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.

欧洲价值观研究是一项关于人类基本价值观的大规模、跨国、重复的跨部门调查研究方案。它提供了对欧洲各地公民的思想，信仰，偏好，态度，价值观和意见的见解。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名公民使用标准化问卷进行了采访。在越来越多的国家中，每九年进行一次调查。2008年的第四波浪潮覆盖了不少于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，并将扩展到世界各地的数十个国家。这笔赠款将支持英国参与2017年EVS/WVS调查。研究的中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。价值观是先于并有助于组织更具体的态度、行动和道德判断的基本信念。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，对社会和政治有着潜在的深远影响。调查问卷的主题包括民族认同、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容忍、对两性平等的支持、宗教的作用、全球化的影响、对环境的态度、工作、家庭、政治、主观幸福感等，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”。许多项目重复了以往调查的项目，从而能够分析关键层面的长期变化。随着新浪潮的加入，EVS/WVS研究将成为过去四十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，单独使用该数据集或与前几波数据集结合使用，并单独查看英国，欧洲内部比较或全球跨国比较。EVS允许研究人员调查经济和谐是否伴随着文化和意识形态的融合。自1981年第一次调查以来，35年过去了，这些问题一如既往地重要。跨国主义的好处是有争议的;全球化在开放市场的影响已被强烈感受到，并继续辩论民族认同的性质和文化多样性的后果。对欧洲计划和多文化社会发展的支持摇摆不定，在一定程度上沿着由地区、世代、教育和阶级界定的社会断层线分裂。
