Dataset: Czech Household Panel Survey 3. wave - contact forms

Abstract

For fieldwork monitoring purposes, the interviewers of the Czech Household Panel Survey (CHPS) completed contact forms in the CAPI administration software to keep records of the circumstances of contacting the households. After every attempt to approach households at selected addresses, the interviewer was to record the month, day, hour and minute (min) of contact, contact outcome (conout) and any refusal reason (conref). The interviewers were also required to determine the type of housing inhabited by the household (houstp), assess the quality of housing in the area (haqual) and compare the dwelling's quality with that typical of the area (hqualco).

The Czech Household Panel Survey (CHPS) is a sample survey which repeatedly interviewed, in the years 2015-2018, a random sample of households living in the territory of the Czech Republic. 5,159 households were interviewed in the first wave of data collection (Wave 1) that took place from July to December 2015. In the following three years, households interviewed in the previous year were invited to take part. 3,188 households participated in the final Wave 4 in 2018.
For public relations purposes, the survey is referred to as Proměny české společnosti (Transformations of the Czech Society, www.promenyceskespolecnosti.cz).
The goal of the survey is to map the living conditions of Czech households in the long-term perspective, describe the dynamics of change in the life of households and individuals, and to relate the process of social change to relations and happenings within households.
CHPS is an inter-disciplinary study that relies on sociological, economic and political science approaches. It consists of five main thematic areas:  Family life, time use, health; Education and the labour market; Social stratification; Housing; Political participation and civil society

The survey was co-organized by the Institute of Sociology, Czech Academy of Sciences, the CERGE-EI (a joint workplace of Charles University and the Economics Institute, Czech Academy of Sciences) and the Faculty of Social Studies, Masaryk University. Comprised of members of those institutions, the research team devised the survey's methodological plan and data collection instruments, selected fieldwork agencies through a public tendering procedure, collaborated with those agencies in implementing the survey's methodology, data checks and cleaning, processed the final datasets, and ensure that they were deposited in the Czech Social Science Data Archive.
The fieldwork was implemented by MEDIAN and STEM/MARK, two of the leading market research and opinion polling agencies in the Czech Republic. They are the founding members of SIMAR (Association of Market and Public Opinion Research Agencies) and members of ESOMAR (European Society for Opinion and Marketing Research). In addition to data collection, the agencies undertook the sampling process, collaborated in data checks and cleaning, and provided research methodology consultations.
The survey was funded by the Czech Science Foundation under grant GB14-36154G (Dynamics of Change in Czech Society).
