Austrian Social Science Data Archive (AUSSDA) 10.11587/RWHCSF.

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic confronted the world with a crisis that was massive in scale, rapid in pace, and global in scope. Governments all over the world were confronted with the challenging task of steering anxious publics through the crisis and they chose televised press conferences as their preferred means of communication. This dataset contains transcripts of 1166 press conferences with 448 speakers in 17 OECD countries and three U.S. states throughout the initial phase of Covid-19, beginning with the first public mention of Covid-19 in a press conference and ending with the first announcement of easing restrictions. In addition, the dataset includes contextual data on the countries and publicly available biographical data on the speakers.

Abstract: The Austrian Foreign Policy Panel Project (AFP3) is a survey project of the University of Innsbruck and the Federal Ministry for European and International Affairs (BMEIA) of the Republic of Austria. The project examines the level of knowledge as well as the attitudes and preferences of the Austrian population in the realm of foreign policy and international relations. It covers a broad range of issue-areas such as security policy, neutrality, foreign trade, migration and digitalization as well as Austria’s status in the world and its relations to other countries. The survey is designed as a continuous long-term panel, in which one survey wave is carried out every year to identify long-term developments and the effects of current developments. Around 3000 Austrian citizens above the age of 18 are surveyed using a web-based (CAWI) questionnaire. Survey participants are selected through non-probability quota-sampling.
