title: Research and Information Requirements for Coastal Zone Management, Australia, 1993

description: The study examines the coastal managers' communication systems within and between six types of organisation (Local, State and Commonwealth Government, conservation, industry and academic organisations) and six areas of work (management, environment, education, industry/finance, engineering, and elected office). The survey asked participants to consider types of information that are most important to their work, and the availability of these information types. Participants were also asked to indicate at what scale (ie local, regional, State or National) this information is used. Other survey questions asked respondents to identify those areas in which they perceive the greatest gaps in the information necessary to their work, and how they believe these gaps could best be filled. The survey also asked managers to indicate how often they employ particular information resources and channels, and which of these they would recommend as the most important for the future management of coastal areas. Background variables include: age; sex; highest education qualification; main work area; name and location of work organisation; and information provider/user status.

title: Australian Tax System - Fair or Not Survey, 2002

description: The Australian Tax System - Fair or Not Survey (ATSFONS 2002) was designed as a follow-up survey to the Community Hopes, Fears and Actions Survey (CHFAS 2000) conducted in 2000. The ATSFONS 2002 was sent to all those who had returned CHFAS 2000 questionnaires, to a sample of those who had not replied to the CHFAS 2000 and who had not made contact with us, and to a new random sample of Australian citizens. The purpose of sending the ATSFONS 2002 to these three different groups was to check the representativeness of the sample. Results of these comparisons are presented in this paper and show some biases, although none are considered dramatic enough to undermine the usefulness of the data for detecting relationships among major variables of interest. Also presented in this working paper are some key findings relating to attitude and behaviour change over the first 18 months of the GST. In addition the paper introduces the reader to some new variables measured in the ATSFONS 2002 that tap into reactions to the GST, views on different methods of taxation, the community’s tax morale, and finally, trust in the Tax Office compared with other institutions. Background variables include gender, age, country of birth, marital status, and employment status.

title: How Fair, How Effective Survey, 2005

description: The How Fair, How Effective Survey – The Collection and Use of Taxation in Australia (HFHES 2005) was designed as a follow-up survey to the Community Hopes, Fears and Actions Survey (CHFAS 2000) conducted in 2000 and the Australian Tax System – Fair or Not Survey (ATSFONS 2002) conducted in 2002. This set of panel data provides information on Australians’ views of the tax system and its administration that have prevailed in the first 5 years of tax reform. The review shows most Australians expressing high levels of tax morale in so far as they were committed to the idea that everyone should pay their taxes honestly. They took pride in being an honest taxpayer, and their preference was for a tax agent who would do their tax for them honestly and without fuss. There was less overwhelming support, however, for the administration of the tax system and the use of tax dollars. Over the period of the research, there seemed to be an upward trend in interest in financial planning in order to reduce tax. The gap that is developing between Australians’ aspirations for the tax system and actual outcomes presents a challenge for the Tax Office if it wants a sustainable voluntary taxpaying system that involves the general community. Background variables include gender, age, country of birth, marital status, and employment status.

title: Mapping the Impact of the 1995 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Protocols for Libraries, Archives and Information Services

description: A national survey of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Protocols for Libraries, Archives and Information Services (Byrne, Garwood, Moorcroft, and Barnes, 1995) in Australian libraries, followed by case studies in a select number of libraries. This project concerns a series of good practice protocols by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Library and Information Resources Network (ATSILIRN) in 1995. The Protocols were developed to guide libraries, archives, and information services to: • Interact with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the communities which the organisations serve, and • Handle materials with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander content. A literature search indicates that a number of organisations (both LIS and non-LIS based) refer to the protocols but there is no evidence of any research conducted into the relevance and application of the protocols at an institutional level. A research team at the University of Technology Sydney, endorsed by ATSILIRN, conducted a study into the practical implementation of the protocols across Australia. All relevant library, archive and information service institutions were invited to take part in a national survey. The researchers will follow this up with a study of innovative or exemplary practices to further assist institutions in applying the protocols. It is anticipated that the research will be used to compile a number of reports covering but not limited to: • Relevance of the protocols at local, regional and national institutions • Issues and concerns of institutions relating to Indigenous issues. Papers are also planned for national and international conferences with the aim of enlisting support for a consistent approach to Indigenous materials held in libraries, archives and information services.

title: Social Structure of Australia Project, 1986

description: The general aim of this study was to investigate contemporary Australian class structure. As part of this general aim, the study also sought to provide a profile of the class structure of contemporary Australian society in relational terms; relate the class model to a number of specific variables in the area of ideology and political participation; examine the differential nature of men's and women's access to, orientations toward and positions in the labour process; and to provide the Australian component of a major international comparative project on class structure in a number of advanced industrial societies. Two questionnaires were employed: a Workforce Questionnaire which was administered by personal interview, and a separate attitude questionnaire which the respondent completed alone. The Workforce Questionnaire consisted of several sections. The first section, Current Occupation and Employment, asked detailed questions about current job, industry sector, employment status, promotion and seniority, educational qualifications required, and the male-female ratio in the job. Sections on Job Autonomy, Supervision, and Decision-making asked about job flexibility and ability to make effective decisions, job conditions and the respondent's supervisory role. Other sections were Work/Unemployment History, and Union Participation. These sections were followed by a detailed section on the household division of labour, which asked questions on living arrangements, partner's occupation and previous work experience, numbers of children in the household, and an extensive set of questions on many household tasks and who performs them, as well as family decision making. A Family Background section covered financial support and parents' work and educational qualifications, while a section on Friends and Relatives asked about occupation details for the respondent's closest two friends or relatives. A section on Ideology, Interests, Identity and Alliances asked about personal identification, views of Australian society, subjective views on social class, interest in and participation in political process, voting behaviour, political actions and membership of organisations. Finally, this questionnaire included a section for demographic information, covering age, sex, education, birthplace of respondent and parents, religion and church attendance, home ownership, personal and household income, and household composition. The separate attitude questionnaire asked about views on current social and political issues, the media, opinions on poverty and strikes, economic issues such as taxes and big business, government and government institutions, women's issues, attitudes to work and work organisations.

title: Survey of NHMRC Research Workforce Outcomes 1992-2002, Australia, 2004

description: The 2004 Survey of NHMRC Research Workforce Outcomes was conducted by the University of Queensland via a contract with the Department of Health and Ageing and the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). The purpose of the project was to allow for the identification of short and long term research outcomes from NHMRC researchers who had been granted NHMRC People Support Awards (PSAs) during the period 1992-2002. The principle aim of the survey was to gather data on recipients' perceptions of the impact of their awards upon their career development, research training and research capacity building. The survey contains sections concerning the perceived impact of PSA research upon the activities of other health professionals, policy makers and the general public. Key sets of questions address career developments (details of publications, inventions, research tools, patents, basic scientific advances, service delivery outcomes, public health outcomes, commercial developments) that are directly attributable to the PSA. Additionally there are questions regarding motivating factors in applying for PSAs, respondents' broader career objectives and perceived impediments to career development. There is also a section that asks respondents to assess the usefulness of PSAs in assisting researchers to develop important skills and training that are relevant for meeting national and international medical research development needs. Background variables include age, gender, highest completed academic qualifications and the field of study, details of current study, the type of institution that administered the PSA and occupations held since the award of the first PSA.

title: International Students' Spending in Australia, 2004

description: On behalf of Australian Education International (AEI), the University of Queensland Social Research Centre (UQSRC) undertook a survey of the spending patterns of international students in Australia. The aim was to survey students in four key educational sectors (higher education, vocational education, secondary school and English language intensive courses for overseas students) so as to develop a comprehensive understanding of their expenditure on goods and services whilst in Australia. Primarily, key variables measured patterns of expenditure for housing and household goods, utilities, phone costs, health, groceries, transport and automobile costs, entertainment and recreation, clothing, travel, children's expenses and educational expenses. The educational sector of each respondent was also captured, along with course length. Background variables included country of origin, age, gender. Length of time in Australia and intention to migrate were also measured.

title: Quality of Life Survey of South East Queensland Residents

description: The Quality of Life survey was conducted amongst households in the Brisbane and South East Queensland region to collect subjective comments about urban quality of life issues. The study was also carried out for the purposes of garnering information about the context of spatial behaviour. Key variables include measures assessing satisfaction with the quality of life in the region (in regard to climate, lifestyle etc); and Likert scales for statements pertaining to various social, political and economic concerns in the region (availability of public transport, the conduct of local and state governments, economic growth etc). Localised neighbourhood concerns (crime, housing availability) are also addressed; so too are levels of political capital; and social capital in the forms of civic engagement and social trust. Respondents' daily activities are enquired into, the dynamics of how they travel from home to work and back; along with the nature of their daily activities. The types of leisure activities and satisfaction with these are also measured; along with general satisfaction with personal life aspects (employment situation, housing, health etc). Respondents were also asked about their internal emotional state/s. Background variables cover employment status and job satisfaction, partner's employment status, level of education, household type, age, gender, marital status and income. The dataset was checked to ensure that the skip patterns were consistent across variables. Out of range codes were also investigated, and rectified where possible. Missing values were assigned according to the type of missing data (skip, no response, cannot determine response etc). Where possible string variables were condensed into numeric variables.
