The Sixth International German Socio-Economic Panel User Conference (SOEP2004) will be held in Berlin, June 24-26, 2004. The conference provides researchers who use the SOEP, the opportunity to present and discuss their work with other researchers familiar with the SOEP data.
Shorter versions of selected conference papers were published in a volume of conference proceedings (Journal of Applied Social Science Studies [Schmollers Jahrbuch], 1/2005) with the understanding that a full version of the paper may be submitted to another professional journal.
