title: Ten Year Longitudinal Study of School Leavers, 1980-1989

description: This longitudinal survey followed three cohorts of school leavers over a ten-year period, looking at the transition from school to work. An initial sample from twelve metropolitan Adelaide public high schools was taken in 1980. The questionnaire used in schools (1980-1983) examined attributional style; perceived social supports and leisure activities. This questionnaire also contained separate sections on psychological measures. Rosenberg's (1965) Self-Esteem Scale; the Nowicki-Strickland Internal-External Control Scale (1974) and Smith's (1973) short measure of achievement motivation were used. After 1984, when all respondents had left school, a number of different scales were incorporated. Respondents were asked to complete the General Health Questionnaire; The Hopelessness Scale of Beck, Weisman, Lester and Trexler (1984) was used; Srole's (1965) scale for measuring anomia (anomie); and the job satisfaction of employed respondents was measured. The 1988 version of the questionnaire also included some questions on general health, some on financial resources as well as some additional scales. Srole's Anomia Scale was used to detect general disaffection; a scale of life satisfaction was also used; and a modified version of the Multi-Dimensional Support Scale used by Neuling and Winefield (1988) measured the frequency and satisfaction with souces of support to the respondent. A shorter questionnaire was administered in the final year of the study (1989). It included the Depressive Affect Scale; the General Health Questionnaire and the final items from the Job Satisfaction and Life Satisfaction scales. Background variables included age, sex, highest level of education, occupation and ethnic origin.

title: Australian Youth Survey, 1995: Wave 7

description: The Australian Youth Survey (AYS) is a longitudinal survey program based on annual interviews with a cohort of young people aged 16-19 in 1989, with a new sample of 16 year olds added each year from 1990-1994. From 1995, no further additions were made to the sample and interviews were conducted by telephone rather than face-to-face. The survey aims mainly at providing data on the dynamics of the youth labour market, and in particular to address questions which are not readily covered with available sources of cross-sectional data. Labour market topics include detailed work history, job search behaviour, job training and experience with the Commonwealth Employment Service. Other topics related to the main labour market theme include secondary schooling and retention to Year 12, career advice, post-secondary education and qualifications, transition from school/study to work, health, housing and financial conditions. Basic demographic variables include age, sex, marital status, size of household, country of birth, racial origin, parental education and occupation, religion, income, and area of residence.

title: 1996 New Zealand Election Study

description: The objectives of the 1996 election study were two-fold: to monitor the democratic process during New Zealand's transition from a plurality (first-past-the-post) electoral system to a proportional (MMP) system, and to gauge the attitudes, opinions and behaviours of electors. Two election surveys were conducted - one during the campaign and the other after the election. Electors surveyed in the pre-election phase answered questions on party affiliation, preferred Prime Minister, most important issue affecting voting choice, party and candidate the respondent was most likely to choose, coalition preferences, parties the respondent expected to form the next government, and the relative importance of party and electoral votes under MMP. Electors in the post-election phase were asked questions on their interest in politics, the type of communication (e.g. phone calls, letters) received from members of campaigning parties; previous and current party affiliation; the effectiveness of M.P.s; unity of the main political parties, the performance of the government; important election and social issues, the power of the vote and the need for a one-party government. Background variables included age, gender, marital status, occupation, income, collection of benefits, subjective class, religion, ethnic identity and occupation and partisanship of parents.

title: Teacher 2000: Teacher Satisfaction, Motivation and Health, 1995-1996

description: The considerable changes that have occurred in the education system over the last decade, combined with an ageing and largely immobile teaching force and an expected expansion of teacher roles and functions, led researchers to consider the effect these factors have had on the satisfaction, motivation and occupational health of teachers and school executives. In an attempt to develop a nationwide instrument suitable for identifying and quantifying these factors, teaching staff at 71 public schools in Sydneys' Metropolitan West were surveyed. The results obtained from this survey are hoped to validate an understanding of teacher satisfaction, dissatisfaction, values and health, and to be used as a benchmark for tracking, explaining, planning and predicting teacher welfare at the school and other educational levels. Respondents were primarily asked questions relating to their level of satisfaction with various aspects of the teaching profession, including their ability to influence students' success and attitudes; their contribution to the school and education system; current work hours and salary; opportunities for promotion and involvement in school decision making; the amount of recognition teachers receive; the status of teachers; achievement of professional goals; the current procedure for selection, hiring and transfer of teachers; and, how they felt when they first started teaching. In the second part of the questionnaire, respondents were asked to indicate how important the achievement of certain goals were to them. Such goals included having a close and satisfying relationship; to obtain rewards and recognition; be committed to a cause; retain or achieve financial well-being; to avoid stress; influence others; and, to establish a career. Emotional and physical health were addressed in the third part of the questionnaire, asking the respondent if they had recent problems with lack of concentration, lost sleep, stress, depression or an inability to make decisions. Background variables include age, sex, country of birth, first language, highest qualification, current teaching position, years of service and years taught at current school, and why they wanted to become a teacher.

title: Negotiating the Life Course, 1997

description: Negotiating the Life Course is designed to study the changing life courses and decision-making processes of Australian men and women as the family and society move from male breadwinner orientation in the direction of higher levels of gender equity. The project has six aims: to extend the theories of human capital and new home economics in explaining women's and men's labour force participation; to map women's and men's work trajectories over their life course, from career entry into retirement, and to develop explanatory models of career trajectories; to identify those aspects of the family-household system and the labour market that facilitate or impede women's involvement with the labour market; to investigate the interrelationships between labour force decisions about family formation and household arrangements; to identify the portfolio of resources that women and men draw upon throughout their lives when making decisions about career and family; and to assess the policy implications of the findings of the project for the institutions of the welfare state, the labour market and the family. Variables include relationship and fertility histories, household work, child care arrangements, future objectives, attitudes to work, promotion, children and relationships. Background variables include parental country of birth, employment, occupation and education, respondent's and spouse's place of residence, education, income, housing, religion, health status, birthplace, marital status and household composition.
