        -------------------------------
        
        Observa har fra 1967 gennemført undersøgelser af holdninger og livsvaner, dels gennem såkaldte prøvevalg (postale valgpanelsundersøgelser) dels gennem mere omfattende interviewbaserede indstillingsundersøgelser. Prøvevalgsundersøgelserne er foretaget jævnligt i hele perioden (ca. 10 gange hvert år), medens indstillingsundersøgelserne kun blev foretaget kvartalsvist i årene 1969 til 1972. Det lange tidsrum med jævnligt indsamlede, ensartede datamaterialer giver muligheder for forskellige tidsserieanalyser, især hvad angår partipræferencer. Andre emner er sædvanligvis mere flygtigt behandlede pga. de vilkår, hvorunder undersøgelserne er foretaget (de er tilrettelagt med offentliggørelse i dagspressen for øje, det dagsaktuelle har været betonet, og emnerne er begrænset til problemkredse, der lader sig beskrive med et mindre antal spørgsmål). Prøvevalgene gennemførtes indtil udgangen af 1971 for dagbladet Aktuelt og fra 1972 for Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten. Indstillingsundersøgelserne blev udelukkende gennemført for Jyllands-Posten.

description: #Observa opinion polls:     #----------------------     #From 1967 and onwards Observa has carried out a number of opinion polls, i.e. surveys of attitudes and habits of life, partly through so-called political index polls (postal panel surveys) and partly through more extensive attitudinal surveys based on interviews. The political index polls have been carried out regularly in the period (approx. 10 times a year), whereas the attitudinal surveys have been carried out quarterly in the period 1969 to 1972. The current data collection of similar data material over a long period of time makes it possible to carry out various kinds of time series analyses, especially as regards party preference.     #Other subjects are usually treated more superficially owing to the conditions under which the surveys are carried out (they are designed for publication in daily papers so the main emphasis has been put on topical issues, and only subjects which may be dealt with by means of a limited number of questions are included).     #Until 1971 the political index polls were carried out for the daily paper Aktuelt; from 1972 for the daily paper Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten. The attitudinal surveys have been carried out exclusively for Jyllands-Posten.     #     #Observa Political Index Polls, 1969:     #------------------------------------     #In 1969 Observa carried out 7 political index polls. All the questions from these surveys, together with a fixed set of recurring background variables (the respondent's sex, year of birth, marital status and position in the household; geographical location of place of residence (part of the country and county) and degree of urbanization as well as type and ownership of the dwelling; the respondent's ecucation, occupational status, designation of occupation and trade union membership), are found in the 'year file' (this survey). In addition, the individual political index polls, which contain various questions on topical issues, are found in DDA-0882, DDA-0884 and DDA-0887. (The DDA has not received any data from the January survey).     #     #The individual political index polls deal with the following topical issues:     #     #Observa Political Index Polls 1969: March-May (DDA-0882):     #March:     #Assessment of the Government's performance; assessment of the performance of the opposition; amendments to the Pregnancy Act (legalisation of abortion); how the respondent would spend 15,000 D. Kr.; summer holiday plans; and attitude to abolition of compulsory military service (and transition to a professional army).     #May:     #Assessment of the Government's performance; assessment of the performance of the opposition; the Shops Acts; forms of address (the deferential 'De' versus the familiar 'du'); motor vehicle in household; the legislation on drunken driving; the automatic admission to the National Church; and Danish membership of NATO.     #     #Observa Political Index Polls 1969: June-October (DDA-0884):     #June:     #Assessment of the Government's performance; assessment of the performance of the opposition; the referendum on the lowering of the electoral age to 18 on 24 June, 1969; TV in household; and TV programmes watched.     #     #August:     #Assessment of the Government's performance; assessment of the performance of the opposition; general speed restrictions; Danish participation in the European Athletics Championship in Greece in September 1969; and the contribution of the USA and the USSR to world peace.     #     #October:     #Assessment of the Government's performance; assessment of the performance of the opposition; Denmark's recognition of North Vietnam; gainful employment; working hours; consumption taxes and personal taxes; the closing down of the health insurance societies; and the municipal health care administrative departments.     #     #Observa Political Index Polls 1969: November (DDA-0887):     #Assessment of the Government's performance; assessment of the performance of the opposition; the impact of the P.A.Y.E. tax system on one's financial situation; Christmas present expenditure; the development in Denmark in the 1960s; the development in Denmark in the 1970s; the local election on 8 March, 1966; the local election on 3 March, 1970; and local politics
