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).

University of Washington - Beyond High School (UW-BHS) (ICPSR 33321)
Released/updated on: 2016-02-15
Geographic coverage: United States, Washington
Time period: 2000-01-01--2010-01-01
The University of Washington - Beyond High School (UW-BHS) project surveyed students in Washington State to examine factors impacting educational attainment and the transition to adulthood among high school seniors. The project began in 1999 in an effort to assess the impact of I-200 (the referendum that ended Affirmative Action) on minority enrollment in higher education in Washington. The research objectives of the project were: (1) to describe and explain differences in the transition from high school to college by race and ethnicity, socioeconomic origins, and other characteristics, (2) to evaluate the impact of the Washington State Achievers Program, and (3) to explore the implications of multiple race and ethnic identities. Following a successful pilot survey in the spring of 2000, the project eventually included baseline and one-year follow-up surveys (conducted in 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005) of almost 10,000 high school seniors in five cohorts across several Washington school districts. The high school senior surveys included questions that explored students' educational aspirations and future career plans, as well as questions on family background, home life, perceptions of school and home environments, self-esteem, and participation in school related and non-school related activities. To supplement the 2000, 2002, and 2003 student surveys, parents of high school seniors were also queried to determine their expectations and aspirations for their child's education, as well as their own educational backgrounds and fields of employment. Parents were also asked to report any financial measures undertaken to prepare for their child's continued education, and whether the household received any form of financial assistance. In 2010, a ten-year follow-up with the 2000 senior cohort was conducted to assess educational, career, and familial outcomes. The ten year follow-up surveys collected information on educational attainment, early employment experiences, family and partnership, civic engagement, and health status. The baseline, parent, and follow-up surveys also collected detailed demographic information, including age, sex, ethnicity, language, religion, education level, employment, income, marital status, and parental status.
