Polish General Social Survey, 1992-1994 (ICPSR 6155)
Released/updated on: 2006-03-30
Geographic coverage: Poland, Global
Time period: 1992-01-01--1994-01-01
Conducted annually since 1992 by the Institute for Social
Studies at the University of Warsaw, the Polish General Social Survey
(PGSS) is designed to measure opinions and social characteristics of
Polish society. The content of the survey changes somewhat from year to
year, but core questions and the order in which they are asked have
been kept intact, thus enabling comparative analyses across time. Some
core PGSS questions replicate questions asked in the General Social
Surveys of the United States and Germany. PGSS core variables include
socioeconomic and demographic variables with an emphasis on
stratification measures (occupation, labor force status, education,
income) of respondents and their spouses and parents. In addition,
there are attitudinal variables concerning political opinions and
ideology, national spending, religious beliefs, social inequality, job
and occupational values, tolerance, educational values, attitudes
toward other countries, traditional sex roles, family issues, abortion,
and homosexuality. Other variables gauge subjective well-being, social
class identification, satisfaction with different spheres of life, and
confidence in different public institutions. Respondents were also
queried about their voting behavior, social interactions, religiosity,
health, smoking, and drinking. Each year, additional topical modules of
questions from the International Social Survey Program have been added:
"Inequality II" (1992), "Environment" (1993), and "Family and
Changing Gender Roles II" and "Sexual Behavior" (1994).
