王赟—跨文化研究—社会阶级研究

阶级结构与阶级意识 在这些调查中收集的数据可以衡量权威、自治和层级这些社会概念与个人的社会、经济、职业地位是多么相关,从而提供一个系统的方法来分析社会阶级结构。一连串的问题重点提出了以下与工作相关的问题，如监督、决策、自主权和被调查者在层级、所有权、文凭和收入这些方面的正式地位。其他工作相关的数据描述了规模、工业部门和政府或公司和个人雇主的联系。更多的信息是聚焦在被调查者家庭和被调查者的配偶和朋友的家庭的阶级起源。阶级相关经历的数据如失业和工会参与度也收集了，以及家庭内部权力和劳动分工的数据。此外，调查包含了一系列广泛的关于社会和政治态度以及被调查者的政治参与等问题。 Class Structure and Class Consciousness Data collected in these surveys measure how such social concepts as authority, autonomy, and hierarchy relate to the social, economic, and occupational positions of individuals, thus providing a systematic means for analyzing social class structure. A battery of questions addressed work-related issues such as supervision, decision-making, autonomy, respondent's formal position in the hierarchy, ownership, credentials, and income. Other work- related data describe the size, industrial sector, and government or corporate linkages of the individual's employer. Further information was gathered on the class origins of the respondent's family and of the families of the respondent's spouse and friends. Data on class-related experiences such as unemployment and union participation were also collected, as well as data on the division of power and labor in the household. In addition, the survey contained a broad range of questions on social and political attitudes and on the respondent's political participation.
