About

This research group builds on a long tradition of work in design and analysis of surveys at Southampton, covering all the stages from specification and sampling, through consent and data collection, to processing (imputation, outlier detection and weighting) and modelling.

The group has strong links to official statistics in the UK and abroad, and has worked with the Office for National Statistics on methodology topics since 1995. It also has a wider role in survey methodology through organisation of networks and training delivery through the National Centre for Research Methods.
