2021 Swiss-German Adult Survey: Exploring Decision-Making, Social Norms, Hospitality, Gender Dynamics, Education, Wealth Distribution, and Social Attitudes

DOI

This project is a joint effort between different member of the social psychology lab at the university of Zurich. Three separate questionnaires have been prepared in 2020, 2021, 2022 as part of this project. Note that most modules/set of questions as well as participation differ based on the year of data collection. This documentation is for the year 2021. In 2021, we recruited a quota-sample of approximately 1'000 participants from the panel provider Bilendi. The sample is quasi-representative for the German speaking parts of Switzerland in their distributions of age, gender, and state of residence. Each lab member proposed a module of questions with –in some cases– an experimental design. The modules of questions include the following topics: 1. Decision-making (e.g., consumer behaviors and hotel/vacation preferences). 2. Social norms and punishment (e.g., in the context of personal hygiene/Food truck). 3. Hospitality and attitudes toward immigrants from different countries. 4. Job interviews and gender-related questions (e.g., desire to have children). 5. Social inequalities in class settings (e.g., resources available to students). 6. Wealth distribution between different groups (i.e., men and women; poor and rich people). 7. Attitudes and perceived norms toward sexual minorities (e.g., opinions and planned votes toward marriage equality and adoption). It also includes key demographic variables (e.g., nationality, age, gender, sexual orientation, children, canton of residence, income, level of education). Several sections contain an experimental design (see codebook). The material is available in German and (partially) in English. Robert Tobias and Simone Sebben deserve credit for doing the major share of work involved in programming of the survey, troubleshooting, and monitoring of the quotas. Léïla Eisner prepared the data for publication.
