| notes | This applies to a person who has ticked one or more of the UK national identity responses (English, Welsh, Scottish, Northern Irish and British) and has not also given a non-British response. A person's national identity is a self-determined assessment of their own identity with respect to the country or countries with which they fell an affilialition. This assessment of identity is not dependent on legal nationality or ethnic group.
The national identity question included six tick box responses - one for each of the four parts of the UK (English, Welsh, Scottish, Northern Irish), one for British, and one for 'Other'. Where a person ticked 'Other' they were asked to write in the name of the country. People were asked to tick all options that they felt applied to them. This means that in results relating to national identity, people may be classified with a single national identity or a combination of identities.
