I4NG: Exploring secondary and archival data in social science research: An introduction
Reusing secondary data offers significant advantages, such as saving time, expanding research scope, and allowing researchers to analyse large, existing datasets for trends across different time points or geographical contexts. However, it comes with challenges. Researchers must ensure the original data aligns with their research objectives, raising ontological concerns about the data’s representation of reality. Epistemologically, using pre-collected data may limit the depth of understanding, as it was not originally gathered for the specific research question. Additionally, issues like data quality, missing information, and contextual differences can complicate interpretation.

Workshop: Exploring social trust: Analysing cross-country and generational trends
The workshop will explore various dimensions of trust, including personal and institutional trust, through a combination of theoretical insights and hands-on SPSS data analysis using European Social Survey data. Participants will analyse trust levels across different countries and age groups, with a particular focus on young people. By examining patterns in social trust, political trust, and interpersonal trust, they will gain a comprehensive understanding of trust dynamics and the factors shaping them in different societies.
