The study which uses a panel survey method is repeated every year and monitors sample of household members for four years. Every year, the study attempts to obtain two datasets: cross-sectional and panel. \n\nThe Income and Living Conditions Survey 2014 has been conducted to provide annual and regular cross-sectional data to answer questions such as:\n\n- How equally is the income in the country distributed and how has it changed as compared to the previous years?\n- How many poor people are there in the country and how do they distribute across regions? How has this situation changed as compared to the previous years?\n- Who is poor? Has there been a change over time?\n- How has this gap between the poor and the rich evolved over time?\n- What kind of a change or transition occurs in the incomes of individuals and households? How does the direction of this change depends on characteristics and circumstances, does it decline or grow?\n- How is the income distributed across sectors, types of income and household characteristics?\n- How do people's living conditions change or improve over time? \n- The study also aims to provide panel data to calculate indicators such as persistent income poverty and to measure net changes over time.\n\nThe longitudinal database 2013-2014 is documented here.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2013","end":"2014","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Serbia","abbreviation":"SRB"}],"geog_coverage":"The survey is implemented on the territory of the Republic of Serbia and the processing provides data for the Republic of Serbia (total) and for the regions: Belgrade region, Vojvodina region, Sumadija and Western Serbia, and Southern and Eastern Serbia.","universe":"Observation units are households selected according to the sample plan, whether these were one-person or several-member households, as well as all household members aged 15 and over.
