Coded Submissions and Publications (from the Project <i>"Opening the File Drawer: Assessing and Understanding Publication Bias in the Social, Economic, and Behavioral Sciences" </i>)
No full textThe project “Opening the File Drawer: Assessing and Understanding Publication Bias in the Social, Economic, and Behavioral Sciences” aims to assess the prevalence of publication bias and to identify its risk factors. Our interest lies in understanding the decision-making processes that lead researchers to selectively publish certain results, while others remain in the “file drawer.” Specifically, we examined successful study submissions by external researchers to two German probabilistic panels (the GESIS Panel and SOEP-IS), and analyzed discrepancies between, among other things, the research questions and hypotheses stated in the original study submissions and how they were presented in the subsequent publication(s). In a first step, we collected detailed information on the study submissions, the publications, and the authors. In a second step, we conducted an author survey among the submission authors. The present dataset contains the coding dataset – that is, all information extracted from the study submissions and the corresponding publications.
The following six files are published here:
– PubBias_Analysis dataset.dta (i.e., the final analysis dataset)

Schule macht stark: Wirksamkeit von trainingsf\uf6rmigen Schreibfl\ufcssigkeitskonzepten im Primarbereich
No full textDer Schwerpunkt der Studie „Wirksamkeit von trainingsförmigen Schreibflüssigkeitskonzepten im Primarbereich“ ist die Evaluation eines trainingsförmigen Konzepts zur Förderung der Schreibflüssigkeit bei ein- und mehrsprachigen Grundschüler:innen der dritten und vierten Klasse im Rahmen des Unterrichtsclusters Deutsch und Mathematik (Team Deutsch) der Bund-Länder-Initiative Schule macht stark (SchuMaS).
Der Studie lag ein quasi-experimentelles Design mit Prä-Post-Testung und einem Kontrollgruppenvergleich zugrunde, in dem die Entwicklung der Schreibflüssigkeit untersucht wurde. Die Intervention bestand aus einem 7–8-wöchigem Training mit routinierten Schreibflüssigkeitsübungen (15-20 Minuten täglich), die von qualifizierten Fachlehrkräften durchgeführt wurden. Die Schüler:innen der Experimentalklassen (N = 105) arbeiteten während dieser Zeit in einem hierfür konzipierten Trainingsheft. Die Lehrkräfte wurden zuvor im Rahmen einer Blended-Learning-Fortbildung, die vom Unterrichtscluster Deutsch und Mathematik angeboten wurde, qualifiziert, die Trainings eigenständig durchzuführen (insg. 14 Zeitstunden). Die Schüler:innen der Kontrollklassen (N = 46) und deren Lehrkräfte erhielten kein Training und arbeiteten während der Interventionsphase nach ihrem üblichen Plan.
Um die Wirksamkeit der durchgeführten Trainings zu bestimmen, wurden unmittelbar vor bzw. nach den Trainings Prä- und Posttests durch die beteiligten Wissenschaftler:innen durchgeführt. Hierfür wurden drei Tests eingesetzt, die unterschiedliche Dimensionen der Schreibflüssigkeit erfassen (Alphabet-Task, Wörter schreiben, Schreibaufgabe). Als Kontrollvariablen wurden zum ersten Messzeitpunkt über einen kurzen Fragebogen der Spracherwerbshintergrund und Angaben über Klassenwiederholungen der Schüler:innen erhoben; zusätzlich wurden das Sprachverständnis und die lexikalisch-grammatische Kompetenz über einen C-Test für die Jahrgangsstufen 3 und 4 erfasst.
Auf der Grundlage der erhobenen Daten sollte geprüft werden, ob sich die Schreibflüssigkeit von Schüler:innen im Primarbereich, die von fortgebildeten Fachlehrer:innen ein Schreibflüssigkeitstraining erhielten im Vergleich zu Schüler:innen, die kein vergleichbares Training erhielten, nachweislich verändert und welchen Einfluss dabei das Mehrsprachigkeitsprofil, das Sprachverständnis und die lexikalisch-grammatische Kompetenz der Schüler:innen haben.Der Schwerpunkt der Studie „Wirksamkeit von trainingsförmigen Schreibflüssigkeitskonzepten im Primarbereich“ ist die Evaluation eines trainingsförmigen Konzepts zur Förderung der Schreibflüssigkeit bei ein- und mehrsprachigen Grundschüler:innen der dritten und vierten Klasse im Rahmen des Unterrichtsclusters Deutsch und Mathematik (Team Deutsch) der Bund-Länder-Initiative Schule macht stark (SchuMaS).

PUSH*BACK*LASH European Gender Attitudes Harmonized Database (1981 \u2013 2022)
No full textThe PUSHBACKLASH European Gender Attitudes Harmonized Database (1981–2022) integrates data from four major European cross-national survey programmes: the European Values Study (EVS), the European Social Survey (ESS), the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP), and the Eurobarometer (EB). Covering more than four decades of public opinion data, the dataset provides harmonised indicators of gender-role attitudes, equality beliefs, democratic satisfaction, political engagement, and key sociodemographic variables across European societies.
The harmonisation process standardised coding, scale direction, and missing-value structures across 87 variables, offering both 4-point and 5-point versions of the main gender-attitude items. All source data derive from publicly available, probability-based surveys archived at GESIS and the official EVS and ESS data portals.The PUSHBACKLASH European Gender Attitudes Harmonized Database (1981–2022) integrates data from four major European cross-national survey programmes: the European Values Study (EVS), the European Social Survey (ESS), the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP), and the Eurobarometer (EB).

Understanding Non-compliance with Prevention Measures against COVID-19 Infections in Germany (U-Comply) - Full version
No full textThe U-COMPLY project is a 3-wave panel study funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) with the purpose to understand non-compliance to the COVID-19 regulations in Germany. The study was conducted by Bilendi & respondi. In the survey period from April to September 2022, the German population aged between 18 and 75 years was asked about their compliance patterns, their perception of norms and compliance by others in their social network in online interviews (CASI) with a focus on adherence to the COVID-19 regulations. In addition, the survey explored possible antecedents of such behavior (e.g., self-control, perceived susceptibility and severity of infection, expected sanctions in case of non-adherence, vaccination status, immunization status, self-reported knowledge about COVID-19, information frequency, risk-group membership, contact with vulnerable individuals, conspiracy beliefs, political orientation) and conducted several vignette survey experiments. The respondents were selected using a quota sample from an online access panel from Bilendi & respondi.Wave 1:

GLES Candidate Study 2025
No full textThe GLES Candidate Study 2025 covers five topics: political background and nomination, campaigning, political issues, democracy and representation, and personal characteristics and background. It also includes the core questionnaire from the Comparative Candidate Survey (CCS). Some questions are asked both in the Candidate Study and in the other GLES studies of eligible voters in order to enable comparisons between eligible voters and candidates. It also contains aggregate characteristics of the constituencies and federal states from official statistics and the election statistics of the Federal Returning Officer in order to take the socio-demographic context into account.The German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES) is the central infrastructure project in Germany for the continuous collection and provision of high-quality data for national and international election research. The methodologically diverse surveys of the GLES enable the research of political attitudes and behavior of eligible voters and candidates. Since its foundation, the GLES has been conducted in close cooperation between the German Society for Electoral Research (DGfW) and GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences.Die GLES Kandidierendenstudie 2025 umfasst fünf Themenblöcke: politischer Hintergrund und Nominierung, Wahlkampf, politische Themen, Demokratie und Repräsentation sowie Angaben zur Person. Sie enthält zudem den Kernfragebogen des Comparative Candidate Surveys (CCS). Einige Fragen werden sowohl in der Kandidierendenstudie als auch in den anderen GLES-Studienteilen der Wahlberechtigten gestellt, um so Vergleiche zwischen Wahlberechtigten und Kandidierenden zu ermöglichen. Zudem enthält sie Aggregat-Charakteristika der Wahlkreise und Bundesländer aus der amtlichen Statistik und der Wahlstatistik der Bundeswahlleitung, um den soziodemografischen Kontext einbeziehen zu können.Die German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES) ist das zentrale Infrastrukturprojekt in Deutschland für die kontinuierliche Erhebung und Bereitstellung von qualitativ hochwertigen Daten für die nationale und internationale Wahlforschung.

GESIS Panel.pop Population Sample \u2013 Standard Edition
No full textThe GESIS Panel provides a probability-based mixed-mode access panel infrastructure located at GESIS Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences in Mannheim, Germany. The project offers the social science community an opportunity to collect survey data from a representative sample of the German population. Submitted study proposals are evaluated based on a scientific review process.
Panel members were initially recruited in 2013 in face-to-face interviews followed by a self-administered profile survey. The mode was chosen by the participants. All participants of the profile survey are considered as members of the panel and invited to the bi-monthly regular waves. The starting cohort encompassed 4900 panelists at the beginning of 2014.
In order to compensate for panel attrition, a refreshment sample was drawn in 2016, using the General Social Survey (ALLBUS) interview as vehicle. The initial cohort encompasses German speaking respondents aged between 18 and 70 years (at the time of recruitment) and permanently residing in Germany, whereas the second cohort includes respondents from the age of 18 without upper restriction.
In 2018 a third recruitment sample was drawn, which was integrated with the wave ge. The third cohort also includes respondents aged 18 and over without an upper limit.
Retroactively, cases up to and including wave fc (third wave from 2018) were added to the data. The Data Manual (ZA5664-65_sd_data-manual) has been reissued and there is a corresponding recruitment report (ZA5664-65_mb_recruitment2018).
The ALLBUS Sample is based on a disproportional sampling of respondents from the western and eastern part of Germany. A design weight that enables integration of the two recruitment cohorts is included into the dataset.
For more details, please see the methods reports of the recruitment processes and die GESIS Panel reference paper (Bosnjak et al., 2017).
In March 2020, a special GESIS panel survey was conducted on the SARS-CoV-2 resp. COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak in Germany.
In 2021, the fourth recruitment sample was drawn using the German International Social Survey Programme (ISSP), which was integrated with wave ja. The fourth cohort also includes respondents aged 18 and older with no upper limit. For more information, see the corresponding recruitment report (ZA5664-65_r_i12.pdf).
In 2023, the fifth recruitment sample was drawn using the German European Social Survey (ESS Round 11), which was integrated with the wave la. The fifth cohort includes respondents aged 18 and over with no upper limit. For more information, see the corresponding recruitment report (ZA5664-65_r_k12.pdf).

SiE survey dataset on solidarity in Europe (2024)
No full textThe EUI-YouGov dataset on European solidarity is built on a large survey designed by the 'Solidarity in Europe' and the SOLID ERC research teams at the EUI, and implemented by YouGov. The data aims to empirically assess public opinion on the willingness to redistribute resources within the EU and to examine political attitudes that might explain these preferences. The survey design covers a number of issues, particularly concerning attitudes towards European solidarity; preferences for solidarity in the scope of different types of crises (including COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine); satisfaction and trust in national and European institutions; attitudes towards European integration, identity, value of democracy, world politics, security and defence, Russia, NATO and a European army; preferences concerning taxes and policy priorities; the relative salience of different issues and threats facing individuals, countries and the EU; political ideology, religion and voting preferences; as well as other individual attributes such as gender, age and occupation. The survey inquired 15.810 adults over 17 EU countries and the United Kingdom, from 2nd April to the 12th May 2024. YouGov implemented the survey online using a randomised panel sampling mechanism to ensure it is nationally representative concerning age, gender, social class, region, level of education, voting preference and level of political interest.The EUI-YouGov dataset on European solidarity is built on a large survey designed by the 'Solidarity in Europe' and the SOLID ERC research teams at the EUI, and implemented by YouGov.
