STANDARD EUROBAROMETER 55.2TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Between May 10 and June 15 2001, the European Opinion Research Group, a consortium of Market and Public Opinion Researchagencies, made out of INRA (EUROPE) and GfK Worldwide, carried out wave 55.2 of the standard Eurobarometer, on request of theEUROPEAN COMMISSION, Directorate-General Press and Communication, Opinion Polls.

The Standard EUROBAROMETER 55.2 covers the population of the respective nationalities of the European Union Member States,aged 15 years and over, resident in each of the Member States. The basic sample design applied in all Member States is a multi-stage, random (probability) one. In each EU country, a number of sampling points was drawn with probability proportional to populationsize (for a total coverage of the country) and to population density.

For doing so, the points were drawn systematically from each of the "administrative regional units", after stratification by individual unitand type of area. They thus represent the whole territory of the Member States according to the EUROSTAT NUTS 2 (or equivalent)and according to the distribution of the resident population of the respective EU-nationalities in terms of metropolitan, urban and ruralareas. In each of the selected sampling points, a starting address was drawn, at random. Further addresses were selected as everyNth address by standard random route procedures, from the initial address. In each household, the respondent was drawn, at random.All interviews were face-to-face in people's home and in the appropriate national language.

TOTAL NUMBER OF INTERVIEWS 16029

For each country a comparison between the sample and the universe was carried out. The Universe description was derived fromEurostat population data or from national statistics. For all EU member-countries a national weighting procedure, using marginal andintercellular weighting, was carried out based on this Universe description. As such in all countries, minimum gender, age, regionNUTS 2 were introduced in the iteration procedure. For international weighting (i.e. EU averages), INRA (EUROPE) applies the officialpopulation figures as provided by EUROSTAT in the Regional Statistics Yearbook (data for 1997). The total population figures for inputin this post-weighting procedure are listed above.

The results of the Eurobarometer studies are reported in the form of tables, datafiles and analyses. Per question a table of results isgiven with the full question text in English, French and German. The results are expressed as a percentage of the total. The results ofthe Eurobarometer surveys are analysed and made available through the Directorate-General Press and Communication, OpinionPolls of the European Commission, rue de la Loi 200, B-1049 Brussels. The results are published on the internet server of theEuropean Commission: http://europa.eu.int/comm/dg10/epo. All Eurobarometer datafiles are stored at the Zentral Archiv (UniversitätKöln, Bachemer Strasse, 40, D-50869 Köln-Lindenthal), available through the CESSDA Databasehttp://www.nsd.uib.no/cessda/europe.html. They are at the disposal of all institutes members of the European Consortium for PoliticalResearch (Essex), of the Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research (Michigan) and of all those interested in socialscience research.

Readers are reminded that survey results are estimations, the accuracy of which, everything being equal, rests upon the sample sizeand upon the observed percentage. With samples of about 1,000 interviews, the real percentages vary within the following confidencelimits:

Observed percentages 10% or 90% 20% or 80% 30% or 70% 40% or 60% 50%

Confidence limits ± 1.9% ± 2.5% ± 2.7% ± 3.0% ± 3.1%
