Submitted research projects should focus on (one of the following themes):
- Substantive analysis utilising the NEPS database.
- Linking and analysing NEPS data together with other national and/or international datasets in order to conduct theory-driven (comparative) analyses.
- Addressing methodological issues relevant to the NEPS.
NEPS is set up as an open research infrastructure providing unique data for further research within the scientific community. The Priority Programme of the DFG aims to be a starting point to foster widespread public use of the data and the research opportunities of NEPS. This call is open to all interested researchers in Germany from all related disciplines in social sciences. Equal access to the data is granted for prospective applicants.
