2022 wave: interviews were conducted between September 23 and November 9, 2022
2021 wave: interviews were conducted between October 16 and December 13, 2021
2020/21 wave: interviews were conducted between October 6, 2020 and January 23, 2021.

2021 methodology: interviewing conducted using a mix of post-to-online and online panels. Paper questionnaires could also be requested by postal respondents and were returned by post. Any break column with a base size lower than 100 has been removed as margins of error become too great. Data is tested at the 99% confidence level.

Original survey question: Do you ever play games at home or elsewhere in any of these ways? (MULTI CODE) On a laptop or netbook // On a desktop computer (one that is usually in a fixed place with a separate screen and keyboard)
