THE DATA (AND TABULATIONS) UTILIZED IN THIS (PUBLICATION) WERE MADE AVAILABLE (IN PART) BY THE INTER-UNIVERSITY CONSORTIUM FOR POLITICAL AND SOCIAL RESEARCH. THE DATA FOR EURO-BAROMETER 8 WERE ORIGINALLY COLLECTED BY JACQUES-RENE RABIER, SPECIAL ADVISER TO THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, AND BY RONALD INGLEHART, THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN. NEITHER THE ORIGINAL COLLECTORS OF THE DATA NOR THE CONSORTIUM BEAR ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ANALYSES OR INTER- PRETATIONS PRESENTED HERE. IN ORDER TO PROVIDE FUNDING AGENCIES WITH ESSENTIAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE USE OF ARCHIVAL RESOURCES, AND TO FACILITATE THE EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION ABOUT ICPSR PAR- TICIPANTS' RESEARCH ACTIVITIES, EACH USER OF THE ICPSR DATA FACILITIES IS EXPECTED TO SEND TWO COPIES OF EACH COMPLETED MANUSCRIPT OR THESIS ABSTRACT TO THE CONSORTIUM. PLEASE INDICATE IN THE COVER LETTER WHICH DATA WERE USED. I THE EUR0-BAROMETER SURVEY SERIES THE SURVEYS DOCUMENTED IN THIS CODEBOOK ARE THE FRUIT OF A UNIQUE PROGRAM OF CROSS-NATIONAL AND CROSS-TEMPORAL SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH. THIS EFFORT BEGAN IN EARLY 1970, WHEN THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES SPONSORED SIMULTANEOUS SURVEYS OF THE PUBLICS OF THE SIX NATIONS THAT WERE THEN MEMBERS OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY. THESE SURVEYS WERE DESIGNED TO MEASURE PUBLIC AWARENESS OF, AND ATTITUDES TOWARD, THE COMMON MARKET AND OTHER EUROPEAN COMMUNITY INSTITUTIONS; IN COMPLEMENTARY FASHION, THEY ALSO PROBED INTO THE GOALS GIVEN TOP PRIORITY FOR ONE'S OWN NATION. THESE CONCERNS HAVE REMAINED A CENTRAL PART OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY'S RESEARCH EFFORTS--WHICH WERE CARRIED FORWARD WITH ANOTHER SIX-NATION SURVEY IN THE SUMMER OF 1971 THAT GAVE SPECIAL ATTENTION TO AGRICULTURAL PROBLEMS. THESE THEMES WERE OF CENTRAL INTEREST AGAIN IN A SURVEY OF THE PUBLICS OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY COUNTRIES--NOW NINE IN NUMBER--CARRIED OUT IN SEPTEMBER 1973. AT THIS POINT 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 A STANDARD FEATURE OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY PUBLIC OPINION SURVEYS. IN 1974, THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES LAUNCHED THE EURO-BAROMETER SERIES OF SURVEYS, DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A REGULAR MONITORING OF THE SOCIAL AND POLITICAL ATTITUDES OF THE PUBLICS OF THE NINE MEMBER-NATIONS, FRANCE, GERMANY, GREAT BRITAIN, ITALY, THE NETHERLANDS, BELGIUM, DENMARK, IRELAND AND LUXEMBOURG. CARRIED OUT IN THE SPRING AND FALL OF EACH YEAR, A TOTAL OF TWELVE EURO-BAROMETERS HAD BEEN COMPLETED BY THE END OF 1979. IN ADDITION TO OBTAINING REGULAR READINGS OF SUPPORT FOR EUROPEAN INTEGRATION AND THE PERCEIVED QUALITY OF LIFE, GIVEN EURO-BAROMETERS HAVE EXPLORED A VARIETY OF SPECIAL TOPICS. THUS EURO-BAROMETER 3 (CARRIED OUT IN THE SPRING OF 1975) PROBED INTO PUBLIC ATTITUDES TOWARD THE ROLE OF WOMEN IN ECONOMIC, SOCIAL AND POLITICAL LIFE. BAROMETER 4 CARRIED A SUPPLEMENTARY SECTION ON CONSUMER ATTITUDES. BAROMETER 5 INCLUDED AN INVESTIGATION OF MASS PERCEPTIONS OF AND ATTITUDES TOWARD POVERTY AND TOWARD MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS. BAROMETER 6 CONTAINED AN EXPANDED SERIES OF QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE COMMON MARKET, IN CONNECTION WITH THE FACT THAT IT WAS THEN ENTERING ITS TWENTIETH YEAR OF EXISTENCE. BAROMETER 7 WAS COMPLEMENTED WITH AN EXPLORATION OF PUBLIC ATTITUDES TOWARD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, WHILE EURO-BAROMETER 8, CARRIED OUT IN THE FALL OF 1977, INQUIRED ABOUT ATTITUDES TOWARD EARLY RETIREMENT, AS WELL AS A FURTHER EXPLORATION OF ATTITUDES TOWARD THE ROLE OF WOMEN. BAROMETER 9 II INCLUDED A SECTION ON EMPLOYMENT AND ATTITUDES TOWARD UNEMPLOYMENT AND BAROMETER 11 FOCUSED ON THEMES RELATED TO CHILD-REARING AND THE FAMILY. IN ADDITION, ATTITUDES TOWARD THE ORGANIZATION AND ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT HAVE BEEN EXPLORED IN EACH EURO-BAROMETER BEGINNING WITH NUMBER 7 IN THE SPRING OF 1977. EURO-BAROMETERS 9 AND 10 TOOK UP THE QUESTION OF WHETHER EUROPEANS APPROVE OF THE DIRECT ELECTION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, WHILE BAROMETER 11 SAMPLED REACTIONS TO THE CAMPAIGN. ATTITUDES TOWARD EXPANSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY HAVE ALSO BEEN PROBED. THIS ENTIRE SERIES OF PUBLIC OPINION SURVEYS HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT UNDER THE DIRECTION OF JACQUES-RENE RABIER, SPECIAL ADVISOR TO THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES; RONALD INGLEHART OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN COLLABORATED WITH HIM IN DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF THE SURVEYS, AND IN HELPING MAKE THE RESULTING DATA AVAILABLE TO THE SOCIAL SCIENCE COMMUNITY THROUGH THE ICPSR SURVEY DATA ARCHIVE. THE EURO-BAROMETER SERIES ALONE NOW CONTAINS 108 NATIONAL SURVEYS COORDINATED ACROSS BOTH TIME AND SPACE. KEY QUESTIONS IN THIS DATA COLLECTION HAVE BEEN ASKED IN COMPARABLE FORM ACROSS NINE NATIONS AT GIVEN TIME POINTS, AND ACROSS A PERIOD OF NEARLY EIGHT YEARS IN GIVEN COUNTRIES. IT IS HOPED THAT THESE DATA WILL PROVIDE A VALUABLE RESOURCE TO EMPIRICALLY-ORIENTED SOCIAL SCIENTISTS. RESPONDENTS FOR BAROMETER 8 WERE INTERVIEWED IN OCTOBER-NOVEMBER, 1977. THE PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS WISH TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE SUPPORT OF THE NSF, GRANT NUMBER SOC-7914619, FOR THE CLEANING AND PROCESSING OF THE STUDY. III STUDY DESCRIPTION EURO-BAROMETER 8 WAS CONDUCTED BY JACQUES-RENE RABIER, SPECIAL ADVISER TO THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, AND BY RONALD INGLEHART OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN. THIS STUDY IS PART OF AN ONGOING PROGRAM OF PUBLIC OPINION RESEARCH SPONSORED BY THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY. THE FIELDWORK WAS CARRIED OUT BY A CONSORTIUM OF EUROPEAN POLLING ORGANIZATIONS IN ALL NINE NATIONS OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY. RESPONDENTS FOR EURO-BAROMETER 8 WERE INTERVIEWED IN OCTOBER-NOVEMBER, 1977. THIS STUDY CONTINUES THE SERIES OF ITEMS ON FEELINGS TOWARD EUROPEAN INTEGRATION AND THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY THAT HAD BEEN ASKED IN EARLIER EURO-BAROMETERS. ATTITUDES TOWARD THE FORTHCOMING EUROPEAN PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS ARE A PARTICULAR FOCUS OF THE SURVEY. IN ADDITION, EURO-BAROMETER 8 GOES INTO SATISFACTION WITH WORK AND FEELINGS ABOUT RETIREMENT. THE SATISFACTION OF HOUSEWIVES WITH THEIR WORK AND THEIR POSSIBLE DESIRES FOR PAID EMPLOYMENT OUTSIDE THE HOME ARE ALSO EXPLORED. OTHER QUESTIONS FOCUS ON TASKS THAT MEN SHOULD HELP WITH IN THE HOME, AND THE ROLE OF WOMEN AS ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS IN POLITICS. THE PERSONAL DATA SECTION OF THE INTERVIEW OBTAINED INFORMATION ABOUT THE EDUCATION, OCCUPATION, MARITAL STATUS, AGE AND SEX OF THE RESPONDENT. THIS SECTION ALSO ASCERTAINED THE OCCUPATION OF THE HEAD OF THE HOUSEHOLD AND COMPOSITION OF THE HOUSEHOLD.

IV SAMPLING INFORMATION EACH NATIONAL SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED BY A PROFESSIONAL POLL- ING AGENCY. A LIST OF THE SURVEY ORGANIZATIONS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE EURO-BAROMETER SERIES IN EACH NATION IS INCLUDED AT THE END OF THIS SECTION. REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLES OF THE TOTAL POPULATION OF AGE FIFTEEN YEARS AND OLDER WERE DRAWN IN EACH COUNTRY. THE SAMPLING DESIGNS WERE EITHER MULTI-STAGE NATIONAL PROBABILITY SAMPLES OR NATIONAL STRATIFIED QUOTA SAMPLES. 1) NATIONAL PROBABILITY SAMPLES WERE DRAWN IN BELGIUM, DENMARK, AND THE NETHERLANDS. THESE SAMPLES RELY ON COMPLETE LISTINGS OF THE NATIONAL POPULATION, FIFTEEN YEARS AND OLDER, FROM WHICH RESPONDENTS ARE RANDOMLY CHOSEN (IN SEVERAL STAGES). 2) STRATIFIED NATIONAL QUOTA SAMPLES WERE DRAWN IN FRANCE, GERMANY, GREAT BRITAIN (INCLUDING NORTHERN IRELAND), ITALY, IRELAND, AND LUXEMBOURG. TAKING INTO ACCOUNT REGION AND THE SIZE OF LOCALITIES, RESPONDENTS ARE CHOSEN WITHIN SELECTED SAMPLING POINTS TO PROVIDE A REGIONALLY REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE WITH RESPECT TO THE CRITERIA SEX, AGE, AND OCCUPATION. IN THE FRENCH SAMPLE THE RURAL POPULATION WAS UNDERREPRESENTED. THE FRENCH WEIGHT VARIABLE (V6) SHOULD BE USED TO PRODUCE A COMPLETELY REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE OF THE NATION. THE VARIABLE CORRECTS THE SAMPLE BY AGE, BY SEX AND BY DEGREE OF URBANIZATION. INTERVIEWS IN ALL OTHER COUNTRIES ARE UNAFFECTED BY THE APPLICATION OF THE FRENCH WEIGHT VARIABLE. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION REGARDING THE SPECIFIC NATIONAL SAMPLE DESIGNS, THE NATIONAL POLLING AGENCIES SHOULD BE CONTACTED.

THIS VARIABLE LEAVES RESPONDENTS IN THE OTHER EIGHT EUROPEAN COMMUNITY NATIONS UNAFFECTED WHEN APPLIED TO THOSE SAMPLES. THIS STUDY ALSO CONTAINS A WEIGHT VARIABLE (V5) WHICH PRODUCES A REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE WHEN USED IN ANALYSIS. THIS WEIGHT VARIABLE ADJUST THE SIZE OF EACH NATIONAL SAMPLE, WEIGHTING EACH NATION IN TERMS OF ITS CONTRIBUTION TO THE TOTAL POPULATION OF THE COMMUNITY. THIS WEIGHT VARIABLE IS NOT NECESSARY IF THE ANALYST IS ONLY INTERESTED IN THE INDIVIDUAL NATIONAL SAMPLES, AND NOT THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. THE EUROPEAN WEIGHT VARIABLE INCORPORATES THE FRENCH WEIGHT VARIABLE, SO THAT APPLICATION OF BOTH WEIGHT VARIABLES SIMULTANEOUSLY IS UNNECESSARY. THE UNWEIGHTED N FOR THE COMBINED 9-NATION FILE IS 8826, THE WEIGHTED N OF THIS FILE IS 9023.11. ALL RESPONDENTS WERE GIVEN WEIGHT VALUES TO TWO IMPLIED DECIMAL PLACES. THE FOLLOWING TABLE PRESENTS THE UNWEIGHTED AND WEIGHTED N FOR EACH NATION, AND THE WEIGHTING FACTOR USED: UNWEIGHTED WEIGHTED WEIGHT (N) (N) VALUE FRANCE 1002 1809.28 1.81* BELGIUM 1006 342.04 0.34 NETHERLANDS 960 470.40 0.49 GERMANY 1009 2229.89 2.21 ITALY 1155 1917.30 1.66 LUXEMBOURG 344 13.76 0.04 DENMARK 995 179.10 0.18 IRELAND 997 99.70 0.10 BRITAIN 1060 1908.00 1.80 NORTHERN IRELAND 298 53.64 0.18 EUROPE 8826 9023.11 *THIS IS A MEAN VALUE. INDIVIDUAL WEIGHTS REFLECT BOTH THE FRENCH WEIGHT IN EUROPE AND THE INDIVIDUAL'S WEIGHT IN THE FRENCH SAMPLE. FREQUENCIES FOR EACH NATIONAL SAMPLE HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE BODY OF THE CODEBOOK FOLLOWING THE QUESTION TEXT AND CODES FOR EACH VARIABLE. THESE FREQUENCIES DO NOT USE THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY WEIGHTS, BUT DO USE THE FRENCH WEIGHT VARIABLE.

VIII 1. INDICATES THE VARIABLE AND REFERENCE NUMBERS. A VARI- ABLE AND A REFERENCE NUMBER ARE ASSIGNED TO EACH ITEM IN THE STUDY. IN THIS CODEBOOK, WHICH DOCUMENTS THE ARCHIVED DATASET, THESE NUMBERS ARE IDENTICAL. SHOULD THE DATA BE SUBSET OR REARRANGED BY AN OSIRIS PROGRAM (E.G., MMP TO INTERSPERSE DATA FROM ANOTHER SOURCE, OR TCOT TO PRODUCE AN ANALYSIS DECK), THE VARIABLE NUMBERS WOULD CHANGE TO REFLECT THE ORDER OF THE NEW DATASET, WHILE THE REFERENCE NUMBERS WOULD REMAIN UNCHANGED TO REFLECT THE VARIABLE NUMBER IN THE CODEBOOK DESCRIBING THE ARCHIVED DATASET. 2. INDICATES THE ABBREVIATED VARIABLE NAME (MAXIMUM OF 24 CHARACTERS) USED IN THE OSIRIS SYSTEM TO IDENTIFY THE VARIABLE FOR THE USER. AN EXPANDED VERSION OF THE VARIABLE NAME CAN BE FOUND IN THE VARIABLE DESCRIPTION LIST. 3. INDICATES THE CODE VALUES OF MISSING DATA. IN THIS EXAMPLE, CODE VALUES EQUAL TO ZERO AND THOSE GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO EIGHT ARE MISSING DATA (MD=0 OR GE 8). ALTERNATIVE STATEMENTS FOR OTHER VARIABLES ARE "MD=0", "MD GE 7", OR "NO MISSING DATA CODES". SOME ANALYSIS SOFTWARE PACKAGES (INCLUDING THE OSIRIS SOFTWARE PACKAGE) REQUIRE THAT CERTAIN TYPES OF DATA WHICH THE USER DESIRES TO EXCLUDE FROM ANALYSIS CAN BE DESIGNATED AS "MISSING DATA", E.G., INAPPROPRIATE, UNASCERTAINED, UNASCERTAINABLE OR AMBIGOUS DATA CATEGORIES. 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 IF SO DESIRED. 4. INDICATES THE STARTING LOCATION AND WIDTH OF THIS VARI- ABLE WHEN THE DATA ARE STORED ON A MAGNETIC TAPE IN THE OSIRIS FORMAT. IF THE VARIABLE IS OF A MULTIPLE- RESPONSE TYPE, THE WIDTH REFERENCED IS THAT OF A SINGLE RESPONSE. 5. INDICATES THE LOCATION BY DECK AND COLUMN(S) OF THIS VARIABLE WHEN THE DATA ARE ON CARDS OR IN A CARD-IMAGE FORMAT (EITHER 80- OR 84-COLUMN FORMAT). 6. A VARIABLE CONTAINING DATA WITH IMPLIED DECIMALS IS DENOTED BY THE MESSAGE "XX DEC PLACE(S)", WHERE XX IS THE NUMBER OF DECIMAL PLACES IMPLIED (NOT PUNCHED) IN THE VARIABLE. 7. THIS IS THE FULL TEXT (QUESTION) SUPPLIED BY THE INVESTIGATOR TO DESCRIBE THE VARIABLE. THE QUESTION TEXT REFLECTS THE ORIGINAL WORDING OF THE QUESTION- NAIRE ITEM. IX 8. INDICATES AN ADDITIONAL COMMENT OR EXPLANATION APPENDED TO THE VARIABLE DESCRIPTION. 9. A VARIABLE WHICH HAS A FOOTNOTE ASSOCIATED WITH IT IS DENOTED BY THE MESSAGE "SEE NOTE(S) X", WHERE X IS THE NUMBER OF THE FOOTNOTE REFERENCED. 10. INDICATES THE FREQUENCY OF OCCURRENCE OF EACH CODE VALUE FOR THIS VARIABLE. 11. INDICATES THE CODE VALUES OCCURRING IN THE DATA FOR THIS VARIABLE, WHERE RANGES OF VALUES ARE INDICATED BY ..., THE "..." DO NOT APPEAR IN THE DATA. 12. 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). 13. INDICATES THE FREQUENCY OF OCCURRENCE OF EACH CODE IN EACH NATIONAL SAMPLE. THESE FREQUENCIES DO NOT USE THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY WEIGHTS, BUT DO USE THE FRENCH WEIGHT VARIABLE. (SEE WEIGHTING INFORMATION AND FREQUENCIES). X DATA PREPARATION AND FORMATTING THE DATA RECEIVED BY THE ARCHIVE WERE FIRST SORTED AND CHECKED FOR MISSING OR DUPLICATE CARDS. DUPLICATE CARDS, IF ANY, WERE VERIFIED THEN THE DUPLICATES WERE REMOVED. MISSING CARDS WERE REPLACED BY MISSING DATA VALUES. THE DATA WERE THEN CHECKED FOR ILLEGAL (WILD) CODES AND INCONSISTENCIES WHICH, WHENEVER FOUND, WERE ASSIGNED TO MISSING DATA VALUES. THE CODEBOOK WAS REORDERED TO PRESERVE THE ORDER OF THE BRITISH QUESTIONNAIRE. (MINOR VARIATIONS IN THE QUESTION ORDER TEXT DO APPEAR IN OTHER NATIONAL QUESTIONNAIRES.) INDICES WERE INCLUDED AS CREATED BY THE ORIGINAL INVESTIGATORS. THROUGHOUT THE TEXT ADDITIONAL COMMENTS BRACKETED IN "(" AND ")" SIGNS, WERE INSERTED BY THE STUDY PROCESSOR IN THE COURSE OF PREPARING THE CODEBOOK IN ORDER TO FACILITATE NON-SEQUENTIAL REFERENCING AND TO PROVIDE FURTHER EXPLANATORY INFORMATION. THE DATA ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE CONSORTIUM IN TWO FORMATS: A CARD IMAGE FILE, OR AN OSIRIS DATASET. THE CARD IMAGE FILE CONTAINS 3 DECKS PER RESPONDENT IN A FORMAT BASED ON 80 COLUMN PUNCHED CARDS. THE DECKS FOR EACH RESPONDENT ARE SORTED IN ASCENDING ORDER. THERE ARE TWO COMPONENTS TO THE OSIRIS DATASET. THE OSIRIS DICTIONARY GIVES THE FORMAT AND OTHER INFORMATION FOR EACH VARIABLE IN THE OSIRIS DATA FILE. THE DICTIONARY OR DICTIONARY- CODEBOOK IS USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE OSIRIS SOFTWARE PACKAGE. THE OSIRIS DATA FILE IS CONSTRUCTED WITH A SINGLE LOGICAL RECORD PER RESPONDENT. THE OSIRIS DATA FILE CAN BE ACESSED DIRECTLY BY SOFTWARE PACKAGES WHICH DO NOT USE THE OSIRIS DICTIONARY BY SPECIFYING THE TAPE LOCATIONS OF THE DESIRED VARIABLES. THESE TAPE LOCATIONS ARE CONTAINED IN THE OSIRIS CODEBOOK. THE STUDY STAFF FOR EURO-BAROMETER 8 DEVELOPED AN EQUIVALENT FRENCH AND BRITISH QUESTIONNAIRE FOR THIS SURVEY. THESE QUESTIONNAIRES WERE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE NATIONAL POLLING INSTITUTES WHO TRANSLATED THE QUESTIONNAIRES INTO THEIR RESPECTIVE LANGUAGES. THE TEXT OF THE BRITISH QUESTIONNAIRE WAS USED IN CONSTRUCTING THIS CODEBOOK AND IS INCLUDED IN AN APPENDIX OF THIS CODEBOOK. THE OTHER NATIONAL QUESTIONNAIRES ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE ICPSR UPON REQUEST. DATA PROCESSING FOR EURO-BAROMETER 8 WAS DONE BY THOMAS ROCHON AND GINGER MAGGIO. XI VARIABLE DESCRIPTION LIST VAR. NO.
