?:abstract
  • Description and analysis of the personal income distribution in Germany rely heavily on two major surveys, the EVS and the SOEP (Socio-Economic Panel Study). These surveys, however, do not deliver exactely the same results in terms of income levels and structure, as well as on inequality and poverty. Some of the discrepancies have led to confusions in the politcal debate following the first official Poverty and Wealth Report in Germany. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to highlight the methodological differences between EVS and SOEP against the background of the recommendations of the "Canberra Group" and to give a comparison of some substantive results on the basis of both surveys. In describing and discussing systematically the features of the two major inquiries on household income, the authors aim to improve the understanding of differences in findings when measuring the German income distribution using SOEP and EVS, respectively.
