Details

TREE (Transitions from Education to Employment) is a large-scale longitudinal youth survey in Switzerland. The first cohort of TREE comprises a subsample of the Swiss PISA 2000 participants who have been followed over two decades in 10 panel waves so far (N in wave 1 = 6343, N in wave 10 = 3882). TREE plans to add an 11th panel wave in 2025 (age 40-41). As is custom for longitudinal surveys, the core of the instrument design for panel wave 11 shall remain the same as in the previous survey waves (see “TREE1 project documentation” & “TREE1 Concepts & Scales”). However, TREE invites proposals for additional questionnaire concepts, scales or single items that may enhance the analytic potential of the TREE dataset. For more details on the concepts and scales already in use, TREE can provide interested researchers with the codebooks of the data collected so far (data and documentation up to wave 9 can also be down-loaded at FORS, see TREE - TRansitions from Education to Employment, cohort 1 (swissubase.ch)).
Suggestions for additional instruments are welcome until 30 November 2024.
