Data Package Description
The Social Survey is a series of surveys on the economic and social situation of students in Germany that has been in existence since 1951. Every three to four years, a cross-section of students is surveyed on aspects of access to higher education, structural features of study, social and economic situation, including income and cost of living, employment, housing situation, as well as socio-demographic characteristics, partnership status and parenthood. The data package includes data from the 13th Social Survey (1991), which included students in the new Länder for the first time. An additional questionnaire included questions on the situation of students with children.
