  • DEGREE: Comparative - Highest completed degree of education: Categories for international comparison

    The aim of this variable is to measure the highest completed education level/ degree of the respondent in order to facilitate international comparison.

    Procedure: The degree of education is asked country-specific (see variables AU_DEGR-ZA_DEGR). Then, the harmonized ISSP categories for the variable DEGREE are to be computed from the country-specific degree variables.
    Correspondence lists between country specific categories and categories of the ISSP DEGREE variable must be reported in detail in the BV documentation template for each country.
    Since DEGREE is a slightly re-arranged subset of ISCED-97, instructions for actually coding ISCED-97 from nat-DEGR can be used in each country to support the coding of DEGREE.

    AU: What is the highest year of schooling you have completed? What is the highest educational qualification you have completed outside of school?
    BE: What is the highest level of education you have attained?
    CH: Which is the highest educational level you achieved? Describe carefully, indicating also the country where it has been achieved.
    CL: What is your educational level?
    CZ: What is the highest level of education that you have attained?
    DE: Next we come to questions about your education and job. Let's begin with your education: What general school leaving certificate do you have (highest certificate)? (If not still at school) What vocational or professional training do you have? What is the highest university degree you have graduated with? What is the highest polytechnical degree you have graduated with?

    FI: What is your education? Please choose the highest level of education attained, choose one alternative only.
    FR: What is the highest level of education that you have attained?
    GB-GBN: Constructed by using the two questions (multicoded): 'Have you passed any of the examinations on this card?' 'And have you passed any of the exams or got any of the qualifications on this card?'
    GE: What is the highest level of education you have attained?
    HR: Your highest level of education (schooling completed regularly or part-time). (For respondents who are currently involved in education, mark the highest completed level).
    HU: What is your highest level of education?
    IL: What is the highest level of education you have attained?
    IN: What is the highest level of education that you have attained? We need to know the highest level of class/ degree that you have completed?
    IS: What is the highest level of education that you have attained?
    JP: Please indicate the last school you attended or the school you are currently attending.
    KR: What is the highest level of school you have attended? Did you graduate from this school, or are you currently attending?
    LT: What is the highest level of education that you successfully completed? (If vocational education, please ask, in what school it was completed and what the duration of the studies was.)
    LV: What is the highest level of education that you have attained?
    NO: Which general education or specialisation for studies have you completed? Which vocational education/ training have you completed? Which tertiary education have you completed?
    NZ: Which one of these categories best describes your highest formal qualification? Which one of these categories best describes the amount of formal education you have had?
    PH: What is the highest level of education you have attained?
    RU. What educational level have you attained?
    SE: What is the highest level of education that you have attained?
    SI: Name the last school that you finished, regularly or irregularly:
    SK: What is your highest achieved education level ('achieved' = to have a certificate/ degree)?
    SR: What is the highest education that you have attended? And what is your highest completed education?
    TH: The highest level of education:
    TR: Could you please tell me your highest achieved education level?
    TW: What is your educational level? Please refer to the level of education that you are currently in or the highest level of education that you have attained, regardless of whether you have graduated or not.
    US: What is the highest grade in elementary school or high school that you finished and got credit for? (If finished 9th-12th grade or don't know) Did you ever get a high school diploma or a GED certificate?/ Did you ever complete one or more years of college for credit - not including schooling such as business college, technical or vocational school? (If yes) How many years did you complete?/ Do you have any college degrees? (If yes) What degree or degrees?
    VE: What was the level of education for which you approved the last year of your education?

  • Note:
    / DE: Question on vocational training only asked if respondent not still at school. Please note that the original data allows for multiple answers. Respondents with multiple educational degrees are coded according to their 'highest' educational entry in the ISSP degree variable.
    / GB-GBN: Primarily, the British DEGREE variable recorded qualification levels. For the sake of integration/ harmonization, respondents with 'No secondary qualifications' (see code 1 in GB_DEGR) and originally included in 'No answer' (code 9) in DEGREE were retrospectively recoded into codes 0-2 in DEGREE by means of the number of education years (if EDUCYRS <6: DEGREE=0; if EDUCYRS 6+7 years: DEGREE=1; if EDUCYRS=8-11: DEGREE=2).
    / LV: Primary education until 1961: 7 classes, from 1962-1989: 8 classes, from 1990: 9 classes.
    / NZ: The DEGREE variable was generated from answers to the first question and later the answers to the second question were used to filter respondents of no formal qualification into 1. No formal education, 2. Primary and 3. Lower secondary school.
    / SR: In the Surinamese case, the variable for completed education degrees was generated to meet the ISSP demands for international comparison. The result however is a serious misrepresentation of education in Suriname, since 60 % of the population does not finish their last education attended.
    / TW: In addition to the data in TW_DEGR, information from EDUCYRS was used to determine the highest level of education completed.
