We test the importance of the three 'p factors' (performance, process and probity) to explain the evolution of political trust in Spain between 1997 and 2019. To this end, the study analyses two longitudinal datasets, namely, a repeated cross-sectional dataset from the Spanish samples of Eurobarometer and an individual-level panel survey conducted during a period of economic recovery in 2015. The study finds that perception about corruption and political process matter greatly in shaping political trust and to a lesser extent economic performance. Although the Great Recession is likely responsible for the sharp decline in trust towards political parties and the parliament between 2008 and 2012, the analysis suggests that trust in representative institutions remains low even after the Recession because of a series of devastating incidents regarding corruption and perceived shortcomings of the political process. In contrast, the study finds certain indications that trust in the judicial system might have been mainly affected by perceptions of corruption.
These do-files were used to conduct the analyses in the associated journal article. The dataset is not currently available for public use for confidentiality reasons.
The Swiss Electoral Study 2011 (Selects 2011) was conducted by FORS and funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. The Selects study of 2011 and the studies of 1995, 1999, 2003 and 2007 aim to ensure the continuity and further development of election research. The data collected in this study highlights the reasons for participation and abstention during the elections, the composition of the electorate of the parties, the voting behavior of different social groups, the main political attitudes and orientations of the electorate, and the opinion-forming process. 4391 people were interviewed between October 24 and November 25, 2011. The national sample includes 2000 people; 2391 additional interviews were carried out to ensure a minimum sample of 100 persons per canton, respectively about 600 in the cantons of Zurich, Ticino and Geneva. The interviews were conducted in Adligenswil, Geneva and Winterthur by the survey institute DemoSCOPE. The interviews examined, among other things, electoral behavior in 2011 and 2007, the reasons for (non-)participation in the elections, party identification, political interest, political opinions, various political key issues, media use and political knowledge. Statistical characteristics such as education, occupation, pay, etc. were also collected. After the telephone survey, a supplementary questionnaire was sent to 2489 people. In total, 1786 people (72%) returned the completed questionnaire electronically or by mail.

EU-LFS 2010 contains the Module on Reconciliation between work and family life. The first aim is to establish how far persons participate in the labour force as they wish and if not, whether the reasons are connected with a lack of suitable care services for children and dependant persons. The second aim is to analyse the degree of flexibility offered at work in terms of reconciliation with family life. The third aim is to estimate how often career breaks occur and how far leave of absence is taken. Target population: persons aged 15-64 years old
