From 2023 to 2024, a new regular (sixth) wave was undertaken. CHPS is an interdisciplinary study using insights from sociology, economics, and political science.

The first wave's sample of households was constructed using probability (random) sampling to be representative of the Czech Republic's household population. In the next waves, households that took part in the previous year were asked to participate. All household members in the target age range were invited to complete the questionnaires. New households were not introduced into the sample from the second to the fifth wave.
