Description

The Swedish Contextual Database provides a large number of longitudinal and regional macro-level indicators primarily assembled to facilitate research on the effects of contextual factors on family and fertility behavior. It can be linked to the individual-level data of the Swedish GGS as well as to data of other surveys. It can also be used for other types of research and for teaching. The comparative data will also be integrated into the international Contextual Database of the GGP. The contextual data are available open-access through the GGP webpage: www.ggp-i.org and through the webpage of Stockholm University Demography Unit www.suda.su.se

Purpose:

The Swedish contextual database (CDB) was established to accompany the Swedish Generations and Gender Survey (GGS) and to complement the contextual database of the international Generations and Gender Programme (GGP).
