Now that summer is nearly over, we thought it would be a good time to let
you know what SRA Scotland has in store for the rest of 2013!
** Free Evening Seminar - 11 September - Designing and Developing a
Questionnaire for Children **
Come and join us for what promises to be a really interesting seminar, led
by Judith Mabelis at Scotcen, who works on the Growing up in Scotland study
(GUS). GUS is a longitudinal study birth cohort study following the lives
of 10,000 children in Scotland. In this free SRA Scotland seminar, Judith
will give an overview of the design and development of a questionnaire in
Audio-Computer Assisted Self-Interview (A-CASI) format with children aged 8
years old in GUS. There will be an opportunity for discussion and
networking over refreshments after the seminar and we'd love to see you
here!
