Kids' Life and Times Survey - Results
View Results

On this web site we have produced tables of results for every question asked in the survey.
The questions are grouped together in 'modules', for example, School. You can link to the tables of results for a particular question by searching through any of the following:
- the list of modules
- the list of modules within a particular year
- the questionnaires
For each question you can find the exact wording of the question, frequency table, and results for boys and girls.
KLT is a freely available resource for anyone interested in public attitudes in Northern Ireland. There is no charge to use the statistics or data available on this website. However, we are always interested in how the findings are used, and so would be very grateful if you would let us know how you have used them. In particular, copies or links to reports or articles are very welcome. Our contact details are available in the Helpline section.
