Abstract
"The 1991 census contained, for the first time, a question on the ethnic group of each member of the population of Great Britain. This paper reports on how a question was developed which has a sufficiently high degree of acceptance from all the main ethnic groups, and which is answered sufficiently accurately, to justify inclusion in the census." excerptKeywords: Census; Census Methods; Cultural Background; Data Collection; Demographic Factors; Developed Countries; Error Sources; Ethnic Groups; Europe; Measurement; Northern Europe; Population; Population Characteristics; Population Statistics; Questionnaire Design; Research Methodology; Sampling Studies; Studies; Survey Methodology; Surveys; United Kingdom
