About this article

The Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW) is a face-to-face victimisation survey in which interviewers ask people resident in households in England and Wales about their experiences of a range of crimes. As part of a wider programme of social survey transformation, ONS commissioned Kantar Public to investigate the feasibility of collecting CSEW data via an online questionnaire, with a focus on the re-design of the key sections of the survey that are required to count and classify the incidents of crime experienced by respondents.

This report contains the findings from this study, including proposed online questionnaires, the results of cognitive and usability testing and recommendations for further research.
