Abstract
Overall we aim to continue to develop the SLS, extending its potential through the addition of new datasets, expanding its research user base by making the data more accessible and extending its coverage through a mechanism for UK level studies.
Our 7 objectives are to:
1. Enhance the SLS through linkages to new datasets including the 2011 census
The key focus of the first two years will be the linking of the 2011 census to the SLS. This work will be considerable.
We will however also:
- link the Scottish Mental Survey of 1947 to the SLS. This will produce a sample of n~ 3000-3500 and provide information on the age, social class of the cohort's parents, and after the 1980s detailed health and census based information.
- establish links, explore the validity and reliability of two main sources of child health surveillance data.
Beyond 2014 we will be discussing with:
- a number of data holders, the possibility of linking their data to the SLS during the period 2012-2014. This will include the holders of: further and higher education data, information on educational attainment in private schools, social security, dental and prescribing data.
- NRS whether it might be feasible to develop a system that would allow 'special' samples of 'SLSs' to be drawn from a 100% population spine producing bespoke 'SLSs'.
2. Support access and use of the SLS by researchers
The core work of the SLS is supporting researchers through the whole life cycle of an SLS research project from application, preparation and data analysis, to publication dissemination. We also organise web-based resources that will help make use of the SLS easier and provide training on the SLS and longitudinal data handling, analysis and modelling through a series of workshops and seminars.
3. Maintain the SLS and safe setting
We will continue with the core maintenance tasks of the study.
4. Engage and collaborate with other ESRC investments
We will work towards a greater integration of the LSes. We will actively support the UK Census Longitudinal Study Development Hub in particular providing significant research support for a project to create a synthetic dataset that can be made available to researchers more flexibly.
5. Promote the research potential of the SLS
We will continue to participate in national and international conferences promoting longitudinal analysis and the SLS. Our website is also an important vehicle not only for advertising the research potential of the SLS, but also for encouraging access to the resource and promoting the outputs and impacts that have already been achieved by researchers using the dataset.
6. Promote the impact of the SLS
The SLS already has a track record of directly promoting the impact of its research. Firstly we plan to conduct impact case-studies on a sample of SLS-based projects. We would also seek to continue to hold regular annual presentations and discussion workshops with key government departments. A third avenue of impact promotion planned is to approach professional private-sector bodies to discuss the types of issues directly relevant to their work which might be effectively explored using the SLS.
7. Conduct methodological development work
A disadvantage of the current access to SLS data is that users must either visit the safe setting in the SLS unit or submit code to be run by SLS staff. The idea of synthetic data is that simulated data are produced that do not correspond to any real individuals or organisations, but maintain the distributions and the relationships between the variables that exist in the original. This can therefore be used outside the safe setting. We aim to develop a method to produce safe synthetic versions of the SLS.
We will also test the validity, reliability and utility of any new data being introduced into the SLS.

Planned Impact
The value of longitudinal datasets has long been recognized, and the SLS was created in order to provide a high quality longitudinal research dataset that could be used to provide an insight into the demographic, health and social status of the Scottish population. Scotland had been disadvantaged relative to England and Wales in the poverty of its longitudinal databases (i.e. databases that link individuals' characteristics through time, allowing changing circumstances to be investigated) on demographic, socio-economic and health information. The SLS, fairly uniquely, allows important questions to be asked about the demographic, health and social status of the Scottish population.
This is important because Scotland differs considerably from the rest of Britain in a number of ways. For example, on average Scots live in more deprived circumstances, have lower fertility rates, higher teenage fertility rates, and are more likely to live in public housing than people living in England and Wales. In addition, overall mortality rates are higher than the rest of Britain, even when we control for age distribution and the relatively more deprived circumstances in Scotland (commonly described as the 'Scottish Effect'), and deaths from specific causes such as lung cancer and heart disease rank among the worst in Europe. Indeed, lung cancer rates for Scottish women are among the highest in the world. Thus, Scotland provides a unique demographic, socio-economic and health context within the UK, and there has been a lack of research on a number of important topics. These are all issues that can be explored using the SLS and they become especially interesting as social and health policies continue to diverge between Scotland and the rest of the UK as a result of devolution.
Because of its unique composition and the large proportion of the population it represents (5.3% of the Scottish population as compared to 1% in the England and Wales LS), the SLS provides benefits to academics from a wide range of academic disciplines, including geographers, health researchers, social scientists, economists and labour market analysts to name a few (see 'Academic Beneficiaries' above). This impact reaches beyond Scottish academics, with researchers from other UK and European countries already having used the SLS for their projects. Outputs and publications from SLS-based projects are published and presented widely in international journals and at international conferences.
In addition to this academic impact, the SLS has been also been used to examine a wide range of research questions feeding into government social, health and housing policy. This has included reports and studies conducted on behalf of the Scottish Government, Chief Scientist Office, Scottish Collaboration for Public Health Research and Policy, and Glasgow Centre for Population Health. Additionally, presentations from other SLS-based studies have been given at Scottish Government events, and several discussion papers have been published by the IZA Institute for the Study of Labor. Researchers from the department of Employability, Skills and Lifelong Learning, ISD and the NHS are also currently involved in policy-based research projects utilizing the strengths of the SLS.

| Description | The Scottish Longitudinal Study (SLS) is a pioneering study, combining census, civil registration, health and education data (administrative data). It has established an approach that allows the legal and ethical use of personal, sensitive information by maintaining anonymity within the data system. This approach has become a model for the national data linkage systems that are now being established across the UK. The SLS has also enabled policy analysts to monitor key characteristics of the Scottish population in particular health inequalities (alerting policy makers to Scotland's poor position within Europe), migration (aiding economic planning) and changing tenure patterns (informing house building decisions). Finally, the study has become fully embedded in Scotland's National Statistical agency, allowing it to produce new informative statistical series. There have been 5 main areas of research . 1. Legal, ethical and governance research The SLS is founded on the linking of personal data for which consent cannot be practically sought between individuals. This creates a circular problem where the data used has to remain anonymous, to comply with data protection legislation, while in order to link the datasets, names and addresses have to be used. Legal and governance research (2001-2004) revealed a method based on 'firewalls' and 'Trusted Third Party' mechanisms (where the linkage is carried out by an organisation geographically separate from that managing the research dataset, this means that the research organization does not need to hold names and addresses greatly reducing the risk of disclosure) that allow linkage while also maintaining anonymity. 2. Sample design and data development Research was carried out into suitable sampling strategies that would ensure that the sampling of birthdates across the year did not produce seasons of the year with no coverage. Considerable work was involved (2001-2004) in processing the census forms in particular, retrospectively coding the 90% of 'difficult to code' census information (e.g. occupation) that were not available electronically. Automatic systems for coding these were developed to allow cost-effective processing. 3. Linking methodology None of the datasets that were to be linked for individuals (to produce the breadth and length of record for individuals) could be simply matched. Instead a method had to be developed that would use information such as address and date of birth to find the appropriate record for an individual (2001-2004). This method had to be sensitive to misspellings and changes to this information (i.e. people moving). We therefore developed a complex system of probabilistic and manual matching stages, all of which were implemented through a process that limited the amount of information any one organization had, to reduce the risk of information disclosure. This process was very successful, leading to final tracing and matching rates of >98%. 4. Research demonstrating the utility of a census-administrative data based longitudinal study In order for the large investment in the setting up and running of the SLS to be made, a continuing case for the utility of such a study had to be established. Research therefore into gaps into the Scottish policy evidence base, the utility of administrative data-based research and a potential SLS methodology was undertaken and fed into the case for support for the study took place 2007 onwards after the data became available for analysis. This led to the initial investment in the SLS by multiple funders. 5. Estimating new variables in the data The SLS is based on census and administrative data with variables limited to those collected in these systems. Research has therefore led to the estimation of 'synthetic measures', using a number of modeling methods, of variables of research importance 2011-13. This has included estimates of smoking propensity and income. Thus, a complex system has been put in place which allows anonymous individual-level data drawn from a range of different sources to be linked and held in the SLS. |
| Exploitation Route | The governance structure, linkage methodology and estimation methods, developed by the SLS team, have been used by the Scottish Government, National government and research councils as a model for newly emerging research infrastructures. The research findings of external researchers using the SLS have been taken forward in wide variety of different ways. |

| Description | The Scottish Longitudinal Study (SLS) has had impact in a number of significant areas in Scotland but also more widely across the UK: 1. It has changed National Records of Scotland's (NRS) statistical infrastructure - allowing new statistical series to be produced 2. It is used by local, national government and NHS officials for policy analysis, impacting local and national policy decision making 3. The study has trained over 100 researchers in longitudinal data analysis using administrative data 4. The SLS data system has become a model for the newly emerging UK national administrative data infrastructure Changed National Records of Scotland's statistical infrastructure. The SLS has been accepted as a Scottish National study and as such it is now co-supported and housed within the National Records of Scotland (NRS) - the National Statistical Agency since 2004. As a longitudinal study it replaces the need for expensive traditional longitudinal surveys collected through face-to-face questionnaires (often costing up to £10 million). The recognition of the study by the Scottish equivalent of the Office of National Statistics as being part of the National statistical system is testament to the quality and reliability of the study. The SLS has changed the type of statistical series that NRS are producing. For example the General Registrars' report (2010), on new demographic findings, makes extensive use of the SLS. (Since 1855 - the General Registrars' report is annually laid before Parliament as the major statement on Scotland's population). NRS have used it to ask important questions about the nature of occupational coding (and therefore social class) on death certificates (a key statistic for government), investigating the potential exaggeration of someone's occupation status at death. Impacted local and national policy decision making. Since its creation, the SLS has also been used by analysts outside the academy to examine a wide range of research questions feeding into government social, health and housing policy. This has included, for example, reports and studies conducted on behalf of the Scottish Government, Scottish Public Health Observatory and the NHS. To give two examples. Researchers in Glasgow City Council used it to investigate local patterns of housing tenure change and in particular the slowing of the fall in demand for social housing. These findings were incorporated into a demographic model of tenure change, which then fed into the research base for a number of key strategic policy documents including the Glasgow and the Clyde Valley Housing Needs and Demand Assessment, Glasgow and the Clyde Valley Strategic Development Plan, and Glasgow's Housing Strategy. A researcher working within Scottish Government working on 'return migration' work form key evidence for the Scottish Government report, 'Characteristics and intentions of immigrants to and emigrants from Scotland - Review of existing evidence' (Eirich, 2011), this in turn was discussed by Skills Development Scotland, Migrants' Rights Network, National Coalition of Anti-Deportation Campaigns and the Information Centre about Asylum and Refugees. It was also referenced in the UK Needs Analysis Report of the EU Portfolio of Integration projects. Training researchers. In addition to the impacts of managing for government a major data base, and producing research that impacts policy in the areas of health, education and employment, a third impact has been in training people in longitudinal data analysis and in supporting non-academic research use of the SLS. St Andrews researchers have been pro-active in organising training for those outside the academy wishing to access the SLS. Since 2008, 14 training events have been organised by the SLS team in Edinburgh, Belfast, Glasgow, London, Stirling, and St Andrews. In total 125 non-academic users have been trained including 4 people from local authorities, 6 from health boards, 110 from various sectors of the Scottish Government, 5 from Charities or private consulting firms. Given the relatively small community of quantitative social scientists in Scotland, this represents a good proportion of potential users. As a result of this training, 9 longitudinal research projects have been launched by non-academics in the fields of health inequalities, migration and employment. Model for the newly emerging UK national administrative data infrastructure. The SLS has become a path-breaking model that allows the linkage, holding, and analysis of highly personal data within appropriately strict legal and ethical constraints. For example, the Scottish Government use it as an exemplar of good practice in their development of national Data Sharing and Linkage Service, "The SLS has been of absolute fundamental importance to the development of the new National Data Sharing and Linking Service". The SLS has become a very important model for other parts of the UK that are seeking to produce similar studies. The Administrative Data Taskforce (ADT) (making recommendations to David Willets, the Minister of State for Universities and Science, and BIS over the future of UK wide research infrastructure) has used the design of the SLS as a model for future UK-wide research centres). The ADT argued that future "ADRC [Administrative Data Research Centres] could build on best practice from the experience of the . Scottish Longitudinal Study (SLS)" (p.5) and have a "data linkage process ... similar to that used by the Scottish Longitudinal Study (SLS), where personal identifying information is not held in the ADRC, but is matched through a third party service, such as the National Health Service Central Register" (p.6). |

| PI Contribution | The SLS involves: creating, maintaining, extending, supporting, promoting and utilising the SLS data - which is a large-scale linkage study created using data from administrative and statistical sources. These include: census data from 1991 onwards; vital events data (births, deaths, marriages); NHS Central Register data (gives information on migration into or out of Scotland); and education data (including Schools Census and SQA data). For this to happen, National Records of Scotland (as the data controller for census records) needs to a be an active partner. Over 10 years the SLS team has worked with NRS to build a use case for a linked census study within NRS and then jointly developing and then operationalising a methodology for such a study. |

| Title | Synthpop: Generating synthetic versions of sensitive microdata for statistical disclosure control |
| Description | --- A tool for producing synthetic versions of microdata containing confidential information so that they are safe to be released to users for exploratory analysis. The key objective of generating synthetic data is to replace sensitive original values with synthetic ones causing minimal distortion of the statistical information contained in the data set. Variables, which can be categorical or continuous, are synthesised one-by-one using sequential modelling. Replacements are generated by drawing from conditional distributions fitted to the original data using parametric or classification and regression trees models. Data are synthesised via the function syn() which can be largely automated, if default settings are used, or with methods defined by the user. Optional parameters can be used to influence the disclosure risk and the analytical quality of the synthesised data. |

| Impact | The synthpop package for R facilitates greatly generating non-disclosive entirely synthetic versions of sensitive restricted access microdata (e.g. the UK Longitudinal Studies) that can then be made more freely available for explanatory research and training. This can increase usage and impact of the unique and valuable resources. |
