Applied Panel Data Analysis for Economic and Social Surveys

  • 6318 Accesses

Abstract

The textbook is intended as a motivation for social scientists and other researchers to pursue their own research projects using panel data. To this end, this chapter provides an overview over existing panel studies that are available for the scientific community. Moreover, it points to the more applied literature that introduces interested readers into the practicalities of the panel design. It also directs the reader to the more specialized panel literature in the various social sciences disciplines.
