This complex survey was carried out in 1999 by the Joint Health Surveys Unit of the National Centre for Social Research (NatCen) and University College, London. The survey focused on five principal ethnic minority groups: Bangladeshi, Black Caribbean, Indian, Irish and Pakistani. It aimed to estimate the prevalence of psychiatric morbidity among and between these groups resident in England. It also involved a qualitative element which sought to investigate ethnic and cultural differences in the meaning and experience of mental distress. A total of 4281 adults between the ages of 16 and 74 were interviewed. To download the data visit:
