Signposting
This report is organised broadly in the order in which survey processes were completed: questionnaire design, sampling, fieldwork, response, weighting, data management.
Terminology
Those who respond to the survey are referred to as respondents. The reason for not using the conventional term participants is that, in the context of sports participation, participant has a different meaning.
When describing the development of the questionnaire using focus groups and cognitive interviews, those who took part are referred to as participants, since respondent is not a suitable term to use in the context of qualitative methods.
