The European Values Study (EVS) is a large-scale, cross-national, repeated cross-sectional survey research programme on basic human values. It provides insights into the ideas, beliefs, preferences, attitudes, values and opinions of citizens all over Europe. It is a unique investigation into how Europeans think about life, family, work, religion, politics and society. The EVS started in 1981, when a thousand citizens in each of the European member states of that time were interviewed using standardized questionnaires. The survey has been repeated every nine years in an increasing number of countries. The fourth wave in 2008 covered no fewer than 46 European countries, from Ireland to Azerbaijan and from Portugal to Norway. The fifth wave in 2017 is being run in cooperation with the World Values Survey (which grew out of the EVS) and will extend to scores of countries around the world. This grant will support British participation in the 2017 EVS/WVS survey. The central research question is whether values are changing in modern European society, to what extent and in what direction. Values are basic convictions that are prior to, and help to organize, more particular attitudes, actions and moral judgments. The question of how and why values are changing is important because values determine what people care about, with potentially profound impact on society and politics. The questionnaire covers topics that include national identity, culture, diversity, insecurity, support for democracy, tolerance of foreigners and ethnic minorities, support for gender equality, the role of religion, the impact of globalization, attitudes towards the environment, work, family, politics, subjective well-being, and so on. The questionnaire also contains items on issues of personal and civic ethics, from smoking indoors to suicide. The overarching topic of the current EVS wave is 'Social Solidarity and European Identity'. Many of the items replicate those from previous surveys, thus enabling analysis of change over time on the key dimensions. With the addition of the new wave, the EVS/WVS study will be a unique source of trend data for the past four decades. The range of potential research questions that can be addressed by scholars and research users is very wide, involving any of the topics covered, using either this dataset on its own or in conjunction with previous waves, and looking either at Great Britain alone, comparisons within Europe, or global cross-national comparisons. The EVS allows researchers to investigate whether economic harmonisation is accompanied by cultural and ideological integration. Three and a half decades on from the first survey in 1981, the questions are as important as ever. The benefits of transnationalism are disputed; the impact of globalisation in an open market has been strongly felt, and debates continue over the nature of national identity and the consequences of cultural diversity. Support for both the European project and the development of multicultural societies has wavered, divided to some extent along social fault lines defined by region, generation, education and class.

欧洲价值观研究（EVS）是一项关于人类基本价值观的大规模、跨国、重复横断面调查研究方案。它提供了对整个欧洲公民的思想、信仰、偏好、态度、价值观和观点的见解。这是对欧洲人如何看待生活、家庭、工作、宗教、政治和社会的独特调查。EVS始于1981年，当时每个欧洲成员国的1000名公民接受了标准化问卷调查。这项调查每九年在越来越多的国家重复进行一次。2008年的第四波移民浪潮覆盖了不少于46个欧洲国家，从爱尔兰到阿塞拜疆，从葡萄牙到挪威。2017年的第五次浪潮将与世界价值观调查（由EVS发展而来）合作进行，并将扩展到全球数十个国家。这笔拨款将支持英国参与2017年EVS/WVS调查。研究的核心问题是，现代欧洲社会的价值观是否正在发生变化，变化的程度和方向是什么。价值观是一种基本信念，它先于并有助于组织更具体的态度、行为和道德判断。价值观如何以及为什么发生变化的问题很重要，因为价值观决定了人们关心什么，对社会和政治可能产生深远的影响。问卷涵盖的主题包括国家认同、文化、多样性、不安全感、对民主的支持、对外国人和少数民族的宽容、对性别平等的支持、宗教的作用、全球化的影响、对环境、工作、家庭、政治、主观幸福感的态度等等。调查问卷还包括个人和公民道德问题，从室内吸烟到自杀。当前EVS浪潮的首要主题是“社会团结和欧洲认同”。许多项目重复了以前的调查，从而能够分析关键维度随时间的变化。随着新浪潮的加入，EVS/WVS研究将成为过去40年趋势数据的独特来源。学者和研究用户可以解决的潜在研究问题的范围非常广泛，涉及所涵盖的任何主题，可以单独使用该数据集，也可以与以前的浪潮结合使用，可以单独查看英国，欧洲内部的比较，也可以查看全球跨国比较。EVS允许研究人员调查经济协调是否伴随着文化和意识形态的融合。自1981年首次调查以来，35年过去了，这些问题与以往一样重要。跨国主义的好处是有争议的；全球化在开放市场中的影响已被强烈感受到，关于国家认同的本质和文化多样性后果的辩论仍在继续。对欧洲一体化计划和多元文化社会发展的支持都有所动摇，在一定程度上，人们沿着由地区、世代、教育和阶级界定的社会断层线分裂。
