Introduction:
In 2010, Estonia, Hungary, Portugal and Slovenia joined SHARE Wave 4, which is the third regular panel wave of the survey following the SHARELIFE life history questionnaire. The scientific use file has been released in November 2012, including a brand new social network module based on a name generator approach – making SHARE the very first international survey to provide social network information in a detailed and comparative way.
