Description: This study was sponsored by The Detroit News and was conducted in conjunction with the Institute for Social Research's Survey Research Center (SRC) at The University of Michigan, as part of the SRC's monthly Surveys of Consumer Attitudes and Behavior. Information was obtained from the SRC's national sample of 688 respondents, supplemented by 205 additional interviews conducted with Republican respondents. The additional Republican respondents were interviewed to obtain samples of partisans of sufficient analytical size for the study. Questions measured respondents' attitudes toward current government policies concerning the economy, unemployment, federal spending, and relations with the Soviet Union. Items on the interview schedule were also designed to assess respondents' feelings regarding Carter's performance as president and their 1980 party affiliations and presidential preferences.
