Families, Social Capital and Citizenship Survey, 2001
Abstract
The Families, Social Capital and Citizenship project aims to examine levels of social capital associated with varying family circumstances, assess the importance of social capital in shaping patterns of family engagement with the economy, polity and community, and assess the relative importance of different elements of social capital (including trust, reciprocity and the size and structure of networks) to these outcomes.
Variables include: institutional ties; involvement with different community groups; the extensiveness of informal ties with family, friends and neighbours, levels of trust and reciprocity within these networks, the receipt or provision of emotional, practical and financial support within these networks, the use or provision of care for the elderly, the disabled or children; trust and confidence in different institutions; and feelings about ones neighbourhood.
Background variables include: age, gender and relationships of persons in the household; respondent country of birth and languages spoken; occupation, education, income and income sources; parent's education; and partners and friends education and occupation.
