  • Derivation of data:
    This variable consolidates all available data on household income. For 1980 to 1984 it contains the sum of the respondent’s personal income (inc) and the income reported for any additional members of the household (hh2inc, hh3inc, hh4inc, hh5inc, hh6inc, hh7inc, hh8inc). When there was no valid data (‘refused’, ‘don’t know’ or ‘no answer’) in any one of these variables, no valid household income was constructed (-32 ‘Cannot be generated’). Please note that in some cases the household income does not correspond exactly to the sum of the respondent's income and the income of the household members. This is due to rounding errors incurred when converting the original DM values to EURO values.

    For 1986 and later, this variable contains the data directly surveyed with the questions documented in di05 and di06. For each of the categories in di06 the mid-point of class entered into the summary. However, the lowest income category 'Under 200 EURO' received the value 150 EURO, while the highest category of '7500 EURO and over' was coded as 8750 EURO.

    When analyzing income data, please decide for yourself whether you want to include cases that report a zero income as valid data. By default, these cases are coded as -50.

?:groupDescription
  • Mit der Allgemeinen Bevölkerungsumfrage der Sozialwissenschaften (ALLBUS) werden aktuelle Daten über Einstellungen, Verhaltensweisen und Sozialstruktur der Bevölkerung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland erhoben. Seit 1980 wird alle zwei Jahre ein repräsentativer Querschnitt der Bevölkerung mit einem teils konstanten, teils variablen Fragenprogramm befragt. Die Daten stehen unmittelbar nach ihrer benutzergerechten Aufbereitung und Dokumentation allen Interessenten für Forschung und Lehre zur Verfügung. (de)
