Abstract
This report presents a new analysis of panel attrition in Understanding Society. The analysis focuses on the General Population Sample (GPS) that started in 2009. The report analyses attrition for the GPS, the Ethnic Minority Boost (EMB), recruited in 2009, the Immigration and Ethnic Minority Boost (IEMB) that started in 2014, and the recently recruited General Population Sample 2 (GPS2). Furthermore, we compare the attrition at the second wave of the GPS2 to the one experienced by the GPS. This allows us to explore how attrition has affected the new sample after two waves in the study.
