NOTES: B5013
Parties are identified in Appendix I. The Coding scheme for B5013 was revised from the previous version, in order to clarify the difference between a "European Political Party" and a "European Parliament Political Group". The European Union recognizes a "European Political Party" as a political party organization operating transnationally in Europe and provides funding, based on the Treaty of Maastricht. On the other hand, in the European Parliament, these "Political Parties" ally themselves into "European Parliament Political Group" with a few other independents, for the convenience of their activities in the Parliament. Consequently, the "Groups" function as parties within the Parliament. For example, the Liberal Democrats in Britain affiliates with the ELDR: European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party, one of the European Political Parties. ELDR in turn consists of ALDE, Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, one of the European Parliament Political Groups, with EDP and some other representatives with affiliations neither with ELDR nor EDP. Even though European Parliament Political Groups function as political parties in the EP, we code each national party in B5013 based on the "Party", while indicating to which "Group" each "Party" belongs. Although they act within the framework of the "Group" in the European Parliament, most of the political parties in Europe keep their affiliations with each European Political Party. Moreover, because some of the groups were formed quite recently (for example, ALDE in 2004), the codes become ambiguous if we provide the codes based only on the "Group" and the survey was conducted before 2004. "Code 12. EUROPEAN DEMOCRATS (ED)" does not have legal status as a "European Political Party" any more. It is a sub-group within EPP-ED groups, though EPP has a dominant position within the group. ED is treated as a "party" in the coding because of its non-trivial historical position in the European Parliament. Similarly, "Code 62. NORDIC GREEN LEFT ALLIANCE (NGLA)" does not have official status as a "European Political Party" because it has representatives only from a few Nordic countries. Therefore, currently a total 10 political parties hold official status as being a "European Political Party". In 2004, EUROPE OF DEMOCRACIES AND DIVERSITIES, the political group at the European Parliament that existed since 1999. merged with other Eurosceptic parties and developed into INDEPENDENCE/DEMOCRACY GROUP. AIDE and EUD continued to affiliate with INDEPENDENCE/DEMOCRACY GROUP. In 2007, IDENTITY, TRADITION AND SOVEREIGNTY (ITS) was recognized with formal status as a European Parliament political group. The group consists mainly of far-right and nationalist parties. However, the group is not included in this coding system because Module 2 does not have any surveys after their foundation.

CSES is a collaborative program of research among election study teams from around the world. The research program as well as the questionnaire and the study design are developed by an international committee of leading social researchers. Participating countries include a common module of survey questions in their post-election studies. The data contain information on individual choice behavior, demographics, the constituencies, the national election results and the political systems. The studies are then merged into a single, free, public dataset for use in comparative study and cross-level analysis.

Die CSES ist eine weltweite Kooperation von Wahlforschern. Das Forschungsprogramm, der Fragebogen und das Studiendesign werden durch ein internationales Planungskomitee führender Sozialforscher erstellt. Teilnehmende Länder implementieren einen einheitlichen Fragenkomplex in ihre Nachwahlstudien. Die erhoben Daten umfassen das individuelle Wahlverhalten, politische Einstellungen und sozio-demographische Merkmale sowie Angaben zu den Wahlbezirken, den nationalen Wahlergebnissen und dem nationalen politischen System. Die einzelnen Länderstudien werden in einen gemeinsamen Datensatz integriert und stehen der Wissenschaft für vergleichende und länderübergreifende Untersuchungen frei zur Verfügung.
