Sisällön kuvaus

The Student Feedback Survey, collected every academic year, charts student experiences of studying in a university. The national survey is sent to all students who have completed their Bachelor's degree or studied for three years in a field where Bachelor's degrees are not awarded. Themes of the survey include, among others, progress with studies, financing of studies, well-being, and balance between studies and other aspects of life.

With regard to financing of studies, the respondents were asked about paid work done during studies and their means of financing studies (e.g. student grant, student loan, wages) as well as their financial circumstances at the time of the survey. Extra-curricular activities and participation in the activities of a student association were surveyed.

Experiences of studies were examined with statements relating to the quality of education and teaching and support received in studies. Satisfaction with studies, life in general, family life, and friends was charted as well as own performance in studies. The respondents were presented several statements about, for instance, the guidance provided by their university, group work, course requirements, study progress, ability to study, professional goals, health and well-being, social life, and personality traits. The universities were also able to add university-specific questions to the survey, which charted primarily the same themes as the main survey and additional background information.

Background variables included the respondent's university, field of study, age, and gender. Some of the background variables are specific to individual universities (e.g. the respondent's degree programme, major subject or faculty).

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa

The dataset contains the data collected during both collection rounds, in the autumn and spring, which differed somewhat from each other. Because the variables were numbered according to the combined data during the archiving process, the numbering of the variables in the archived data may slightly differ from the numbering on the original questionnaire. Additionally, the wording of some of the questions varies somewhat depending on when the data were collected. During the archiving, questions and background variables specific to individual universities were renamed to include an abbreviation referring to the name of the university and a running number. The abbreviations have been added in brackets after the name of each university in variable yo (university). Response scales in questions q24_2, q24_5, q24_8, q24_9, q24_13, q24_14, q24_16, q24_17, q24_21, q24_33, q24_35, q24_37, q24_43, q24_44, q24_53, q24_55, q24_56, q24_57, q24_62, q24_65 and q24_68 were inverted at FSD because they appeared to be erroneous. Due to insufficient documentation of the original variables, there is no certainty of their validity.

Variables containing very detailed information on the respondents and their major subjects were removed from the data during archiving. In addition, the age variable was divided into categories and the open-ended responses to q6 as well as the responses to comment section at the end of the survey were removed.
