Conversion tools for the adjusted EGP class schema
On this page, you can find the conversion tools for construction
of the adjusted EGP class schema (Güveli, 2006). We encourage researchers to use
these tools in their research.
Researchers who use the adjusted EGP class schema are kindly asked to cite the study as follow:
Güveli, A. (2006) ‘New social classes within the service class in
the Netherlands and Britain. Adjusting the AGP class schema for the technocrats
and the social and cultural specialists’. ICS-dissertation, Nijmegen.
Dataset contains ‘EGP class schema’
If your dataset already contains a variable ‘EGP class schema' and
4-digit ISCO 68, ISCO 88 and CBS 84 occupation codes, you can select the Class I
and II of this schema and use the occupation codes for distinguishing the classes
within the middle/service class.
Dataset does not contain ‘EGP class schema’
If your dataset does not contain a variable ‘EGP class schema’ but
it contains 4-digit ISCO 68, ISCO 88 and CBS 84 occupation codes, you can use the
conversion tools provided below to construct the adjusted EGP class schema. These
tools are based on the conversion tools of Harry Ganzeboom (http://home.fsw.vu.nl/~ganzeboom/).
