The Candidate Countries Eurobarometer (CCEB) series, first conducted in 2001, gathers information from the countries applying to become members of the European Union (EU) in a way that allows direct comparison with the standard Eurobarometer series carried out in the existing EU countries. The CCEB provides decision-makers and the European public with opinion data on the similarities and differences between the EU and the candidate countries. The CCEB continuously tracks support for EU membership in each country and records changes in attitudes related to European issues in the candidate countries. This round of the CCEB surveys was conducted between October 11 and November 8, 2003, in the 13 candidate countries: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Turkey. Respondents were queried on such topics as life satisfaction and expectations, political participation, trust in institutions, national and European identity, international threats, democracy satisfaction, European currency, European elections, fraud in the EU, and trust in opinion polls. Respondents also answered questions focusing on the EU and its image, citizenship, institutions, membership, enlargement, unification, importance, statements on EU policies, particularly foreign and defense policies, EU policy priorities, EU decision-making influence (i.e., the European Commission, Parliament, and Council), EU accession, and the EU's role in the world and in relation to the United States. Background variables include nationality, marital status, level of education, age, number of people living in household, whether anyone in the household owned a color television set, video recorder, video camera, automatic washing machine, dishwasher, home computer, microwave oven, mobile phone, or two or more cars, current occupation, whether the respondent was paid directly or indirectly by the state, local government, or other public administration, religious affiliation, and voting intent.Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR04056.v2
