Health Education Population Survey

This cross-sectional survey monitored health-related knowledge, attitudes, behaviour and behavioural motivations amongst adults (aged 16-74) in mainland Scotland.

The survey ran from 1996 to 2007. From 2008, the survey was replaced by the Knowledge, Attitudes and Motivations (KAM) module in the Scottish Government's Scottish Health Survey.

The Health Education Population Survey (HEPS) was commissioned and project managed by NHS Health Scotland and carried out by BMRB Social Research.

 It ran from 1996 to 2007 and is now replaced by the Knowledge, Attitudes and Motivations (KAM) module in the Scottish Health Survey, which began in 2008.

 The survey included questions on health-related knowledge, attitudes, motivation, behaviour and health status over a range of topics: attitudes towards own health, physical activity, diet, smoking, alcohol, mental health, oral health, drug use and sexual health.
