1 Standard Eurobarometer CD-ROM (Release: January 15, 2008) Standard Eurobarometer public opinion surveys are conducted on behalf of the European Commission's Eurobarometer Unit at least two times a year in all member nations of the European Union. Since the early seventies they are providing regular monitoring of social and political attitudes in the European publics. Eurobarometer data are made available for research and training purposes by the Social Science Data Archives. The data received from the data producers were checked, corrected, and formatted to archival standards since the beginning by the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), starting with Eurobarometer 34 in co-operation with the Central Archive for Empirical Social Research (since 2007 GESIS-ZA), and intermittently also supported by the Swedish Social Science Data Service (SSD). The data are comprehensively documented in English language on study and variable level. Unprocessed recent data sets are included after basic checks and adaptations as supplied to the archive by the data producers (see footnote on page 4). Some general information referring to the complete Eurobarometer holding is summarized in the present overview. Further and continuously updated information on the whole series and each individual study, including the access to the national field questionnaires in all language versions or up-to-date errata information, is available through the GESIS-ZA Eurobarometer web space:

6 Eurobarometer Holding Information Preliminary Remark As a result of the increased number and volume of recent surveys connected with the Eurobarometer survey series, the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), the Zentralarchiv für Empirische Sozialforschung (since 2007 GESIS-ZA), and the Swedish Social Science Data Service (SSD) have entered into a co-operative arrangement for the production and distribution of these important data collections, starting with Eurobarometer 37 and 43 respectively. Under this agreement, ICPSR, ZA, and intermittently SSD alternately assume(d) responsibility for the archive edition of each survey. In this way all users receive Eurobarometer data sets and codebook documentation in identical standard formats although each archive will still employ its own study number to identify each survey. Since this co-operation presupposes common standards for data and codebook preparation, the formatting may in some details diverge from the usual ICPSR, ZA, or SSD standards. Identical datasets, SPSS control statements and English-language documentation are distributed by ICPSR and GESIS-ZA. Since 2007 Standard Eurobarometer are successively published for retrieval, on-line data browsing and download under the NESSTAR based ZACAT system. Bibliographic Citation Publications based on ICPSR or ZA data collections should acknowledge those sources by means of bibliographic citations. To ensure that such source attributions are captured for social science bibliographic utilities, citations must appear in footnotes or in the reference section of publications. The proposed bibliographic citation for a typical Eurobarometer data collection is: R. Soufflot de Magny (European Commission): Eurobarometer 63.1: Science and Technology, Social Values, and Services of General Interest, January-February [Computer file].

8 The Eurobarometer (a.k.a. Euro-Barometer) Survey Series The Eurobarometer surveys are the products of a unique program of cross-national and cross-temporal social science research. The effort began in early 1970, when the Commission of the European Community sponsored simultaneous surveys of the publics of the Community. These surveys were designed to measure public awareness of, and attitudes toward, the Common Market and other European Community institutions, in complementary fashion. These concerns have remained a central part of the European Community's research efforts -- which were carried forward in 1971 with another six-nation survey and in a survey of the publics of the European Community countries -- then nine in number -- carried out in After 1973, the surveys took on a somewhat broader scope in content as well as in geographical coverage, with measures of subjective satisfaction and the perceived quality of life becoming standard features of the European Community public opinion surveys. In 1974, the Commission of the European Community launched the Eurobarometer series, designed to provide a regular monitoring of the social and political attitudes of the publics of the nine member-nations: France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Ireland, Luxembourg. These Eurobarometer surveys are carried out in the spring and fall of each year. In addition to obtaining regular readings of support for European integration and the perceived quality of life, each of the Eurobarometer has explored a variety of special topics. Also, attitudes toward the organization and role of the European Parliament have been explored in almost each Eurobarometer beginning with Barometer 7 in the spring of Intermittently Standard Eurobarometer have investigated special topics, such as agriculture, biotechnology, energy, environment, development aid, gender roles, health related issues, immigration and xenophobia, poverty and social exclusion, regional identity, science and technology, information technology, working conditions, urban traffic etc. In the case of some supplementary studies, special youth and elderly samples have been drawn. Starting with Eurobarometer 34.1 additional supplementary surveys on special issues have been conducted which might only include a reduced set of standard trend questions or demographics. The Eurobarometer have included Greece since Autumn 1980 (EB 14), Portugal and Spain since Autumn 1985 (EB 24), the former German Democratic Republic since Autumn 1990 (EB 34), Norway occasionally since the fall 1991 (EB 34), Finland since the spring of 1993 (Number 39), and Sweden and Austria since fall 1994 (EB 42). Starting with Eurobarometer 62 the 10 new members as of 2004 and in most waves also the remaining candidate countries (Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia and Turkey) are considered, intermittently complemented by the Turkish Cypriote Community (TCC) and, for the first time in 2007, Macedonia. 8

9 The Eurobarometer public opinion surveys are conducted on behalf of and coordinated by the European Commission, DG Press and Communication - Opinion Polls Sector. Special topic modules are carried out on request of the responsible EC Directorate General as regards the topic. The program was initially launched and managed until 1986 by Jacques-René Rabier in co-operation with Ronald Inglehart. Between 1987 and 1996 it was continued and enlarged under the direction of Karlheinz Reif, since 1993 together with Anna Melich. Anna Melich took over the Eurobarometer direction from 1997 to 1999, by then still within the organizational framework of the former Directorate-General X, Public Opinion Surveys and Research Unit. In 2000/2002 Eurobarometer were intermittently conducted in the framework of of the DG Education and Culture, Citizens' Center - Analysis of Public Opinion, under the direction of Harald Hartung, and starting with Eurobarometer 54 under the DG Communication, Public Opinion unit, initially headed by Thomas Christensen, and since 2003 by Antonis Papacostas. Since 1999 the organisation and supervision of the surveys were consecutively executed by Rubén Mohedano-Brèthes (until 2002) and Renaud Soufflot de Magny (until 2006). 9

11 <1> Indicates the variable number (SPSS variable name). A serial variable number is assigned to each variable in the data collection. <2> In the future unique MNEMO-technical abbreviations can be assigned to selected trend variables in the data collection. This feature is presently not available. <3> Indicates the abbreviated variable labels (maximum of 40 characters) used to identify the variable for the user. These variable labels are identical to corresponding SPSS variable labels. <4> Indicates the starting location and width of this variable when the data set is stored. If the variable is of a multiple-response type, the width referenced is that of a single response. In this example the variable is 1 column wide. <5> Indicates the code values of missing data. In this example, 0 (MD1) and 4 (MD2) or any code greater than 4, are missing data. Most analysis software packages require that certain types of data which the user desires to be excluded from analysis be designated as "MISSING DATA," e.g., inappropriate (Inap.), not ascertained (NA), unascertainable, or ambiguous data categories such as "Don't Know" (DK). Although these codes are defined as missing data categories, this does not mean that the user should not or cannot use them in a substantive role and modify the corresponding SPSS definition if so desired. For compatibility purposes the missings are not defined in the portable SPSS system files. <6> Indicates the number (n) of decimal places defined for the respective variable. <7> This is the full text (question) supplied by the investigator to describe the variable. The question text and the numbers and letters that may appear at the beginning reflect the wording of the questionnaire item. The question text is usually derived from the basic English questionnaire or the British field questionnaire. <8> Comments in brackets are references which do not appear in the original questionnaire. They delineate explanatory text added by the principal investigator (i.e. the co-ordinating fieldwork institute) or ICPSR, ZA or SSD. In this case the last appearance of the present question is referenced; in the case of multiple response variables (dummy variables) the corresponding full question text is referenced. <9> Indicates the code values occurring in the data for this variable. <10> Indicates the textual definitions of the codes. Abbreviations commonly used in the code definitions are "DK" (Don't Know), "NA" (Not Ascertained), and "Inap." (Inappropriate). 11

12 <11> The absolute frequencies for each country refer to the number of cases in the unweighted dataset. The relative frequencies for each country refer to the valid cases, i.e., the unweighted total number of cases reduced by the number of cases defined as missing data (M). The Sum refers to the total number of each country's cases in the unweighted dataset. Please notice that unlike typical ICPSR codebooks all tables contain unweighted frequency counts. The following abbreviations are used to indicate countries: France F FR Belgium B BE The Netherlands NL Germany D DE Germany (West) D-W DE_W Germany (East) D-E DE_E Italy I IT Luxembourg L LU Denmark DK Ireland IRE IE United Kingdom UK GB Great Britain GB Northern Ireland NIRL GB_NI Greece GR Spain E ES Portugal P PT Norway N NO Finland FIN FI Sweden S SE Austria A AT Rep. of Cyprus CY Czech Republic CZ Estonia EE Hungary HU Latvia LV Lithuania LT Malta MT Poland PL Slovakia SK Slovenia SI Bulgaria BG Romania RO Turkey TR Croatia HR Cyprus (TCC) CY_TCC Macedonia MK 12
