SOEP-IS for new research questions: call for proposals for the 2023 survey

Researchers in Germany and abroad are invited to submit proposals for the next round of the SOEP Innovation Sample (SOEP-IS). For those not yet familiar with SOEP-IS, this unique random sample of German households (N = 2,800 households with about 4,000 respondents) offers great potential as a source of household micro-data, particularly for researchers seeking information that is not available in SOEP-Core—for ...

Ihre Forschungsfragen für die SOEP-Innovationsstichprobe (SOEP-IS) 2023 - Bewerben Sie sich jetzt

Das SOEP-Team möchte Sie auch in diesem Jahr auf die Möglichkeiten der SOEP-Innovations-Stichprobe (SOEP-IS) hinweisen und Sie ermuntern, dieses Instrument (repräsentative Stichprobe von etwa 2.800 deutschen Haushalte mit etwa 4.000 Interviewten) zu nutzen, um direkt zu Ihrer Forschungsfrage Mikrodaten auf Haushaltsebene erheben zu lassen. Wenn Sie als ForscherIn z.B. Informationen auf ...

Heteroskedastic Proxy Vector Autoregressions: Testing for Time-Varying Impulse Responses in the Presence of Multiple Proxies

We propose a test for time-varying impulse responses in heteroskedastic structural vector autoregressions that can be used when the shocks are identified by external proxy variables as a group. The test can be used even if the shocks are not identified individually. The asymptotic analysis is supported by small sample simulations which show good properties of the test. An investigation of the impact ...

Whether You Think You Can, or You Can’t - It’s True: Locus of Control in Status Reproduction

Die vorliegende Dissertation untersucht die Relevanz von Kontrollüberzeugungen in der intergenerationalen Transmission von sozialem Status. Motiviert ist die Arbeit von der Frage nach der Möglichkeit Chancengerechtigkeit durch die Verringerung herkunftsbedingter Unterschiede in Kontrollüberzeugungen zu erhöhen. Nach einer Einführung des zentralen Konstruktes werden im theoretischen Teil durch die Zusammenführung ...

Temporal Aggregation of Time Series to Identify Typical Hourly Electricity System States: A Systematic Assessment of Relevant Cluster Algorithms

Comprehensive numerical models are pivotal to analyze the decarbonization of electricity systems. However, increasing system complexity and limited computational resources impose restrictions to model-based analyses. One way to reduce computational burden is to use a minimum, yet representative, set of system states for model simulation. These states characterize fluctuating renewable generation and ...

Protecting the Ego: Motivated Information Selection and Updating

We investigate whether individuals self-select feedback that allows them to maintain their motivated beliefs. In our lab experiment, subjects can choose the information structure that gives them feedback regarding their rank in the IQ distribution (ego-relevant treatment) or regarding a random number (control). Although beliefs are incentivized, individuals are less likely to select the most informative ...

Linked Open Research Data for Social Science Pilot Study (LORDpilot)

The re-use of research data is an integral part of research practice in the social and economic sciences. To find relevant data, researchers need adequate search facilities. However, a comprehensive, thematic search for research data that is not limited to individual survey programs is difficult. Because individual survey programs use their own terminology to describe their data and the...
