Documents and Data

Remarks

  • Current archive dataset version / update: v1.0.1 (2012)
  • Errata
    • Variable REGION for Great Britain / United Kingdom in EUROBAROMETER 5-10 and 16-31A: Should read "EAST MIDLANDS" instead of "NORTH MIDLANDS".
    • Data for Greece in variable REGION (V95) are dubious. Variable should only be used with caution. (29.01.2004)
    • The documentation for the construction of the "Support for Common Market Index" in the EUROBAROMETER 16 codebook is incorrect. Corrected for ZA deliveries after March 15, 1999.
    • Value labels for variable V74 (FREQUENCY OF CHURCH ATTENDANCE) are not correct in the English language codebook and SPSS control cards. Category '3' has to be corrected as follows:  (3) A FEW TIMES A YEAR. Corrected for ZA deliveries after March 15, 1999.
    • Errors have been detected in the COGNITIVE MOBILISATION INDEX variable for Eurobarometer 16, 17, and 19. In Eurobarometer 16 and 17, the indices as constructed reverse the coding scheme documented in the codebooks. In Eurobarometer 19 the index bears no apparent relationship to the variables which were apparently used in its construction. When analyzing this index longitudinally, users should keep in mind that the coding in surveys 16 and 17 is REVERSE of that in other Eurobarometer surveys. Corrected for ZA deliveries after March 15, 1999.
    • CHILDREN IN HOUSEHOLD (V81 and V82): For respondents from the NETHERLANDS category '9' (DK/NA) includes respondents without children (NONE). (ZA September 25, 2006)
