DateSubjectDescription
2012-4-26Wrong labeling d171dLabeling mistake of variable d171d in the English version. Instead of the Green party’s position on nuclear energy (Parteiposition zu Atomenergie der GRÜNEN) it was labeled as the Republikaner’s position on nuclear energy (Parteiposition zu Atomenergie der REPUBLIKANER).
2012-4-26Wildcodes e81cThere are two wildcodes in the English version of variable e81c. 1011 stands for “criticism towards the income of managers” ("Kritik an Gehältern/Abfindungen von Managern") and 1012 stands for "bankers to be the cause of the financial crises" ("Banker als Verursacher der Wirtschafts- und Finanzkrise").

  •  German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES)
     The German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES) is a DFG-funded project which made its debut just prior to the 2009 federal election. GLES is the largest and most ambitious election study held so far in Germany. Although the initial mandate is to examine and analyse the electorate for three consecutive elections, the aspired goal is to integrate the project within GESIS as an institutionalized election study after the federal election of 2017, and hence to make it a permanent study.
