title: Environics Corporate Social Responsibility Monitor, 2002

description: Environics Corporate Social Responsibility Monitor 2002 is a survey of global public opinion on the role of companies in society. This survey is based on the results of face-to-face or telephone surveys with representative samples of about 1,000 citizens in each of 25 countries on six continents at varying stages of development. The report tracks some of the questions asked in the 1999 Millennium Poll on Corporate Social Responsibility and the 2001 Corporate Social Responsibility Monitor. Research was carried out by respected social research institutes in each country between October and December 2001. The survey was fielded after September 11 in each country. Media focus on the Enron Corp. did not begin until the survey was completed in the USA.

<b>Opinion Leader Typology</b>
While the views of the general population are critical, it is also instructive to understand the views of those individuals within the general population who tend to influence others. These Opinion Leaders often have more impact on general public views than do the formal leaders of a society. Environics International has developed a proprietary Opinion Leader typology based on an analysis of responses to a bank of questions fielded to all respondents of our global surveys. The bank includes strength-of-personality questions, self-reported measures of issues engagement, and questions aimed at identifying individuals who have formal leadership positions or speak in public. Scores on these questions are summed to create an opinion leadership scale. Individuals who score within the top 15 percent of their country's sample are labeled Opinion Leaders. The views of Opinion Leaders are compared with those of the general population.

<b>Figures, Charts, and Tables</b>

In the case of stacked bar charts, white space typically represents the portion of respondents who either answered "don't know" or did not answer at all. DK/NA means "don't know" or did not answer at all.
