Design and methods of the Second Australian Study of Health and Relationships

Grants

Funding Acknowledgements

This study was funded by the National Health and Medical Research Council (project grant 1002174). We are indebted to the staff of the Hunter Valley Research Foundation for undertaking the interviews and managing data collection, and to the Social Research Centre for producing weights for the data. We also thank the 21 139 Australians who took part in the two phases of the project and so freely shared the sometimes intimate aspects of their lives. Professor Anthony Smith died during the course of this project and we intend this work to be a tribute to, and further example of, the extraordinary contribution his work has made to the sexual health and wellbeing of Australians.
