Wave 10: Datasets

The weighted Wave 10 dataset is now available on the UK Data Service and you can access it here.

The following Wave 10 datasets can be downloaded: 

  • W10 end user licence

  • W10 special licence

  • W10 secure access.

 

Documentation

The W10 general user guide and technical report are available to download from UKDS and they are also available on the ELSA website.

All data dictionaries have been updated too. A user guide specifically for the special licence and secure access datasets is currently being finalised. 

 

Wave 10: Tables

The Wave 10 tables are currently being copyedited and will be published on the ELSA website towards the end of November.

The tables are within the economic, social, and health domains and are cross-sectional and longitudinal, with data starting from Wave 4 of ELSA. They are classified by age, gender, and wealth.

Due to the fieldwork delays caused by Covid, users cannot assume the equal spacing of data collection waves. However, we do have interim observations from the Covid study, so analysts will need to go back and link up to the Covid data. Every dataset includes the variable with the month and the year of the interval for each participant.
