SoSe 24: Social Structures and Inequalities in Comparative Perspective: Using Data Infrastructures of Comparative Empirical Social Research
Dr. Carina Cornesse
Comments
high-quality research data. There are several survey programs that can be used to investigate pressing social issues within and across countries. This includes established infrastructures such as the European Social Survey (ESS), European Value Survey (EVS), International Social Survey Program (ISSP), and World Value Survey (WVS). These survey programs are not only characterized by the fact that they enable researchers to trace social change over time, but they also make it possible to do this from a comparative perspective. The aims of this seminar are to (1) introduce the most commonly used datasets for empirical cross-national social research and (2) to practice using them to answer social scientific research questions. This will provide course participants with essential competencies in effectively utilizing prominent survey programs within the social sciences. The seminar encompasses practical sessions dedicated to data exploration and analysis, during which participants will engage in hands-on exercises using STATA as a statistical software (or alternatively, R, if preferred). These sessions will give students the opportunity to formulate and test their own hypotheses. close
