Supplementary notes

Respondents were recruited in two ways. The survey was initially launched on 4th September 2019 at Ukie's annual Members' Day, with accompanying press coverage, publicity through social media, and so on, and ran for 6 weeks allowing anyone who worked in games to participate. To avoid the presence of biased estimates resulting from the recruitment of respondents exclusively through open channels, additional respondents were recruited through a representative sample of games organisations. Question: “What is your ethnic group?”
