Austrian Student Social Survey 2023 (SUF edition)
No full textFull edition for scientific use. The aim of the Student Social Survey 2023 is to collect data on study and living conditions of students in Austria. The survey, which has been conducted at regular intervals since 1973, provides an important basis for the design of higher education policy measures. Most of the information collected via the social survey is not otherwise available. The range of topics covered by the Student Social Survey is very broad. It is intended to be able to provide an overview of the social situation of different groups of students, such as first-year students, students in bachelor's/master's or diploma programs, doctoral students, working students, students with children, older students and foreign students

Studies and School (SUF edition)
No full textFull edition for scientific use. The education system in Austria (as well as several other education systems in other countries) is facing challenges due to a significant shortage of teachers. Opinions about the reasons for this shortage as well as what measures should be taken are diverse. In the project "Studium & Schule", we decided to examine the various characteristics, traits, and differences among Austrian students who are preparing to become (or already working as) teachers in schools.
The study was divided into a quantitative and a qualitative part. We used a comprehensive questionnaire for students, with and without study-related teaching activities, to collect data from 1643 prospective teachers at several universities and university colleges for teacher training in Austria. The quantitative part of the questionnaire focused on relevant topics and scales such as theory-practice gap, well-being, employment issues in schools collecting multilayered information regarding professional life and learning process of future teachers. For those who teach already, we introduced questions on the workload and support in schools, self-image as a prospective teacher, self-efficacy, main issues with the job, etc. The qualitative part aimed at investigating how student teachers make decisions about their future career as a teacher, conditional factors for early career entry, employment and its effects on their studies

RI:TRAIN Plus Quantitative Survey 2021 (OA edition)
No full textReduced open access edition. Research Infrastructures (RIs) and their services are an essential element in creating the potential for scientific progress in the European Union, but also beyond. Together with Core Facilities (CFs) - which exist in many universities and scientific research centers - RIs are a basic prerequisite for excellence in science, for the establishment of Open Science as well as Open Innovation strategies and an important factor for the development of initiatives, practices, common facilities, guidelines and standards. This requires highly skilled personnel. But what competencies and skills are now needed in detail to run RIs and CFs? What challenges must be overcome in the process? AUSSDA researchers are addressing these questions as part of the RI:TRAIN plus project in the form of an online survey (2021)
