WELFAREPRIORITIES - Priorities, trade-offs and reform opportunities in European welfare politics

For all surveys, the population of interest is the adult population living in the country. The unit of observation is the individual survey respondent.

Participants were drawn from Bilendi's (or its partners') panels. Random sampling was used within these panels. In addition, quotas for age and gender (crossed) as well as educational attainment ensure that the data are representative in terms of these characteristics.

In rounds two (2020) and three (2021) of our survey, respondents from the first wave (2018/19) who were still part of the Bilendi panel were recontacted to participate in the survey. The data therefore have a panel component. In both rounds two and three, new respondents were then added to the sample to again meet the quotas for basic socio-structural factors, ensuring that the individual rounds can be used for cross-sectional analyses.
