Comparative Analysis of Social Mobility in Industrial Nations (CASMIN)
Comparative Analysis of Social Mobility in Industrial Nations (CASMIN)
The Comparative Analysis of Social Mobility in Industrial Nations (CASMIN) was developed in the 1980s in the course of a research project on social mobility (cf. Lechert et al. 2006: 3).
The scale was designed on the basis of the following criteria:
1.) the hierarchy of an education system (measured by the length and corresponding investment required in an education as well as the quality of the achieved certificate),
2.) the distinction between rather general and rather occupation-specific education (cf. König et al. 1988: 55).
