Ten to Men: The Australian Longitudinal Study on Male Health, Release 4.0.1 (Updates to Waves 1-4)
No full textTen to Men: The Australian Longitudinal Study on Male Health was commissioned by the Department of Health and Aged Care following the 2010 National Male Health Policy, and currently serves the National Men’s Health Strategy 2020-2030. This is Australia’s first national longitudinal study that focuses exclusively on male health and wellbeing. The cohort was recruited using a stratified, multi-stage & cluster sampling design to select males aged 10–55 years. Recruitment of eligible participants and Wave 1 of the data collection occurred between October 2013 and July 2014, resulting in a reconciled sample size of 16,021. The survey content was structured around six key research domains relevant to male health: wellbeing and mental health, use of health services, health-related behaviours, health status, health knowledge and social determinants. Wave 2 of the data collection occurred between November 2015 and May 2016. The sample size for Wave 2 was 11,936. The Wave 2 questionnaires largely retained Wave 1 items to obtain repeat longitudinal measures. New items added included additional questions on relationships, mental health, health literacy, help-seeking and resilience. Release 2.1 comprised of updated Wave 1 and Wave 2 datasets. These datasets have undergone changes to previous releases, including the renaming of variables, confidentialisation and other modifications. Release 2.1 offers General Release and Restricted Release. Wave 3 of the data collection occurred between July 2020 and February 2021. The sample size for Wave 3 was 7,919. The Wave 3 questionnaires largely retained items from previous waves to obtain repeat longitudinal measures. New items added included new questions on gambling, use of e-cigarettes, illicit drug use, gender identity, generalised anxiety, relationship quality, individual income, COVID-19 impact and natural disaster impact. Release 3.0 offers General Release and Restricted Release and linked MBS and PBS datasets. Wave 4 of the data collection occurred between August 2022 and December 2022. The sample size for Wave 4 was 7,050. The Wave 4 questionnaires largely retained items from previous waves to obtain repeat longitudinal measures. New items added included new questions on health conditions, masculinity, fathering ethnicity, gender & sexuality, intimidate partner violence, and injuries. Release 4.0 offers General Release and Restricted Release and linked MBS and PBS datasets. Release 4.0.1 is the most recent data release and offers updates to all waves of the General Release and Restricted Release datasets as explained in Change Log Registry

The Australian Housing Conditions Dataset 2022
No full textHousing serves many purposes in our society. It provides space for raising families, for leisure and rest, and increasingly, our housing doubles as a workspace. Housing also impacts our mental and physical health due to factors such as cold, mould, poorly managed maintenance issues, unaffordability, and inequality.
Despite the centrality of housing in our everyday lives, we as researchers are yet to have a systematic understanding of Australian housing conditions and changes over time. Building on the earlier housing conditions projects in this series, including the Australian Housing Conditions Dataset (2016) and the Australian Rental Housing Conditions Dataset (2020), in 2022 we collected data on the housing conditions of 15,000 rental (including private and public) households and 7,500 homeowners, covering all Australian states and territories. Recognising the emerging importance of renting in Australia, the sampling was weighted to oversample rental households. This data infrastructure will provide the knowledge base for national and international research and allow better urban, economic and social policy development.
The project is funded by the Australian Research Council through the Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities (LIEF) grant program, in partnership with The University of Adelaide, the University of South Australia, the University of Melbourne, Swinburne University of Technology, Curtin University and Torrens University Australia and is led by Professor Emma Baker at the University of Adelaide.

GENERATION Survey: School Context, 2022
No full textGENERATION is a new study of young Australians to understand youth transitions from school to post school destinations, including a focus on how the COVID-19 pandemic may influence decisions and pathways. GENERATION tracks the interests, hopes and aspirations of young people.

The objective of the survey was to collect information about programs/interventions intended to enhance student career pathways, improve student outcomes, and understand how the pandemic impacted on the school and delivery of programs for the student cohort. In the 2024 release, school-level variables including SEFIA, ICSEA, and number of school/grade enrolements have been added. Further information about the equity programs in schools has also been added. School weights have also been included in this release
