Survey Question Bank
Welcome to topics
The topics section of the SQB is designed for those users who come to the service with a specific topic in mind and wish to see not only what questions have been asked in social surveys on that topic but also wish to understand the conceptual structure of a topic and the way it is reflected in the structuring of questions and survey instruments. Currently, there are 33 topics covered.
For each topic, a set of resources and a bibliography are provided and, for a subset of the topics, an expert overview is available which provides a summary account of that topic's (or a sub-topic's) main concepts and of current approaches to measuring them using survey methods.
