In this article we first discuss the background to the ESRC Review of Government Social Classifications and the recommendations of the Review Committee's initial report to the Office for National Statistics in 1995. Second, we discuss the work of Phase 2 of the review, including the derivation of an interim version of a proposed revised government social classification schema and the criterion and construct validation work so far undertaken using this schema. Finally, we indicate the further work required to establish the schema in its ultimate recommended form for use by ONS and others. The main purpose of the paper is to introduce users of government social classifications both to the ideas underlying the review and to the revised version of the current classifications which we shall be recommending to ONS.
在本文中，我们首先讨论经济与社会研究委员会（ESRC）对政府社会分类进行审查的背景，以及审查委员会于1995年向国家统计局提交的初始报告中的建议。其次，我们讨论审查第二阶段的工作，包括拟议修订的政府社会分类架构临时版本的推导，以及迄今使用该架构开展的标准和结构效度验证工作。最后，我们指出为使该架构以最终推荐形式确立供国家统计局及其他机构使用所需开展的进一步工作。本文的主要目的是向政府社会分类的用户介绍审查背后的理念，以及我们将推荐给国家统计局的现行分类的修订版本。
