description: Panelundersøgelsen af valgene 1971 og 1973 kombinerer For- og eftervalgsundersøgelsen 1971 (DDA-0007) og Valgundersøgelsen 1973 (DDA-0008), idet den indeholder alle variable fra de to studier for de respondenter, der deltog i dem begge.For- og eftervalgsundersøgelsen 1971 er en panelundersøgelse i to bølger omkring folketingsvalget d. 21/9 1971. Første bølge stammer fra august 1971, før valgets udskrivelse, og indeholder spørgsmål til belysning af folks synspunkter, interesser og vaner i en politisk normal situation. Der er spørgsmål om IP''s interesser generelt of politiske interesser specielt, og om informationsmedier i forbindelse med disse interesser; spørgsmål om avislæsetid, fjernseertid og radiolyttetid og specielle interesseområder i den forbindelse; holdningsspørgsmål i forbindelse med en lang række aktuelle problemer, herunder specielt spørgsmål om IP''s holdning til EF; og spørgsmål om IP''s fornemmelse af forskellige partiers tilknytning til bestemte befolkningsgrupper, og om IP''s prioritering af partierne.Anden bølge stammer fra oktober 1971 og indeholder spørgsmål til belysning af beslutningsprocessen og påvirkningerne i selve valgsituationen. Der er spørgsmål om IP''s politiske interessefelter og det/de bedste informationsmedier i den forbindelse; spørgsmål til afdækning af i hvor høj grad IP har fulgt valgkampen i radio, TV og aviser mm. og har deltaget i politiske diskussioner i sin omgangskreds; spørgsmål om IP''s deltagelse/manglende deltagelse i tidligere valg og om evt. partiskift; holdningsspørgsmål i forbindelse med mogle aktuelle problemer, specielt politik og IP''s egen rolle heri, samt EF; og spørgsmål on IP''s sympati for/antipati mod en række partier, befolkningsgrupper og enkeltpolitikere.Valgundersøgelsen 1973 blev foretaget efter folketingsvalget d. 4/12 1973 og udgør panelundersøgelsens tredie bølge, idet respondenterne udgjorde en delmængde af respondenterne i de første to bølger.Undersøgelsen indeholder spørgsmål om, hvilke problemer IP mener først og fremmest bør løses, og om hvilket parti IP mener vil gøre noget for det; spørgsmål om IP''s interesse i valgkampen i massemedierne, om IP''s diskussionsaktivitet i forbindelse med valgkampen og om IP''s politiske interesse i almindelighed; spørgsmål om IP''s prioritering af en række mulige spareområder og af hvilke områder, der bør holdes udenfor besparelser; spørgsmål om, hvor IP mener, at eventuelle skattenedsættelser eller skatteforhøjelser bør lægges; spørgsmål om IP''s holdning til en række aktuelle problemer, herunder IP''s holdning til politik og EF; spørgsmål omkring beslutningsprocessen i forbindelse med partivalg, IP''s præference for og evt. tilhørsforhold til et parti, samt spørgsmål om IP''s placering af partierne og de ledende politikere på et ''sympatitermometer''
description: The Danish Panel Election Study 1971 and 1973 is a combination of data material from DDA-0007: Danish Pre- and Post-Election Study 1971 and DDA-0008: Danish Election Study 1973 containing all the variables from the two studies for the respondents who participated in both studies.     #A) The Danish Pre- and Post-Election Study 1971 is a two-wave panel study, which was carried out in connection with the general election on 21 September, 1971.     #The first wave, which was carried out in August 1971, before the writs of the election were issued, examines the views, interests and habits of the population in a politically 'normal' situation. The first wave contains questions about the respondent's interests in general and political interest in particular and sources of information used in connection with these interests; time spent on reading newspapers, watching TV and listening to the radio, as well as special areas of interest in connection with these activities; attitudes to a large number of current problems, in particular the respondent's attitude to the EC; and, finally, the respondent's rating of the political parties in Denmark with a personal assessment of each political party's affiliation to specific social groups.     #The second wave, which was carried out in October 1971, examines the decision-making process and the factors influencing the respondent. The second wave contains questions about the respondent's political interest and the respondent's preferences as regards sources of information (i.e. media) in connection with the respondent's political interest; the degree to which the respondent has been interested in the election campaign on the radio, on TV and in the newspapers, etc., as well as the respondent's participation in political discussions with friends and acquaintances; the respondent's participation, or non-participation, in previous elections, possible affiliation to one political party and party changes, if any; attitudes to currrent political problems, in particular political problems, and the respondent's personal part in politics, as well as the respondent's attitude to the EC; and, finally, the respondent's rating of the political parties in Denmark and the respondent's attitude (sympathy/dislike) to a number of social groups and politicians.     #B) The Danish Election Study 1973 was carried out after the general election on 4 December, 1973, and was based on interviews with some of the respondents from the Danish Pre- and Post-Election Study 1971 (see DDA-0007), which means that it constitutes the third wave of the panel study. In this third wave the respondent is asked to name the problems she/he finds it most important for the politicians to solve and to name the party she/he believes will do something to solve these problems; furthermore, the study contains questions about the respondent's interest in the election campaign as it is covered in the mass media; the respondents's participation in discussions in connection with the election campaigns and the respondent's political interest in general; the respondent is asked to put in order of priority a number of possible retrenchment sectors and to indicate the sectors in which cuts should not be made in public expenditure; the respondent's attitude to tax deductions and tax increases; attitude to a number of current issues, including political issues and the EC; the decision-making process in connection with party choice on the part of the respondent; the respondent's party preference and affiliation to a political party, if any; and, finally, the respondent's rating of political parties and leading politicians on a so-called 'feeling thermometer'
