With the goal of collecting insightful information about future narratives and family care, central topics of the ECPD research endeavor, factorial survey was chosen as a suitable method. A preliminary set of vignettes was designed conjointly, and before proceeding with the large-scale survey, a series of cognitive pretests were conducted to examine comprehensibility and context effects. In this study we describe the design and analysis of these cognitive pretests, with a special focus on the process of designing the final survey informed by the pretests' feedback.}, language = {en} } @techreport{SolgaBrzinskyFayGrafetal., type = {Working Paper}, author = {Solga, Heike and Brzinsky-Fay, Christian and Graf, Lukas and Gresch, Cornelia and Protsch, Paula}, title = {Vergleiche innerhalb von Gruppen und institutionelle Gelingensbedingungen.

Following the logic of difference, we ask whether, despite their different institutionalization, these two sectors in France and Germany react similarly to the Europe-wide Copenhagen and Bologna processes. We compare the relationship between vocational education and training (VET) and higher education (HE), contrasting a number of influential typologies. Analyzing the current situation, we ask whether these differences in postsecondary education and training systems continue to exist.}, language = {en} }
