title: ABC News Bush National Intelligence Poll, May 2002
title: Archival Version

description: This special topic poll was undertaken to assess respondents reactions to and feelings about intelligence reports regarding terrorist threats on the United States before and after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, DC. Respondents were asked to give their views of President George W. Bush, his handling of the presidency, and the United States campaign against terrorism. Those polled also expressed their level of confidence in the government's ability to prevent further terrorist attacks against Americans in the United States. Respondents' opinions were elicited on the actions the government took or could have taken to prevent the September 11 terrorist attacks, and to prevent further terrorist attacks. In addition, respondents were queried about their knowledge of past news stories regarding intelligence reports, and they also gave their opinions on the Bush administration's follow-up on those intelligence reports. Other questions focused on the Federal Bureau of Investigation's response to a proposed investigation of Arabs taking flight-school training in the United States, and the United States Congress's investigation of the Bush administration's knowledge of terrorist threats before September 11, 2001, and its handling of that knowledge. Background information includes respondents' political affiliation, education, age, race, and gender.

title: Health Insurance Coverage Among Working Latinos in California, 2001
title: Archival Version

description: To learn why Latinos often lack health insurance in California, this survey interviewed a sample of employed Hispanics in that state. Respondents were interviewed about their health status, health insurance coverage, access to health care, and health care utilization. For insured respondents, the survey measured satisfaction with one's current health plan and collected information on the plan type, length of coverage with the plan, and the plan's co-pays and deductibles. Uninsured respondents were asked why they did not have health insurance, if they had tried to obtain insurance in the past year, how long it was since they last had coverage, whether or not their employer offered health insurance, and what they would expect to pay for it. Additionally, the survey gauged attitudes regarding control of one's fate, acceptability of community and free-care clinics as sources for care, the desirability of getting regular check-ups, and health insurance as a good versus a bad value for the money. Demographic and socioeconomic characteristics collected by the survey include age, sex, household size, educational attainment, religious preference, county of birth, ancestry, citizenship, number of years in the United States, ability to speak English, income, number of jobs held, size of employer (number of employees), length of time at job, industry, occupation, and labor union membership.

description: 919 probate inventories issued mainly between 1773 and 1775 for decedents from 21 United States colonial counties. Smallest Geographic Unit: county
description: The sample design aimed to ensure representativeness. Contiguous counties were grouped into units of approximately 20,000 wealth-holders, out of which a representative county was drawn based on the number of wealth-holders in each county. The cases in the sample were then weighted, first to reflect the age distribution of the total population, and then to take into account those individuals who did not have their estates probated.
