THE SURVEYS WERE INTENDED TO PROVIDE ANOTHER DIMENSION TO THE POLITICAL REPORTING OF THE TWO ORGANIZATIONS. THE SURVEYS, USING EXTENSIVE COVERAGE EARLY IN THE PRIMARY CAMPAIGN, WERE DESIGNED TO MONITOR THE PUBLIC'S CHANGING PERCEPTION OF THE CANDIDATES, THE ISSUES, AND THE CANDIDATES' POSITION VIS-A-VIS THE ISSUES. IT WAS THE INTENTION OF THE TWO NEWS ORGANIZATIONS TO REDUCE SPECULATION IN THEIR CAMPAIGN REPORTING ABOUT THE VOTING PUBLIC'S STATE OF MIND. TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF SURVEYS WERE CONDUCTED. THE FIRST WERE TEN SEPARATE TELEPHONE SURVEYS, EACH WITH AN AVERAGE OF 1500 RANDOMLY SELECTED ADULTS. FIVE SURVEYS WERE CONDUCTED MONTHLY FROM FEBRUARY THROUGH JUNE, FOUR MORE BETWEEN EARLY SEPTEMBER AND THE GENERAL ELECTION - ONE IN SEPTEMBER AND ONE FOLLOWING EACH PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. A FINAL SURVEY WAS CONDUCTED TWO DAYS AFTER THE GENERAL ELECTION. THE SECOND SET OF SURVEYS WERE DONE ON THE DAY OF THE ELECTION OR PRIMARY. INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED AT THE POLLING PLACE AMONG A RANDOM SAMPLE OF PEOPLE THAT HAD JUST VOTED IN EITHER THE DEMOCRATIC OR REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY ELECTION. THESE SURVEYS WERE CONDUCTED IN THE FOLLOWING PRIMARY STATES: CALIFORNIA, FLORIDA, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, MASSACHUSETTS, MICHIGAN, NEW HAMPSHIRE, NEW YORK, OHIO, OREGON, PENNSYLVANIA AND WISCONSIN. ADDITIONALLY, FOR THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, THERE WAS A NATIONWIDE ELECTION DAY SURVEY CONDUCTED AT THE POLLING PLACE WITH VOTERS THROUGHOUT THE NATION. RESPONDENTS WERE ASKED TO IDENTIFY THEIR POLITICAL PARTY PREFERENCE, THE CANDIDATE FOR WHOM THEY WOULD VOTE OR HAD VOTED IN PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN, THEIR ATTITUDES TOWARD NATIONAL ISSUES, THE ISSUES AND CANDIDATE CHARACTERISTICS THAT WERE IMPORTANT TO THEM IN THEIR CHOICE OF A CANDIDATE, AND SEVERAL DEMOGRAPHICS.

SELECTED RESPONDENTS WERE ASKED TO FILL OUT A QUESTIONNAIRE WHICH ASKED FOR WHICH PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE THEY HAD JUST VOTED, AND OTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR POLITICAL PREFERENCES AND BACKGROUND. INFORMATION ON RESPONDENT'S SEX, RACE AND HOUR OF VOTING WAS CODED BY THE INTERVIEWER. 15,300 VOTERS WERE SURVEYED. (WEIGHTED N=80,968. SEE WEIGHTING INFORMATION, P.V) SAMPLING INFORMATION THE PRECINCTS SURVEYED WERE A RANDOM SAMPLE OF THOSE USED BY CBS NEWS FOR ESTIMATING THE ELECTION OUTCOME. SAMPLE PRECINCTS WERE SELECTED WITH PROBABILITY PROPORTIONATE TO THE TOTAL VOTE CAST IN A RECENT PAST ELECTION. THE SAMPLING FRAME CONSISTED OF ALL PRECINCTS IN A STATE, STRATIFIED BY PARTY VOTE AND GEOGRAPHY. WITHIN PRECINCTS, RESPONDENTS WERE SELECTED ON A SYSTEMATIC RANDOM BASIS. THE INTERVIEWER HAD NO CONTROL OVER RESPONDENT SELECTION. V WEIGHTING AND FREQUENCIES INFORMATION THE STUDY CONTAINS A WEIGHT VARIABLE (V5) WHICH MUST BE USED IN ANY DATA ANALYSIS. THERE ARE THREE IMPLIED DECIMAL PLACES IN THE WEIGHT VARIABLE. THE FREQUENCIES WHICH APPEAR IN THE TABLES BELOW THE CODE DEFINITIONS FOR EACH VARIABLE IN THE CODEBOOK ARE WEIGHTED. DECIMAL PLACES IN THESE FREQUENCIES HAVE BEEN ROUNDED TO THE NEAREST WHOLE NUMBER. WEIGHTS WERE COMPUTED TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE PROBABILITY OF SELECTION, A NON-INTERVIEW ADJUSTMENT AND A RATIO ESTIMATE TO THE FINAL VOTE TOTALS. ALL WEIGHTS WERE MULTIPLIED BY A CONSTANT SO AS TO YIELD A SAMPLE SIZE OF 80,968.151. THIS FIGURE WHEN MULTIPLIED BY 1000 APPROXIMATES THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO VOTED IN THE 1976 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. USERS WHO WISH TO REPRODUCE THE ORIGINAL SAMPLE SIZE OF 15,300 CAN DO SO BY CREATING A NEW WEIGHT VARIABLE WHICH IS THE PRESENT WEIGHT FOR EACH RESPONDENT MULTIPLIED BY .18896. THIS IS THE RECIPROCAL OF THE CONSTANT THAT WAS ORIGINALLY USED TO PRODUCE THE SAMPLE SIZE OF 80,968.151. VI CODEBOOK INFORMATION THE EXAMPLE BELOW ILLUSTRATES THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE CODEBOOK FOR A TYPICAL VARIABLE. THE NUMBERS IN CIRCLES DO NOT APPEAR IN THE CODEBOOK, BUT REFER TO THE EXPLANATIONS WHICH FOLLOW THIS EXAMPLE. ---------------------------------------------------------- 1 VAR 18 2 WHN DEDC WHO TO VTE FR 3 MD=9 REF 18 4 LOC 40 WIDTH 1 5 ------------ 6 ------------ 7 Q.F.

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. VII 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. THE QUESTION NUMBER ASSOCIATED WITH THE VARIABLE APPEARS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VARIABLE NAME. 3. INDICATES THE CODE VALUES OF MISSING DATA. IN THIS EXAMPLE, CODE VALUES EQUAL TO NINE ARE MISSING DATA (MD=9). ALTERNATIVE STATEMENTS FOR OTHER VARIABLES ARE "MD=0", 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. VIII 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. FREQUENCIES INSERTED IN THIS CODEBOOK ARE WEIGHTED. 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). IX PROCESSING INFORMATION THIS STUDY WAS PROCESSED ACCORDING TO THE STANDARD ICPSR PROCEDURES. THE DATA WERE CHECKED FOR INCONSISTENT CODES, ILLEGAL CODES AND BLANKS WHICH, WHENEVER FOUND, WERE CORRECTED BY RECODING TO THE APPROPRIATE MISSING DATA CATEGORIES. BECAUSE THIS SURVEY WAS FILLED OUT BY THE RESPONDENTS THEMSELVES, SOME VARIABLES HAVE LARGER THAN USUAL "NO ANSWER" CATEGORIES, INDICATING THAT LARGE NUMBERS OF RESPONDENTS FAILED TO ANSWER THE QUESTION. STATEMENTS BRACKETED IN "(" AND ")" SIGNS IN THE BODY OF THE CODEBOOK AND THE FOOTNOTES WERE ADDED BY THE PROCESSORS FOR EXPLANATORY PURPOSES. FILE STRUCTURE THE DATA ARE AVAILABLE FROM ICPSR IN TWO FORMATS: A CARD-IMAGE FILE AND AN OSIRIS DATASET. THE CARD-IMAGE FILE CONTAINS 1 DECK PER RESPONDENT ON 80-COLUMN PUNCHED CARDS. THERE ARE TWO COMPONENTS TO THE OSIRIS DATASET. THE OSIRIS DICTIONARY CONTAINS ALL TECHNICAL INFORMATION FOR EACH VARIABLE IN THE OSIRIS DATAFILE. THE DICTIONARY OR DICTIONARY-CODEBOOK FILE IS USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE OSIRIS SOFTWARE PACKAGE. THE OSIRIS DATA FILE IS A SINGLE LOGICAL RECORD OF 60 BYTES FOR EACH RESPONDENT. THERE ARE 37 VARIABLES IN THE DATASET. THE OSIRIS DATA FILE CAN BE ACCESSED DIRECTLY BY SOFTWARE PACKAGES WHICH DO NOT USE THE OSIRIS DICTIONARY BY SPECIFYING THE TAPE LOCATIONS OF THE DESIRED VARIABLES. TAPE LOCATIONS ARE PROVIDED IN THIS CODEBOOK. X VARIABLE DESCRIPTION LIST VAR. NO.
