Description

This variable gives the occupational prestige score developed by Wegener (1988) for all employed persons. Like the SIOPS prestige sore, Wegener's prestige scala measures a person's occupational prestige and was developed especially for use in Germany. MPS is assigned based on the German Federal Statistical Office's occupational classification of 1992 (KldB 92). The procedure has been documented in Frietsch and Wirth (2001).

Also available: occupational prestige scores (SIOPS, ISEI) and occupational class (EGP).
