Afrobarometer Round 5 - Findings

Summary of Results

The Afrobarometer is a comparative series of public attitude surveys that will be covering up to 35 African countries in Round 5 (2011-2012). Based on representative national samples, the surveys assess citizen attitudes to democracy and governance, markets, and civil society, among other topics. The first round of surveys was conducted between 1999-2001 and covered seven Southern African countries (, , , , , and ), three countries in West Africa (, and ) and two in East Africa ( and ). Round 2 surveys were completed by November 2003 with four new countries added: , , and . Round 3 surveys were conducted from March 2005 to February 2006 in the same countries, plus and . The 4th Round of surveys covered 20 countries between 2008 and 2009, with the addition of and .

From 20th October to 30th of November of 2011, the Afrobarometer surveyed a nationally representative, random, stratified probability of 2399 South Africans. Face-to- face interviews were conducted in the language of the respondent’s choice by the Afrobarometer team based at Citizens Surveys. The Institute for Democracy in South Africa (Idasa), a Core Partner in the Afrobarometer Network, provided technical backstopping for the survey.

The sample was drawn by taking the smallest geographic units, Enumeration Areas (EAs), and stratifying all EAs across the country into separate lists according to province, geographical area (urban/rural) and race. Six hundred EAs were then randomly selected from these lists with the probability proportionate to its size in the overall population as represented in the 2001 population census and 2011 projections from Stats SA. This ensured that every eligible adult had an equal and known chance of being selected. Four households were then randomly selected within each EA, and a respondent 18 years of age or older was randomly selected from each household. The gender of respondents was alternated during the interviews to ensure equal gender quota.

A sample of this size is sufficient to yield an overall margin of error of +/- 2% at a confidence level of 95%. Below is an outline of the survey findings from all the questions that were posed to respondents. Further, we also present the findings by some critical demographics such as gender, place of residence (urban-rural) and province.
