A rigorous scientific method was employed to generate the target sample for the study. The survey was conducted in 18 states of India, which covered nearly 97 % of the nation‘s population. 40 districts in the country were identified for the purpose of the survey (a little less than 1/10 of the districts in the country: 466 districts as per 1991 census). The 40 districts were spread across the 18 states, in which the survey was conducted keeping in mind the population of the states, even while ensuring that the survey was conducted in at least one district in each of the sampled states1. Within each state, the district/s in which the survey was to be conducted was selected by circular sampling (PPS: Probability Proportion to Size). Once all the 40 districts were selected, the Lok Sabha (Lower House of the Indian Parliament) constituency that covered the district was identified. If the sampled district had more than one Lok Sabha constituency, the one, which had a larger proportion of the district‘s electorate, was selected. The next stage in the sampling process was the selection of 2 State Assembly (Lower House of the State Legislature) constituencies in each of the sampled 40 Lok Sabha constituencies2. Circular Sampling (PPS: Probability Proportion to Size) was once again employed. Thus, 80 Assembly Constituencies in 40 Lok Sabha constituencies (in 40 districts) were selected. Subsequently, a polling booth area in each of the 80 sampled Assembly constituencies was selected by simple circular sampling method. Table 1 1 To ensure the `representativeness` of the sample, the number of respondents selected in each state was in consonnance with the states share in the national population.

  • The World Values Survey in the New Independent States C
    THE WORLD’S LARGEST SOCIAL SCIENCE INFRASTRUCTURE AND ACADEMIC SURVEY RESEARCH PROGRAM: THE WORLD VALUES SURVEY IN THE NEW INDEPENDENT STATES C. Haerpfer1, K. Kizilova2* 1University of Vienna, Austria 2V.N. Karazin Kharkiv National University, Kharkiv, Ukraine The World Values Survey (WVS) is an international research program developed to assess the im- pact of values stability or change over time on the social, political and economic development of countries and societies. It started in 1981 by Ronald Inglehart and his team, since then has involved more than 100 world societies and turned into the largest non-commercial cross-national empirical time-series inves- tigation of human beliefs and values ever executed on a global scale. The article consists of a few sections differing by the focus. The authors begin with the description of survey methodology and organization management that both ensure cross-national and cross-regional comparative character of the study (the survey is implemented using the same questionnaire, a face-to-face mode of interviews, and the same sample type in every country). The next part of the article presents a short overview of the project history and comparative surveys’ time-series (so called “waves” — periods between two and four years long during which collection of data in several dozens of countries using one same questionnaire is taking place; such waves are conducted every five years). Here the authors describe every wave of the WVS mentioning coordination and management activities that were determined by the extension of the project thematically and geographically. After that the authors identify the key features of the WVS in the New Independent States and mention some of the results of the study conducted in NIS countries in 1990—2014, such as high level of uncertainty in the choice of ideological preferences; rapid growth of declared religiosity; ob- served gap between the declared values and actual facts of social life, etc.

  • Exploratory Factor Analysis with the World Values Survey Diana Suhr, Ph.D
    Exploratory Factor Analysis with the World Values Survey Diana Suhr, Ph.D. University of Northern Colorado Abstract Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) investigates the possible underlying factor structure (dimensions) of a set of interrelated variables without imposing a preconceived structure on the outcome (Child, 1990). The World Values Survey (WVS) measures changes in what people want out of life and what they believe. WVS helps a worldwide network of social scientists study changing values and their impact on social and political life. This presentation will explore dimensions of selected WVS items using exploratory factor analysis techniques with SAS® PROC FACTOR. EFA guidelines and SAS code will be illustrated as well as a discussion of results. Introduction Exploratory factor analysis investigates the possible underlying structure of a set of interrelated variables. This paper discusses goals, assumptions and limitations as well as factor extraction methods, criteria to determine factor structure, and SAS code. Examples of EFA are shown using data collected from the World Values Survey. The World Values Survey (WVS) has collected data from over 57 countries since 1990. Data has been collected every 5 years from 1990 to 2010 with each data collection known as a wave. Selected items from the 2005 wave will be examined to investigate the factor structure (dimensions) of values that could impact social and political life across countries. The factor structure will be determined for the total group of participants. Then comparisons of the factor structure will be made between gender and between age groups. Limitations Survey questions were changed from wave to wave. Therefore determining the factor structure for common questions across waves and comparisons between waves was not possible.

  • The Evidence from World Values Survey Data
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive The return of religious Antisemitism? The evidence from World Values Survey data Tausch, Arno Innsbruck University and Corvinus University 17 November 2018 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/90093/ MPRA Paper No. 90093, posted 18 Nov 2018 03:28 UTC The return of religious Antisemitism? The evidence from World Values Survey data Arno Tausch Abstract 1) Background: This paper addresses the return of religious Antisemitism by a multivariate analysis of global opinion data from 28 countries. 2) Methods: For the lack of any available alternative we used the World Values Survey (WVS) Antisemitism study item: rejection of Jewish neighbors. It is closely correlated with the recent ADL-100 Index of Antisemitism for more than 100 countries. To test the combined effects of religion and background variables like gender, age, education, income and life satisfaction on Antisemitism, we applied the full range of multivariate analysis including promax factor analysis and multiple OLS regression. 3) Results: Although religion as such still seems to be connected with the phenomenon of Antisemitism, intervening variables such as restrictive attitudes on gender and the religion-state relationship play an important role. Western Evangelical and Oriental Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism are performing badly on this account, and there is also a clear global North-South divide for these phenomena. 4) Conclusions: Challenging patriarchic gender ideologies and fundamentalist conceptions of the relationship between religion and state, which are important drivers of Antisemitism, will be an important task in the future. Multiculturalism must be aware of prejudice, patriarchy and religious fundamentalism in the global South.

  • Evidence from the Gallup World Poll
    Journal of Economic Perspectives—Volume 22, Number 2—Spring 2008—Pages 53–72 Income, Health, and Well-Being around the World: Evidence from the Gallup World Poll Angus Deaton he great promise of surveys in which people report their own level of life satisfaction is that such surveys might provide a straightforward and easily T collected measure of individual or national well-being that aggregates over the various components of well-being, such as economic status, health, family circumstances, and even human and political rights. Layard (2005) argues force- fully such measures do indeed achieve this end, providing measures of individual and aggregate happiness that should be the only gauges used to evaluate policy and progress. Such a position is in sharp contrast to the more widely accepted view, associated with Sen (1999), which is that human well-being depends on a range of functions and capabilities that enable people to lead a good life, each of which needs to be directly and objectively measured and which cannot, in general, be aggregated into a single summary measure. Which of life’s circumstances are important for life satisfaction, and which—if any—have permanent as opposed to merely transitory effects, has been the subject of lively debate. For economists, who usually assume that higher incomes represent a gain to the satisfaction of individuals, the role of income is of particular interest. It is often argued that income is both relatively unimportant and relatively transi- tory compared with family circumstances, unemployment, or health (for example, Easterlin, 2003). Comparing results from a given country over time, Easterlin (1974, 1995) famously noted that average national happiness does not increase over long spans of time, in spite of large increases in per capita income.

  • Explaining Professed Popular Trust in Zimbabwe's Presidents
    Dispatch No. 399 | 20 October 2020 Fear and trust: Explaining professed popular trust in Zimbabwe’s presidents Afrobarometer Dispatch No. 399 | Simangele Moyo-Nyede Summary Popular trust in public institutions and officials is an important indicator of political legitimacy, a key resource for the development and functioning of modern democracies (Freitag & Bühlmann, 2009; Chingwete, 2016; Mishler & Rose, 2001; Newton, 2001). However, some analysts argue that while trust is important in a democracy, citizens would be naïve if they didn’t have a certain level of distrust as well (van de Walle & Six, 2004). In Zimbabwe, almost two-thirds of Afrobarometer survey respondents in 2017 said they trusted then-President Robert Mugabe “somewhat” or “a lot.” The following year, after Mugabe ended his 37-year rule under pressure from the military, more than half of respondents expressed trust in his successor, President Emmerson Mnangagwa. At the same time, clear majorities said their country was “going in the wrong direction,” assessed the national economic situation as bad, rated the government’s performance on the economy as poor, and said they did not feel free to criticize the president. As they had for years, headlines portrayed a country contending with a ruined economy, a collapsing health care system, high unemployment and corruption, and poor public services (Pindula News, 2018; Muronzi, 2020). This raises the question: How can citizens who see their country as “going in the wrong direction” express trust in the person leading it there? Do substantial numbers of Zimbabweans really trust their president? If so, what drives this trust? An analysis of Afrobarometer survey data from 2017 and 2018 – during Mugabe’s last year in office and Mnangagwa’s first – suggests that in addition to any number of possible reasons that Zimbabweans may have had for trusting their president, fear of appearing anti- government was one factor contributing to high levels of professed trust.

The sets of weights application of observed age-specific rates to a standard age provided in this paper use the age groupings most commonly distribution to eliminate differences in crude rates in found in existing DHHS publications. Age-adjustment populations of interest that result from differences in the weights, as well as examples of computer codes appropriate populations’ age distributions. This adjustment is usually for calculating age-adjusted rates for complex sample done when comparing two or more populations at one point surveys using the SUDAAN7 software package, are provided in time or one population at two or more points in time.

  • The Infrastructure of Public Opinion Research in Japan Yuichi Kubota University of Niigata Prefecture, Japan
    Asian Journal for Public Opinion Research _ISSN 2288-6168 (Online) 42 Vol. 1 No. 1 November 2013 The Infrastructure of Public Opinion Research in Japan Yuichi Kubota University of Niigata Prefecture, Japan Abstract This article introduces the infrastructure of public opinion research in Japan by reviewing the development of polling organizations and the current situation of social surveys. In Japan, the polling infrastructure developed through the direction and encouragement of the U.S. occupation authorities. In the early 1969s, however, survey researchers began to conduct their own original polls in not only domestic but also cross-national contexts. An exploration of recent survey trends reveals that polling organizations tended to conduct more surveys during summer, in the mid-range of sample size (1,000-2,999), based on random sampling (response rates of 40–50%), and through the mail between April 2011 and March 2012. The media was the most active polling sector. Keywords Public Opinion Research, Survey Modes, Response Rates, Japan Asian Journal for Public Opinion Research _ISSN 2288-6168 (Online) 43 Vol. 1 No. 1 November 2013 Introduction The purpose of this article is to introduce the infrastructure of public opinion research in Japan. The importance of public opinion surveys/polls is increasing because society is changing faster today than in the past. For the last several decades, surveys have been useful tools for both social scientists and practitioners who sought to capture people’s changing values and norms. Japan is not exceptional. Public opinion research was practically initiated in the country after the end of the World War II.
