Module: Attitudes towards Minority Ethnic People

This page lists the questions asked within the Attitudes to Minority Ethnic People module, and for which years. Clicking on the year printed after every question will bring you to the results for that year. Publications and further information on Attitudes towards Minority Ethnic People can be found on the Attitudes towards Minority Ethnic People page.

Unfortunately, the Northern Ireland Life and Times Survey did not run in 2011, as we were unable to confirm the full package of funding required in time to allow fieldwork to take place.
