2013 March

Abstract
TILCOM systematically tracks economic expectations, emotional responses
to economic developments, and consumption coping in response to economic
developments. TILCOM furthermore relates this to specific topical themes.
The TILCOM survey is conducted each quarter among members of the LISS panel. The panel is divided into three groups, and for every measurement, two of these groups are interviewed. This means that each panel member will be presented a maximum of three TILCOM questionnaires per year.
This codebook describes the fifteenth TILCOM measurement, conducted in March 2013.
