Microcensus 2001, 4. quarter: Holiday Trips (SUF edition)

Full edition for scientific use. Microcensus surveys on the holiday habits of the Austrian population have been conducted every three years since 1969. The main focus of these surveys is to compare the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the tourists (age, sex, social situation, etc.) with the characteristics of the holiday (travel destination, accommodation, etc.). The survey catalogue, fixed by the OECD, has changed only slightly over the years. It was adapted to the European guideline for tourism statistics and is now conducted annually in December, starting with the year 1996. The questions are mostly concerned with the Austrian's main holidays (a vacation with at minimum number of 4 overnight stays outside the residential area, according to international agreements). The exception are holidays (minimum duration 1 week) at a health resort paid by the health insurance or stays at a clinic to recover from severe illnesses or surgery. Business trips are also excluded. An important index is the so-called travel-intensity or net-travel-intensity. This is the percentage of persons who had gone on a main holiday at least once within the surveyed year. Starting with the year 1998, annual surveys on holidays with a minimum number of 4 overnight stays are conducted according to the Council's Directive. They are performed as a Microcensus special survey each December. The survey program has been extended to include detailed questions for 4 main holidays since the survey in 1998. In addition, there are estimations on more than 4 (max. 18) main holidays the tourist might have gone on. In addition, missing data is supplemented with an imputation programme.

科研专用完整版。自1969年起，奥地利每三年开展一次针对本国居民假期习惯的微观普查（Microcensus）。本次普查的核心研究方向为对比旅游者的人口与社会经济特征（年龄、性别、社会境况等）与假期相关特征（旅行目的地、住宿安排等）。该普查问卷由经济合作与发展组织（OECD）制定，多年来仅进行了小幅调整；后为适配欧洲旅游统计指南完成修订，自1996年起改为每年12月开展一次。

普查问题主要围绕奥地利居民的主假期展开——根据国际约定，主假期指在居住区域外开展、且至少包含4晚住宿的休假。例外情况包括由健康保险支付费用的疗养度假（最短时长为1周），或因重症疾病、手术康复而入住诊所的情况；商务出差同样不计入统计范畴。

一项核心指标为所谓的旅行强度（travel-intensity）或净旅行强度，即受访年度内至少完成一次主假期的居民占比。自1998年起，欧盟理事会指令要求开展针对至少包含4晚住宿假期的年度普查，该普查以微观普查专项调查的形式于每年12月实施。自1998年普查起，调查方案已扩展为针对最多4次主假期设置详细问题；此外，还会对居民可能参与的4次以上（最多18次）主假期情况进行估算。此外，调查会通过插补程序对缺失数据进行补全。
