Today I'm launching a survey to support research I'm doing with @MOPACLdn on when and why victims withdraw from the criminal justice system. If you reported to the police but then decided (or felt pushed) to drop out / disengage, have your voice heard 👇

@LNER shout out to the driver of the 19:08 from Grantham to Kings X who is on the intercom telling passengers how best to reach various stations after missing connections due to the disruption.

My “work big sister” - too young and too fun to be my “work mum”! The world is a darker place 💔

It is with great sadness that we share that our treasured colleague and friend, Kate Smith, passed away unexpectedly on 2 September 2023. Our deepest condolences go to her family and many friends.

So happy to see that the survey resesarch community recognizes the @gip_study effort to collect data early on during the #COVID19 pandemic as a positive #infrastructure example @ESRAsurvey #ESRA23! Thank you, @PeterLugtig !!

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

The future of survey practices? @PeterLugtig talks about the need for improved readiness in many areas: sampling, linkages, a move towards self-comp, wider areas such as ethics and other approvals, and staff and infrastructure considerations #ESRA23

[Lisa Calderwood @_DrLisaC]

Final session at #ESRA23: Nick Gilby from @IpsosUK highlights need for improved sampling frames & automated coding for occupational for future UK surveys. New @ESRC initiative https://t.co/Zer1i6CPFb will try to tackle this, and lots of other things to deliver step-change we need

The mode shift between 2019-22 for the German microcensus is huge (and COVID-driven). A massive reduction in CAPI (yellow) and introduction of web (dark green). However, still a persistent core using paper (pink) #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

Hey #ESRA23. The lightning strike map looks interesting… 😬

Gen V is a new birth cohort in Victoria, Australia. It’s aiming for complete coverage of Victoria, with c.150k babies eligible. Multiple data sources: a survey app, bio samples, data linkage. Here is what they have achieved to date! #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

Marialivia Bernardi & @sarah_knibbs are talking about a new 5-wave longitudinal study of babies in England born in 2021: Children of the 2020s. Wave 1 required strong comms to maximise response, and an app was utilised to collect data and engage families. 51% RR achieved #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

The UK’s #EarlyLifeCohort (co-directed by @_DrLisaC) will field test a large number of innovative data collections: developmental neuroscience measures, enhanced home environment assessments, and enhanced bio-measure collection. Hugely exciting in a cohort context! #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

The #EarlyLifeCohort feasibility study in the UK is taking an innovative approach to recruiting. @_DrLisaC explains that own-household parents (those living apart from their baby some/all of the time at recruitment at 9 months) will be recruited independently #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

Growing Up In Digital Europe (@GuideCohort): why do we need a Europe-wide longitudinal study of children? Europe has a fantastic array of youth cohorts (👇) but comparability/harmonisation is difficult! #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

GENERATION is an Australian cohort tracking young people transitioning from school. Ben Edwards talks about how to recruit and survey via schools. Wave 1 recruited c.25,000 students. Personalised reports post-survey to schools and young people were particularly valued #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

Growing Up In Digital Europe (GUIDE - @EuroCohort) has conducted a pre-pilot to inform questionnaire development. Cognitive interviewing with both children and parents has yielded a huge amount of learning (too much for me to summarise - see pics!) #ESRA23

[Peter Lugtig - now also on Bluesky @PeterLugtig]

Becky Hamlyn #esra23 on setting up new COSMO cohort in UK. 15 year olds are followed, cohort started in 2020-21, so Covid times. F2f recruitment was not possible.
Goal was for full hh interview, with data linkage consent. Challenging! 1/

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

A huge amount of work is going on in terms of participant engagement for the @CLScohorts #EarlyLifeCohort feasibility study. @AlyceRaybould discusses five projects, ranging from the use of admin data to study name and branding #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

Susan Morton talks about co-designing a digital platform with young people for the @GrowingUpinNZ cohort study, aimed at collecting multi-modal qualitative data to complement core data collection (but also to keep cohort members engaged over time) #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

Active participant engagement is the topic of @intifar2210’s talk - how to engage young people in the GENERATION study in Australia. Feedback from young cohort members suggests they want a voice and want to make an impact #ESRA23

[Emily Gilbert @DrEmilyGilbert]

Till Stefes looks at whether the presence of an external supervisor in classroom-based surveys has benefits for data quality. He finds external supervisors are good for interview duration - allowing students longer to complete the survey. Further research recommended #ESRA23
