Abstract:

This wiki supplies information and links to related materials for the Standard Cross-Cultural Sample. The Standard Cross-Cultural Sample, or SCCS, is a cumulative and collaborative database of coded variables on maximally diverse and ethnographically best-described societies used by scholars in the social sciences. The SCCS was designed by George Peter Murdock and Douglas White with the goal of representing the cultural diversity of 186 well-described human societies. This sample is designed to be sufficiently large to test multivariate and competing hypotheses and sufficiently small to allow different investigators to code all the cases and so contribute to a cumulative database. It contains more than 2,000 variables contributed by nearly a hundred different studies.
