Our studies
If you use any of our study data in your analyses, you should clearly cite this. To cite the CLS cohort data available at the UK Data Service, please use the citation text that appears on the UK Data Service page of each of our four cohort studies:
This UK Data Service citation tool is designed to make citing data easy and straightforward. You will find it on every catalogue record page.
You should also acknowledge CLS in any published work using data from the one of our cohort studies. An example of an appropriate acknowledgement would be:
“I am grateful to the Centre for Longitudinal Studies (CLS), UCL Social Research Institute, for the use of these data and to the UK Data Service for making them available. However, neither CLS nor the UK Data Service bear any responsibility for the analysis or interpretation of these data.”
Find the latest developments and insights from across all our longitudinal studies.
The CLS Bibliography is a searchable database of published work based on our cohort studies. Search by keyword, author, date range and journal.
Data from our studies are mainly available through the UK Data Service. We run training to support researchers who are interested in using our studies in their work.
