Field work for ALLBUS 2020 postponed

Due to the infection control measures during the COVID-19 pandemic, conducting a survey based on in-person interviews has become infeasible in 2020. In consultation with the survey institute, GESIS has therefore decided to postpone the fieldwork for ALLBUS to protect both interviewers and survey participants.

Consequently, no new ALLBUS data will be published in 2020. The planned focus module on deviant behavior will be rescheduled as soon as possible.
