The Research Institute Social Cohesion (RISC) and the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) at the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW Berlin) are conducting a panel study as part of their research cooperation. This involves surveying individuals in Germany in their household context on aspects of social cohesion, social inequality and social conflict. The dataset "German Social Cohesion Panel 2021/22 – Wave 1" includes survey data and generated indicators of the first and second part of the first panel wave. It contains responses from household anchor persons drawn from population registers and from adult household members who were named by the anchor persons and subsequently interviewed.
