European social survey round 3

Objective

The 3 aims of the European Social Survey are: to chart and explain changes in Europe's social, political and moral climate; to achieve and spread standards of rigour in cross-national attitude measurement never accomplished before; and to achieve recognition for social and attitudinal indicators on a par with those currently awarded to economic indicators. The first two rounds of this important time series were core-funded by the EC under FP5, and co-funded by the European Science Foundation and numerous national academic funding bodies throughout Europe. An academically-driven, uniquely rigorous survey, the ESS is documenting and helping to interpret hitherto inadequately-charted aspects of the European condition. The wide-ranging questionnaire covers people's value orientations, their cultural perspectives and the underlying social structure of their societies. A separate data collection exercise monitors major events during fieldwork as a backdrop to an understanding of attitude change.
