Summary
The Eurobarometer series is a unique cross-national and cross-temporal survey program conducted on behalf of the European Commission. These surveys regularly monitor public opinion in the European Union (EU) member countries and consist of standard modules and special topic modules. The standard modules address attitudes towards European unification, institutions and policies, measurements for general socio-political orientations, as well as respondent and household demographics. The special topic modules address such topics as agriculture, education, natural environment and resources, public health, public safety and crime, and science and technology. This round of Eurobarometer surveys covers the following special topics: (1) European Parliament, (2) development aid, (3) social climate, and (4) discrimination. Respondents were queried on the image associated with the European Union, their own view of the European Union, voter activity, and their familiarity with European institutions. Additionally, respondents were asked about their awareness and opinion of the EU's European Citizen's Initiative and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, their opinions on giving federal aid to developing countries, as well as life satisfaction and workplace diversity. Demographic and other background information collected includes age, gender, nationality, marital status, occupation, age when stopped full-time education, household composition, ownership of a fixed or mobile telephone and other goods, difficulties in paying bills, level in society, and Internet use. In addition, country-specific data includes type and size of locality, region of residence, and language of interview (select countries). Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR34859.v1
