Korean General Social Survey (KGSS), 2003

The Korean General Social Survey (KGSS) is the South Korean version of the General Social Survey (GSS), closely replicating the original GSS of the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago. Each round of the KGSS typically includes the topical module surveys of the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP), and/or the East Asian Social Survey (EASS), an international survey network of four GSS-type surveys from countries in East Asia (including China, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea). Respondents were asked for their opinions on Korean society, economic issues, government performance, international relations, business, women and family matters, immigration, and social inequality. Additional questions were asked about everyday life, household and family composition, and media use. Demographic information includes age, sex, education level, household income, employment status, religious preference, political party affiliation, and political philosophy.

韩国综合社会调查（Korean General Social Survey, KGSS）是综合社会调查（General Social Survey, GSS）的韩国本土化版本，严格复刻了芝加哥大学全国民意研究中心（National Opinion Research Center）推出的原版GSS。每一期KGSS调查通常会纳入国际社会调查项目（International Social Survey Programme, ISSP）的主题模块问卷，以及/或东亚社会调查（East Asian Social Survey, EASS）——后者是由中国、日本、中国台湾地区、韩国四个开展GSS类调查的主体组成的国际调查网络。受访者需针对韩国社会、经济议题、政府履职表现、国际关系、商业环境、女性与家庭事务、移民问题及社会不平等现象发表看法。问卷还增设了关于日常生活、家庭结构与组成、媒介使用情况的额外问题。人口统计学信息涵盖年龄、性别、受教育程度、家庭收入、就业状态、宗教信仰偏好、政党归属及政治意识形态取向。
