It aims to understand different aspects of young people\u00b4s lives in the country, such as education, work, health, family and political engagement, among other topics. Do you currently go to school, or do you work? \u00a0What do you usually do in your free time? How satisfied are you with your life? These are some of the questions we are trying to answer.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Why is the Youth Survey Luxembourg important?” style=”round_outline” color=”black” size=”sm” css=””]The Youth Survey Luxembourg is the only general survey of young people living in Luxembourg. Through this project, we are able to understand different aspects of young people\u00b4s lives, their attitudes and needs.<\/p>\n

This means that, at the end of the project, our research findings will help specialists, other researchers, the government and society to develop better policies and improve young people\u00b4s lives in Luxembourg. Therefore, your participation and answers are extremely valuable for us.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Why have I been chosen?” style=”round_outline” color=”black” size=”sm” css=””]In order to ensure our data are accurate and representative of the population we are interested in, we have worked in cooperation with the Centre des technologies de l\u2019Information de l\u2019\u00c9tat<\/a> (CTIE) to select our respondents from the National Register of Persons (RNPP). Please note that during this procedure, researchers at the University of Luxembourg<\/a> did not have access to respondents\u2019 names or addresses at any time.<\/p>\n

We have carried out a statistical procedure to select young people residing in Luxembourg who are between 12 and 29 years old. This means that every selected respondent is extremely important for our survey results.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I have already participated in the Youth Survey Luxembourg 2019, 2020, 2021 or 2024. Why have I been chosen again?” style=”round_outline” color=”black” size=”sm” css=””]The respondents for the Youth Survey Luxembourg are drawn at random for each wave. There is a small chance, that one is chosen multiple times between the age of 12 and 29. The researchers at the University of Luxembourg<\/a>\u00a0did not have and do not have access to respondents\u2019 names or addresses. It is therefore impossible for us to avoid multiple invitations.<\/p>\n

Every selected respondent is extremely important for our survey results. We would be very grateful, if you would participate again.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I would like to participate in the Youth Survey Luxembourg. What should I do?” style=”round_outline” color=”black” size=”sm” css=””]Please note that you can participate in the Youth Survey Luxembourg only by invitation, i.e. in case you received an invitation letter to participate in our study. After receiving your invitation letter, please go to yosu.uni.lu<\/a>, click on the\u00a0start survey<\/a> button and enter your personal access code (ID and password) in the appropriate fields. You may choose your preferred language for answering the questions. Upon completion of the survey, you have the chance to receive a voucher worth 15 Euros as a thank you for your participation. In total, up to 2000 vouchers will be distributed to the participants on a first-come-first-serve basis.<\/p>\n

Please note that, in this survey, you will be asked about some topics such as feelings of sadness or other personal concerns. Some respondents may consider such content unpleasant. You can skip these questions and pause the survey at any time and use your personal credentials to continue at a later point. You may also end your participation at any time without giving a reason and without any consequences.<\/p>\n

[vc_toggle title=”What will happen to my personal data?” style=”round_outline” color=”black” size=”sm”]The Youth Survey Luxembourg is subject to the general data protection regulations currently in force in Luxembourg. This means that all answers will be strictly confidential, pseudonymised and used only for scientific purposes. Hence, it will not be possible to identify you personally at any time, neither before, during nor after the survey.<\/p>\n

Pseudonymisation means that your personal data is encrypted with an ID that makes it impossible for the researchers involved at the University of Luxembourg as well as outsiders to identify you or link you to your contact details.<\/p>\n

For this reason, after completing the survey, your answers cannot be excluded from our database. Your answers will be securely stored at the\u00a0University of Luxembourg<\/a> for a period of 10 years. Only researchers directly involved in the project will have access to the pseudonymous data. Once the project is completed, the pseudonymised data will be made available to other researchers for scientific purposes.<\/p>\n

You can download further information on our data protection policy\u00a0here<\/a>.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”If I agree to be invited again in 2029 in the questionnaire, will my answers stay anonymous?” style=”round_outline” color=”black” size=”sm” css=””]Your answers are pseudonymised at any time (see: What will happen to my personal data?)<\/p>\n

The Centre des technologies de l\u2019Information de l\u2019\u00c9tat<\/a> (CTIE) has attributed a number to each respondent who was chosen. If you agree to be invited again in 2029 in the questionnaire, that number is used to invite you again. At no point in time, do the researchers at the University of Luxembourg know who is linked to that number.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I do not want to participate in the Youth Survey Luxembourg.

Non-participation does not have any consequences and you do not need to give a reason.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Do you have further questions?” style=”round_outline” color=”black” size=”sm” css=””]Please contact us if you have any further questions.<\/p>\n
