title: Political Participation and Equality in Seven Nations, 1966-1971
title: Version 1

description: This data collection is composed of seven files: six individual country datasets (Austria, India, Japan, Netherlands, Nigeria, and Yugoslavia) and a comparative cross-national dataset. The study resulted from data collected for the collaborative project "Cross-National Program in Political and Social Change" in seven nations conducted primarily by Sidney Verba, Norman H. Nie, and Jae-On Kim. This survey was designed to deal comprehensively with one aspect of the larger study: to ascertain the ways citizens participate politically in local and national affairs and the processes that lead them to do so. Personal interviews were conducted from 1966 to 1971 in seven nations, including the United States. The United States dataset can be found separately in the collection, POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN AMERICA, 1967 [ICPSR 7015], and is included in the Cross-National file (Part 7). Questions were asked to measure respondents' involvement in political organizations at both the local and national levels, participation in formal and informal community groups, the extent of individual contact with public officials, attitudes toward recent political and social changes, and interest in the political process. Demographic items specify age, sex, marital status, occupation, household composition, length of stay in community, size of community, education, home ownership, family income, political party identification, religion, race, union membership, position in union, and reason for joining union.

description: Sampling procedures varied by nation. In general, a national representative sample of a cross-section of the citizens in each nation was generated. Also generated was a set of mini-community samples for 60-100 communities, a sample of elites for each of these communities, and numerous types of information on the demography and structure of each of the communities. In Austria, Japan, the Netherlands, and the United States, the cross-section samples are representative of the entire nation. In the other three nations, India, Yugoslavia, and Nigeria, the samples pertain to specified sub-national regions. In all nations, except the U.S., the cross-section samples are multi-staged area probability samples to the level of the individual. The U.S. sample is a multi-staged area probability sample to the block level, with block quota techniques employed for the final selection of respondents.

title: National Hunting and Fishing Survey, 1975
title: Version 1

description: This dataset contains survey data from the second phase of a two-phase study of the use and enjoyment of hunting, fishing, and associated wildlife recreation resources in the United States in 1975. The data were taken from a mailback survey of 20,211 individuals in each of the United States. Survey recipients were 9 years of age and older and identified as hunters and/or fishermen. Approximately 450 variables measure the respondents' activities and expenditures in the areas of hunting and fishing, e.g., amount of time spent hunting and fishing, type of game and fish sought, problems associated with the activities, and money spent on various aspects of the activities. There are also several demographic variables, e.g., age, gender, income, and state of residence. The first phase of this study, which is captured in the dataset WILDLIFE RECREATION SURVEY, 1975 (ICPSR 7787), contains data from a telephone survey of United States residents which asked more general questions about wildlife recreation resource usage. From that survey, the sample of hunters and fishermen was identified for use in this study.

description: Sampling for this study took place in two primary phases: a telephone sample (ICPSR 7787) and a mail sample selected from the telephone respondents. (1) A probability sample of telephone exchanges in each of the 50 United States was drawn and then distributed throughout each state. Depending on the proportion of the metro/non-metro residents, the number of metro to non-metro telephone exchanges was selected on a 1:1 (nine states), 1:3 (seven states), or 1:2 (all other states) ratio, in order to enhance the possibility of identifying more hunters and fishermen for the follow-up mail survey phase. Then a systematic random sample was drawn from all the four-digit numbers within the random banks of all sample exchanges. The subsequent seven-digit telephone numbers were then randomized within each state. A sufficient number of private-household telephone numbers was generated to allow the completion of approximately 2,000 household telephone interviews per state (with some exceptions), for a total of 106,294 households. (2) Hunters and fishermen identified in the telephone sample were subsampled (in ways intended to maximize the amount of information obtained from each questionnaire mailed out) to select individuals 9 years of age and older who hunted and/or fished in 1975. In each state (with some exceptions) 1,000 such individuals were mailed questionnaires.

title: Minor American National Election Study, 1960
title: Version 2

description: This study is part of a time-series collection of national surveys fielded continuously since 1952. The American National Election Studies are designed to present data on Americans' social backgrounds, enduring political predispositions, social and political values, perceptions and evaluations of groups and candidates, opinions on questions of public policy, and participation in political life. This data collection is a subset of a larger survey conducted by the Economic Behavior Program of the Survey Research Center (AMERICAN NATIONAL ELECTION STUDY, 1960 [ICPSR 7216]) and includes only a limited number of items pertaining to political behavior, with the major focus on attitudinal questions designed to measure consumer optimism and confidence.

title: CBS News/New York Times O.J. Simpson Jury Selection Poll, September 1994
title: Version 3

description: This special topic survey consists of responses to a survey of residents in Los Angeles regarding the O.J. Simpson jury selection process. Respondents were asked whether they received a summons to appear for jury duty at the Los Angeles Superior Court on September 26, 1994, and how closely they followed the news coverage of O.J. Simpson and the murders of his ex-wife Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman. Specific questions included whether Simpson could get a fair trial in Los Angeles, whether the respondent had formed any opinions on the case, and whether the respondent, if appointed a juror, would have any difficulty in basing a judgment solely on evidence presented at the trial. Opinions were sought on the prosecution's and defense's strongest piece of information, the Los Angeles Police Department, the Los Angeles District Attorney's office, and the validity of DNA and other scientific testimony. Other topics included opinions on the criminal justice system and police officers in Los Angeles, with specific focus on possible biases against Blacks. Background information includes voter registration status, household composition, vote choice in the 1992 presidential election, political party, political orientation, education, age, sex, race, religious preference, and family income.

title: Youth-Parent Socialization Panel Study, 1965-1973
title: Version 2

description: This study has two parts: a youth panel and a parent panel. High school students and their parents were interviewed in 1965 and reinterviewed in 1973. The panel study is designed to assess political continuity and change across time for two biologically-related generations and to explore life cycle, generational, and period effects. Analysis can be performed at the aggregate as well as the individual level. Because the two samples come from the same families, parent-offspring pairs can be formed (by matching I.D. numbers). At the core of the study are a number of standard political variables available at both time points. The 1973 wave includes a number of questions that capture the political and non-political histories of the respondent across the eight-year panel period. Also included in the 1973 data are a large number of variables dealing with perspectives on public policy issues. The 1965 youth wave schedule contains detailed questions about high school experiences, and both the youth and parental schedules treat familial relationships.

title: CBS News/New York Times Monthly Poll, November 1994
title: Version 3

description: This poll is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. Respondents were asked whether they approved of Bill Clinton's handling of his job as president and whether he had tried to move the country in the right or the wrong direction. Opinions were sought on Clinton, Bob Dole, Al Gore, Newt Gingrich, Al D'Amato, Jesse Helms, and Hillary Rodham Clinton. Respondents were asked to provide their reactions to the outcome of the November 1994 elections for Congress, to give their opinions on the Republican and Democratic parties, and to forecast whether Congress would accomplish more or less in the next two years on topics such as the Republicans' "Contract with America," the balanced budget amendment, welfare, and health care. Additional areas explored included the situation in Bosnia, Bill Clinton's handling of the situation, and the need for sending in ground troops to try to end the fighting. Background information includes voter registration status, household composition, vote choice in the 1992 presidential election, political party, political orientation, education, age, sex, race, religious preference, and family income.
