Webinar: Finding data, using it and creating new knowledge: COVID-19 studies at AUSSDA (in German)

When: November 18, 2021, 2-3.30 pm

Where: online

The video recording of the webinar is now available here.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, it became particularly clear how important it is to have quick access to up-to-date social science data: Attitudes, behaviours and living conditions of people provide information about the social and psychological consequences of the pandemic and how we as a society can address them.

As part of two projects supported by the Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF), we at AUSSDA have set up the COVID-19 Pandemic Dataverse - a data hub that allows us to centrally collect reusable research data from social science COVID studies conducted in Austria. We make them available in accordance with the FAIR principles (FAIR = findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable).

In our webinar, researchers will present the data sets of current studies available at AUSSDA and give an insight into their reuse potential, for researchers as well as for students.

Programme:

Matthias Reiter-Pazmandy (BMBWF) and Otto Bodi-Fernandez (AUSSDA, University of Graz) will speak about the project COSSDA - COVID-19 Social Science Data Hub Austria. After that, researchers will present the following studies:

• Austrian Corona Panel Project (Julia Partheymüller, University of Vienna)
• Values in Crisis (Wolfgang Aschauer, University of Salzburg)
• Learning in a State of Emergency (Ursula Holtgrewe/Irina Vana, Centre for Social Innovation)
• Learning under COVID-19 conditions (Marko Lüftenegger, University of Vienna)

This webinar is targeted at researchers and students of social science disciplines and everybody who is interested.
