      abstract = {Above all, this book focuses on the application of  sociodemographic survey questions. Based on theoretical  foundations, it addresses the operationalization of  variables and presents socio-demographic questionnaire  modules for within- and across-country comparative survey  research. The book pursues three main objectives: to  provide a thorough and comprehensive overview of the survey  instruments currently available for the measurement of  sociodemographic variables in cross-national comparative  research; to offer the reader a set of harmonized  international demographic standards; and to show how these  standards can be implemented by the various parties  involved in international comparative surveys – from the  central project coordinators, to the researchers on the  national survey teams, to the fieldwork agencies and their  interviewers, to respondents, and eventually, to the data  processing experts preparing the datasets for comparative  analysis. The book offers a valuable resource for  researchers, practitioners and students actively involved  in producing and analyzing sociodemographic survey data.  The typical readers will be social science researchers,  qualified consultants and professionals interested in the  field of (comparative) survey research. The book can also  serve as a useful supplement to introductory textbooks on  survey methodology and is suitable for Bachelor and Master  students of the social sciences.},
