TREE-related research projects
To date, a large number of research activities have been drawing on the analytic potential of TREE's data. Over the years, the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) alone has been funding projects with a total grant amount of almost 8mio CHF that explicitly rely on analyses of the TREE data. Some of them are conceived as extensions of the TREE main study, generating additional (qualitative or other) data that lend themselves to enlarge the scope of TREE's analytic potential towards mixed-methods designs.
PICE (Parental Investment in Children's Education)
PICE is a complementary TREE study that collected qualitative data allowing to investigat the influence of parental educational aspirations and support on career choices of young adults in Switzerland. The project was funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation from 2019 to 2022.
