The panel spans a decade of major political change, including the financial crisis, austerity protests, the rise of populism, and COVID-19. In Spain, it captures events such as 15M, significant party system change, corruption scandals, the Catalan independence bid, and feminist mobilization.

POLAT focuses primarily on political variables, offering a broad range of indicators of attitudes and behaviors.
