title: WABC-TV New York State Primary Poll, March 1992
title: Version 1

description: For this survey, residents of New York State were asked to rate the performance of President Bush and the United States Congress and to identify the most important problem that faced New York State from a list that included items such as abortion, AIDS, taxes, health care, and unemployment. Respondents were also asked to describe their feelings about the way the government in New York State worked, to register their approval or disapproval of Governor Mario Cuomo and Senator Alfonse D'Amato, to rate the condition of the state economy, and to indicate whether Cuomo, the state legislature, or the government in Washington was most responsible for the condition of the state's economy. Further questions pertaining to Cuomo and D'Amato asked respondents whether they would vote for Cuomo in 1994 if he ran for governor again, and whether D'Amato had the honesty and integrity to serve effectively as a United States senator. Regarding the field of New York State candidates in the United States Senate race, respondents were asked if there was anyone they would never consider voting for under any circumstances. Concerning the 1992 presidential race, those surveyed indicated whether they were satisfied with the candidates, whom they would like to see enter the race, whether they had favorable impressions of George Bush, Paul Tsongas, Bill Clinton, Jerry Brown, and Cuomo, and whether Bush, Clinton, and Brown had the honesty and integrity to serve effectively as president. In addition, respondents were asked for whom they would vote if the election were held at the time of the interview. Questions directed at residents of New York City asked respondents if they had noticed an increase in race-related tension in their dealings with people of other races, whether various public figures and institutions such as David Dinkins, Al Sharpton, and the New York City Police Department had helped race relations, and whether Leona Helmsley should go to prison. Background information on respondents includes political alignment, voter registration status, most recent presidential vote choice, age, Hispanic origin, race, household income, and sex.

title: Survey of Pension Providers, 1983:[United States]
title: Version 1

description: A major objective of this study was to identify and to quantify pension plan provisions and benefit formulas using a standard format. The overall research design for the study was based on the SURVEY OF CONSUMER FINANCES, 1983 (ICPSR 9751), which assessed the financial status of American households using a "balance-sheet" approach. This approach permits a systematic investigation of the various types of assets and liabilities held by households, with each component monetized at its current market value. Detailed information was collected on household savings and wealth, including the amount and types of financial and nonfinancial investments and liabilities, as well as entitlements to private and public pension benefits. Pension plan providers were identified and then contacted for information about their plans. Pension plan variables include actual service years, potential service years, final average pay, Social Security offset, mandatory contributions by participants, employer matching of mandatory contributions, potential voluntary contributions by participants, employer matching of voluntary contributions, employer contributions to pension plan, employer contributions to participants, and lump-sum contributions at retirement. Pension eligibility requirement variables include required age and service, other requirements, date restrictions, when payments begin, and length of payment period. Household and individual variables cover date of birth, date hired, age hired, date terminated employment, age terminated employment, date retirement benefits begin, age retirement benefits begin, date at death, age at death, probability of retirement circumstance, participant's special qualifications, hours worked per year, rate of pay per year, and participant's voluntary contributions.

title: National Election Studies Method Comparison Project, 1982
title: Version 2

description: This study is part of a time-series collection of national surveys fielded continuously since 1952. The 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. In early 1982, the National Election Studies obtained additional support from the National Science Foundation for a systematic study comparing survey data collected through traditional methods (household sampling and personal interviewing) with data collected by random-digit dial (RDD) telephone sampling using computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI). This study took place in conjunction with the previously funded 1982 National Election Study of congressional elections. The broad purposes of the data collection were to permit the NES staff and user community to assess overall differences between the two data collection techniques in sample and measurement quality, and to carry out a series of additional methodological experiments concerned with question format, computer-assisted procedures, and survey organization. Telephone respondents were administered a somewhat abbreviated version of the in-person interview schedules, adapted for use over the telephone where appropriate. All interviews were conducted in the three months following the 1982 elections. In this collection, data from the Methods Comparison Project have been merged with AMERICAN NATIONAL ELECTION STUDY, 1982: POST-ELECTION SURVEY FILE (ICPSR 9042), in order to facilitate the work of those who wish to make comparisons of telephone and personal interview methods. The inclusion of personal interview data in the present dataset is not intended for substantive analytic use. An extensive introduction to the documentation provides essential information and cautionary notes for potential analysts.

title: British Crime Surveys, 1984
title: Version 1

description: In 1982 the Home Office conducted the first British Crime Survey, a major study with the aim of discovering levels of victimization in Britain, and of producing attitudinal data on issues relating to crime. The survey was repeated in 1984 and was restricted to England and Wales, whereas the previous study had included Scotland. The survey set out to replicate the previous one as far as possible. Other than questions having to do with victimization and basic demographic details, the topics covered in the questionnaire were: general opinion of the local area, fear of crime and precautions taken, likelihood of crime occurring, extent of "incivilities" in the area, seriousness of various crimes, attitudes towards punishment and prison reform, victim support schemes, neighborhood watch schemes, and self-reported offending.
