This is the fifth bulletin of findings from the Scottish Household Survey (SHS), a major survey of the Scottish population funded by the Scottish Executive. The aim of the SHS is to provide information on the characteristics, composition and behaviour of Scottish households and the adult population.
The survey covers a wide range of topics and by bringing this range of topics together in one survey, allows analysis of issues in ways that have not previously been possible in Scotland.
This bulletin focuses on the differences and similarities between men and women's experiences of living in Scotland. In particular it focuses on households, economic activity, transport, health, and community involvement.
The analysis in this bulletin is based on data collected from 21,966 households and 20,582 individuals during 1999 and the first six months of 2000.
Further methodological details of the survey and a note on definitions are given at the end of this bulletin.
