FOOTNOTES
1 A small subset of questions, designed to establish the prevalence and frequency of participation in a range of cultural and physical activities were included in the main survey in 2007; the results are presented in this report ( Chapter 13).
2 In single years, results are provided in local authority groupings for the smaller local authorities. For larger local authorities annual results are presented.
3 The random school child may be the same as, or different from, the random child.
4 Adults who are household members but have been living away for the previous six months are excluded from the selection of the random adult. Children and students living away during term time are counted as household members but are excluded from the random adult and random school child selection.
5 Where the same person completes both parts one and two (i.e. they are both the household respondent and selected as the random adult) the CAPI (Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing) script does not repeat the questions common to both sections. This means that these respondents are not asked for the same information twice.
6 These are mainly vacant or derelict addresses or occasionally those without any private dwellings (such as businesses).
7 In households where there is only one adult, that person has 100% chance of selection for part two but where there is more than one adult, the probability of a particular person being selected is less. This has been taken into account in the weighting.

39 It should be noted that the SHS is not designed to provide reliable statistics on average earnings. Household income in the SHS is the income of the highest income householder and partner only, and so is not directly comparable to the Family Resources Survey ( FRS) - the official source of income data in the UK.

See http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2007/11/30090722/0 for further explanation, though note that the linked paper contains a baseline figure that is slightly different from the current report because it is calculated using data from just half of the sample in October 2007.

68 A small number of questions were asked of the random adult in the main SHS sample. The results from those questions are the subject of this chapter. As noted in Chapter 1, questions on culture and sport were also included in a separate, boost, module. Results from the culture and sport module will be reported at a later date, along with more detailed analysis of the culture and sport questions in the main SHS questionnaire.
