#ALLBUS #Kumulation 1980-2023 veröffentlicht Mit allen #Zeitreihen aus dem ALLBUS-Frageprogramm, d.h. Daten für alle Fragen, die in wenigstens zwei der bisher 23 ALLBUS-Umfragen erhoben wurden. Damit lässt sich bspw. der Abwärtstrend beim #Vertrauen in die #Kirchen ablesen: search.gesis.org/res...

Introducing the German General Social Survey Personas (GGSSP) – a #persona collection derived from the German General Social Survey (#GGSS #ALLBUS). This data release provides plug-and-play persona descriptions to steer the generations of LLMs towards individual members of the German population.

🚨 Interested in survey experiments? I'll be giving a virtual talk on (false) null results in experiments--and how to protect against them--at SWERP on 3/13 (3/12 8pm EST). Hope to see you there, and thanks to @sysilviakim.bsky.social for inviting me! Link to join: swerp.netlify.app

📢 Study out in Research & Politics! We (@lukasbirkenmai1.bsky.social @wurthmann.bsky.social @msaeltzer.bsky.social) find that directly elected MPs talk more about local & deprived places than list MPs on social media. 🔍 doi.org/10.1177/2053... Some Highlights [1/3]

🎉 I am excited and grateful to share that the second chapter of my dissertation is now forthcoming in the @thejop.bsky.social. it has been a long journey. Hours, thoughts, and re-assessments at each stage of the study, but it is finally here🥲 www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/... 1/9

📢 Finally it is out! Celebrating 40 years of ISSP and what exciting research can be done with this great data.

#survey #germany The English version of the #ALLBUS 2023 is now published. New in '23: attitudes towards #climate change Younger respondents are more likely to attribute climate change to human causes, whereas older ones tend to assume that natural processes and human causes have an equal influence.

🚨 Excited to see my first solo-authored paper now published in IJPOR! 🚨 Do election outcomes affect participation in post-election surveys? And specifically, do election winners respond more than losers? The short answer: not really. The slightly longer answer: 🧵👇 academic.oup.com/ijpor/articl...
