The Luxembourg Income Study (LIS)
GESIS participates in financing the LIS, and this permits German researchers to have access to LIS data. The LIS databank has a data infrastructure suited for the secondary analysis of household income patterns using international data.
For each individual household, data is available that encompasses
- income from wages
- income from wealth
- taxes
- public transfer payments and
- pension income
as well as 34 other socio-demographic characteristics of the household. At present, data are available for 25 countries on four continents.
The LIS portal is: www.lisproject.org
