Youth in Europe Study (YES!)
type: Dataset
description: Youth in Europe Study (YES!) is the name of the survey study within the project "Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Survey in Four European Countries" (CILS4EU). It is an international research project aimed at gaining more insight into the current living conditions and opinions of young people. The pupil questionnaire covers several areas, including: School and results, Feelings and opinions, Health, Friends and relationship building, Family Relationships and Leisure. In each participating country, approximately 5,000 pupils attending 8th grade (or corresponding) were interviewed by means of a questionnaire. In Sweden, approximately 130 schools were randomly selected. The first survey in 2011 was followed by another survey in 2012 (when pupils were in 9th grade) one in 2013 (when respondents have finished compulsory school and have entered upper secondary education, the labour market or else)and another​ in 2016. The survey is conducted in Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands and England. Youth in Europe (YES!) is a joint initiative of researchers from Stockholm University, the University of Mannheim, University of Utrecht, Tilburg University, and University of Oxford. Purpose: The purpose of the study is to answer questions on young people’s living conditions and to compare these between countries, e.g.: Which role do school, family and friends play for youth in Europe? What are the hobbies, interests and issues they are engaged in? How do educational careers of young people with and without immigration background proceed? What are their educational and occupational goals? What can be done in order to improve educational chances of all young people?
