Analysing mixed-mode effects of computer assisted telephone and personal interviews: A case study based on survey data from the international social survey programme module on environment
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, surveys often could not be conducted in originally planned face-to-face mode, and switched to online modes or used different mixed-mode designs. A combination of CATI and CAPI was used for the Austrian ISSP survey on Environment 2020/2021 (N=1.261), which in the past had always been conducted face-to-face. Mixed-mode surveys facilitate field access in pandemic times and show potential to reduce non-response and cover…

Pandemie und Wertewandel: Verschiebungen von Wertprioritäten in der österreichischen Bevölkerung und in einzelnen Wähler*innenschichten als Reaktion auf die Covid-19-Pandemie
Soziologische Zeitdiagnosen suggerieren, dass tiefgreifende gesellschaftliche Krisen wie die COVID-19-Pandemie unsere Wertorientierungen infrage stellen und auch relativ kurzfristig ändern könn(t)en. Von dieser Beobachtung ausgehend, wird untersucht, ob es in Österreich im Zeitraum Mai 2020 bis März/April 2021 zu signifikanten Verschiebungen von Wertprioritäten nach der Skala von Shalom Schwartz kam. Als Datenmaterial dienen die beiden ersten Wel…
Intergenerationenbeziehungen im bäuerlichen Milieu zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts
Trotz des Strukturwandels in der Landwirtschaft hat sich die bäuerliche Lebensform der Mehrgenerationenfamilie in Österreich weitgehend erhalten. Allerdings stellt sich die Frage, wie sich diese Lebensform zu den tiefgreifenden Individualisierungstendenzen, die moderne Gesellschaften durchziehen, verhält. Anhand von 30 Interviews und einer österreichweiten Umfrage unter 269 Betriebsleiterinnen und -leitern untersucht der vorliegende Artikel, wie …
An enquiry into the importance of the perceived positional, moral and emotional recognition for social integration in Austria
Considering the social disintegration approach of Wilhelm Heitmeyer and colleagues, this contribution explores three different dimensions of perceived recognition—positional, moral, and emotional recognition—among the Austrian population. The main purpose is to identify social groups that do not feel recognized and thus could be affected by social disintegration. The analysis is based on data from the Austrian Social Survey (SSÖ), a random 2018 s…

Patterns of Trust and Subjective Well-Being Across Europe: New Insights from Repeated Cross-Sectional Analyses Based on the European Social Survey 2002–2016
This paper offers elaborate analyses regarding the effects of social- as well as institutional trust as parts of social capital on subjective well-being (SWB) by using data from the European Social Survey, including 36 countries and eight time-points between 2002 and 2016. We analyze (1) The development of trust and SWB on the aggregate level; (2) The effect of trust on SWB on the individual cross-sectional level; and (3) The longitudinal and cro…
Cross-Country Variation in People’s Attitudes toward Citizens’ Rights and Obligations: A Descriptive Overview Based on Data from the ISSP Citizenship Module 2014
In a world of increasing democratization and global migration, questions of the access to citizenship as well as of citizens’ political, civil, and social rights and obligations play a decisive role. Whereas citizens in many countries do not make use of their democratic rights, noncitizens in many cases strive to become full members of society. The current International Social Survey Programme module on citizenship picks up diverse attitudes towa…
Patterns of Social Ties, Trust, and Participation after the Fall of the Iron Curtain: New Findings from Central and Southeast European Countries
Twenty-five years after the fall of the Iron Curtain, more than forty scholars from Central and Southeast Europe (CSE) came together at the University of Graz in Austria to take stock of the social changes that have been going on since 1989/90. The conference in 2014 was the starting point of this issue of the International Journal of Sociology, which covers a wide range of topics: patterns of social networks, social and institutional trust and p…
Functional equivalence and validity of religiousness indicators in cross-cultural comparative surveys
Cross-cultural comparative surveys have become an important tool to investigate social attitudes across different countries. However, this methodology is confronted with a number of challenges. One of the core problems is the functional equivalence of the concepts and indicators used. In this article, we study this problem in regard to the investigation of religiousness in three prominent surveys, the World Value Survey, the International Social …

Ethnic Stratification and Economic Inequality around the World: The End of Exploitation and Exclusion
The modern world is characterised by pervasive economic inequalities. Strong economic growth in some developing countries has contributed to a degree to a reduction in the levels of inequality between nations, yet inequality within nations remains high and in some cases, continues to increase. Ethnic Stratification and Economic Inequality around the World investigates the reasons for these striking differences, exploring the coincidence and inter…
Ethnic Stratification and Patterns of Income Inequality Around the World: A Cross-National Comparison of 123 Countries, Based on a New Index of Historic Ethnic Exploitation
Methodological Problems of Quantitative Comparative Social Research
The comparison between different countries and cultures constitutes the most important methodological tool of sociology and the social sciences. With the establishment of regular worldwide social surveys in the 1980s, international comparative research has accomplished a fundamental empirical and methodological breakthrough. The easy accessibility of these international comparative survey data and packages of statistical data analysis, however, m…
