LIVES FORS Cohort Survey Waves 1-7 (beta version)

The principal aim of the Swiss Household Panel (SHP) is to observe social change, in particular the dynamics of changing living conditions and representations in the population of Switzerland. Covering a broad range of topics and approaches in the social sciences, SHP is a yearly panel with rotating modules following three random samples of private households in Switzerland over time, interviewing all household members, mainly by telephone. The LIVES FORS Cohort Survey can be essentially seen as an SHP additional sample. The waves of SHP and the LIVES FORS Cohort Survey run in parallel and share most of the questions and modules. That said the LIVES FORS Cohort Survey is distinguished from SHP by a specific reference population and sampling procedure. In addition, only the targeted member of the household has to respond to the individual questionnaire (and not all members as in SHP).

瑞士家庭追踪调查（Swiss Household Panel, SHP）的核心宗旨为观测社会变迁，尤其聚焦瑞士人口群体中生活状况与认知表征的动态演变。该调查涵盖社会科学领域的众多主题与研究范式，采用轮换模块设计，以三个随机抽取的瑞士私人家庭样本为长期追踪对象，主要通过电话访谈所有家庭成员。LIVES FORS队列调查（LIVES FORS Cohort Survey）本质上可视为SHP的补充样本，二者的调查轮次同步开展，共享绝大多数问卷题目与调查模块。不过，LIVES FORS队列调查在特定参照人群与抽样流程上与SHP存在差异；此外，该调查仅要求家庭中指定的目标成员填写个人问卷，而非如SHP那般覆盖所有家庭成员。
