taken as a basis and boosted to be representative of all households (4,500 tenants and 2,434 non-tenants). Even with weighting, it seems that this would introduce bias. However, the sample is large enough to allow analysis at the East End-level. It would also allow for analysis by some key equalities groups (including those living in social housing), although sexual orientation, disability and pregnancy/maternity are not covered.
