Scottish Household Survey Annual Report

6 For detailed information on survey design and sampling, users are referred to the most recent methodology and fieldwork outcomes report 14 for the 2018 SHS. The SHS response rate has declined from 67 per cent in 2014 to 63 per cent in 2019 (the achieved sample in 2019 was 10,577 household and 9,776 random adult interviews). Analysis carried out to date suggests that this has had minimal or little impact on the survey results. Further information on response rates and other such information will be available in the methodology and fieldwork outcomes report for SHS 2019 to be published shortly. 14 https://www.gov.scot/publications/scottish-household-survey-2018-methodology-fieldwork- outcomes
