The majority of the survey covered a mainland national random sample, but the survey also covered special subsamples; including one of teachers. Most sub-samples asked participants to keep two diaries, one on a work/school day and one on a weekend day, but some sub-samples only completed one diary on a random day. A subsample was asked to complete additional questions on intra-household decision-making (this is the sub-sample which only completed one diary).
