Countries' Participation in ISSP Modules
To get an overview on ISSP member-countries participating in the various ISSP modules, you can download an
Excel file (ISSP Countries' Participation.xlsx)
including two comprehensive tables with information on countries’ participation, corresponding sample sizes, and years of fieldwork. If available, the table also provides the information whether the ISSP survey has been administered together with a national survey. Whereas the first table includes countries that are already integrated in the international ISSP data files, the countries in the second table are not (yet) integrated for various reasons.
Since both tables can be filtered, you are free to adjust them according to your own needs.
Here are three examples for a better understanding:
To gain information about the participating countries of a special module, filter the column 'Module' by means of the small arrow visible in the Excel file by a certain ISSP module, such as 'Role of Government I' and you achieve the following results (extract):
| Country | Year | Module | Sample size | Year of fieldwork |
| Australia | 1985 | Role of Government I | 1528 | 1986/1987 |
| Austria | 1985 | Role of Government I | 987 | 1986 |
| Germany | 1985 | Role of Government I | 1048 (West) | 1985 |
| Great Britain | 1985 | Role of Government I | 1530 | 1985 |
| Italy | 1985 | Role of Government I | 1580 | 1985 |
| United States of America | 1985 | Role of Government I | 677 | 1985 |
If you are interested in which modules a particular country has participated, filter the column 'Country' by choosing a country, such as 'Australia' and the table will look like this (extract):
| Country | Year | Module | Sample size | Year of fieldwork |
| Australia | 1985 | Role of Government I | 1528 | 1986/1987 |
| Australia | 1986 | Social Networks I | 1250 | 1987 |
| Australia | 1987 | Social Inequality I | 1663 | 1987/1988 |
| Australia | 1988 | Family and Changing Gender Roles I | 4513 | 1989/1990 |
| Australia | 1990 | Role of Government II | 2398 | 1990 |
| Australia | 1991 | Religion I | 2203 | 1993 |
To find out whether a country has participated in a particular module and its replications, filter the two columns 'Country' and 'Module' (extract):
| Country | Year | Module | Sample size | Year of fieldwork |
| Australia | 1985 | Role of Government I | 1528 | 1986/1987 |
| Australia | 1990 | Role of Government II | 2398 | 1990 |
| Australia | 1996 | Role of Government III | 2151 | 1996 |
| Australia | 2006 | Role of Government IV | 2781 | 2007 |
| Australia | 1985/90/ | Role of Government |
